On Sunday July 5th our Oliver James was blessed by his daddy... it was such a special day! His arrival gives us much reason to celebrate... he is so loved...
It was an intimate setting and felt very special to bless Oliver in our home surrounded by those who love us most... Our Family! Glen gave Oliver a wonderful blessing and I was overwhelmed with gratefulness for this special baby and the sweet spirit he brings to our family.
Afterward We celebrated our happiness for Oliver's new life with a little party and
dinner in our backyard.

Me and my "assistant" and best friend... I could have never pulled off this celebration without Glen's powerful lungs (nearly 100 balloons!) Math skills, muscles, PATIENCE and unyielding support of my crazy ideas. Um, he's a keeper!
Oliver is a little young but I'm pretty sure he knew this was his party....
He was so content all day, just a perfect little gentleman.
Everyone made a fuss over him and he loved all the attention...

Thanks to my mom and dad who helped do EVERYTHING to make this day perfect from planning, to cleaning my house, making lists, laundry, babysitting, set up.... even some last minute yard work! I am so lucky to have them just around the corner. I am grateful that they get to love Oliver everyday.Life is all about family.
Thank You to everyone who has shown their love and excitement for us and our new little Oliver. In the few short weeks since his arrival we have been overwhelmed with love and support, phone calls, gifts, meals, messages and thoughts of love for us. We are truly blessed!
Oliver James... he's absolutely perfect, a dream come true!

You are so stinking cute! You make every event so darling. You have some serious skill! I am so sad we missed the party the other night. I swear I have missed all the parties this summer. I can't wait to play more often now that I will be in CV. When do you want to play?
