Macy's Blessing

We held off on having Macy's blessing until the weekend of Greg's commissioning so Greg's mom and dad could be here for two events in one trip. They enjoyed meeting the newest member of the family and we enjoyed having them stay with us for a few days.

There isn't really much to say about the blessing, I suppose, but Macy looked beautiful in her white dress and Greg did an excellent job. I couldn't believe how calm he was about it--it's the kind of thing that would have had me crazy with nerves.

Here's a slideshow of pictures we took that day.

[Edit: I took down the slideshow to open up storage space. But here's a great picture!]


After the blessing, Jeff gave Greg the beating he promised him. (He told him he'd salute him for his commissioning, then beat him up.)

Greg put up a pretty good fight despite his disadvantage in size.

Macy is so beautiful! Are you sure you don't want to stay here so that we can play more? Oh well I guess someday we might end up on the same base right?! We want to have you all over before you leave this next week! :)

It's so good to hear that my best friend is having a good time. Promise me you'll come back to visit you crazy little girl! Oh, and always remember everything I taught you when you're feeling lonely.
