Heath's Dedication

*Special thanks to Holly A. for these pictures.*

So, so glad to have my Schaper grandparents here for this special day.

Dedicatin' is hard work! :>)

Silly Grace

she has been trying her hand at photography lately. This is a self portrait she took.

We went to a pumpkin patch . . .

Look how big Heath looks!

My kids and Hadlee with the pumpkins they chose. It was pretty cool and really windy, but we had a great time.

COMPANY!!!

We *heart* company! And especially company like Papa and Nana, Uncle Kenny, Uncle Andrew and Aunt Sherilyn! They arrived Monday night, then Tuesday we went to the zoo (where I forgot my camera). It was a lot of fun - the orangutan was really putting on a show for us. Heath kept saying Da Da while looking at the apes. . . it was just a great time. :>)

On Wednesday we went to the OKC bombing memorial. (pictured above)

Love Heath's look here - I can almost hear his belly laugh now. ;>)

A wedding on Monday

It was great to celebrate the marriage of a couple in our church, Shawn and Crystal. We love them so much - it was a privilege to be a part of their wedding day!

Our Sunday 10-18

All ready for church and still happy = success!

We thought we were joining a church family for lunch today till after church it was announced that we would be having fellowship dinner honoring the pastor and his family! What a surprise!

The Speech ;>)

Unveiling the money tree.

Another little guy wanted in the picture . . .

Wow!

After we untied the money, Gracie really wanted to keep the tree for a second Christmas tree. We're still working on convincing her otherwise, but she did play that it was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil - complete with Darrell Lee's belt as the serpent. I think that's what they talked about in children's church today.

Thanks to our church family for making us feel very spoiled. :>) We love all of you so much!

We can't wait to see Darrell's parents and Kenny and Andrew and Sherilyn tomorrow! They will be here in OK through next Sunday and we will dedicate Heath then as well.
