Wade's Blessing

This past weekend we blessed our sweet little Wade. We were fortunate to have lots of family come into town for the occasion. It was great to see everyone! Throughout the day on Saturday everyone started arriving and by dinner time our house was full! We had Grandpa and Grandma DeFries, Uncle Eric, Aunt Maren, Nate's Grandma and Grandpa DeFries, Nate's Aunt Diane, Grandpa and Grandma Jacobson, Aunt Jen, Uncle Jason and Aunt Mary, and Cousins Tyson, Ryder, and Kyler.  We ordered pizza, made homemade ice cream, and despite the cramped quarters, everyone enjoyed visiting and passing around baby Wade.

On Sunday we took up two full rows at church. Our friend Christian and Steph came up from Mountain View and our friend Dave came with Liz to the meeting. We are really blessed to have such supportive family and friends.  After the meeting we all met up at a park by our house to have a picnic lunch. The weather was perfect for us. Thanks to Grandma DeFries who had been staying with us for the week for helping us think through everything and put together the food.  Soon after lunch everyone had to leave. It was a short weekend, but we were glad to be able to catch up with everyone.
