Luke's Dedication

A special day for our little Luke went something like this...

Down to the white undershirts...just relaxing after a wonderful day!

Loving on Mummo and GG!

Lukie with his 2 Godmoms. Pretty lucky guy!

A sweater vest people... need I say more?!

" Alright all you party people...Let's head back home and eat!"

Having our family there made the day even more special...

A pic with all of the other kiddos who got either dedicated or baptized. 11 babies in all and they were all so cute. One of my favorites was a baby boy who managed to take his sock off while on stage, chew on it in his mouth, and then place it in the paster's arms. So cute!

Luke did such a great job during the entire ceremony! While Pastor was doing the opening sermon Luke stood on my knees, leaning forward, eyes on Pastor the entire time he was talking. Luke was number 4 out of 11 to go on stage to become dedicated. Dad did a great job reading the letter that we had written to Luke. We love you Bubba.

Kenzington Community Church

Troy, Michigan
" Let the children come to Me..."

Trick-or-Treat!

My bubba all dressed up and lookin' so cute.

A Morin family first...

Luke's ready!

The mane and the tail...seriously.

Luke seeing what's what.

Luke would wobble his head back and forth if his giraffe head wasn't on straight.

The mane just gets me. Dad's making last minute adjustments before we're off!

Have you ever seen a giraffe with such chunky cheeks? Seriously people, I just love to eat those cheekers...I can't get enough.

The above pic was Luke's very first house!

The crew... minus the cute, little cowgirl Jenna. :)

Fun for the whole fam. We loved walking up and saying, "Trick-or-treat for this first timer." Everyone loved seeing this little guy out there all dressed up.

All trick-or-treated out. Until next year...

Luke's loot. Not too shabby for a first timer! His Mummo (Ben's mom) made him his candy bucket...so cute.

Our first Halloween with Luke was THE BEST! The whole day was so much fun and way more exciting than I even imagined. We had a great time at Tammy and Tony's before trick-or-treating with our neighborhood crew. The kids were all so excited about their costumes that throughout the day we would get glimpses of each part of their costumes. Luke loved hanging out with his buddies and had fun looking at all of the colorful wigs. Then, we got so excited to come back to the house to get Luke ready for trick-or-treating. He looked A-dorable all bundled in his little giraffe costume and he even had a matching giraffe blankie to keep him warm. :) Then off we went to the neighborhood next door and we met up with all of the kiddie crew again. Luke stayed awake until 7:40 (10 minutes past his bedtime!) and then we brought our little pooped giraffe home.

Kelly's pregnant and Matt's engaged!

The happy couple!

Lukie and Linds watching Dad carve his pumpkin.
" Hmmmm....What exactly is this?"


"Yup. It looks edible."




Showing off Dad's skill. Very impressive!

Luke and Ali. Here's the crazy part. Ali is 2 years old, Luke is 5 1/2 months and check out their size!

Here comes the face plant.

Face plant complete.

I promise, I do feed this child.

My family.

Awwww, we love you Aunt Kelly. Can't wait to meet baby girl Beagle!

Luke loves to play peek-a-boo now! Especially when there are pretty girls around. :)

We had such a fun weekend! Both of our besties were in town to celebrate both of their big news! Kelly and Rick are expecting their sweet, baby girl March 5th and so we threw her a baby shower on Saturday. Kelly, is so beautiful preggers and she is just glowing! She, Aunt Ann, and the Beagle fam also got to meet Luke for the first time. The next day we headed north for Shanty Creek where we celebrated Matt and Linds' engagement! Matt had propsed that Friday and we are all excited for their wedding next summer. We hung out with the Heinig family celebrating the happy couple!
