Chad and Melanie's Reception

Yesterday, the 3 of us drove to Hinkley, Ohio for a beautiful outdoor wedding reception for Anson's cousin Chad and his wife Melanie. We don't get to see them a lot because they live in N.C. Chad is training for the Army and will leave for Thailand or Iraq this Fall. We visited with Aunt Margaret, Uncle Larry, Cousin Kim and her husband Terry and their 3 kids as well. It was really nice to see everyone since we don't see much of that side of the family.

Baby Girl and her blue eyes

Grandma Bonnie enjoyed holding Lily, feeding her and rocking her. She's a grandma, a great grandma and works in her church's nursery.
