It's a twister!!!!

Well, we made it through the scary rounds of storms last night! Maverick and I were home alone during the first round. We huddled in his closet while he snoozed away!

The 2nd round was really scary. The hail was coming down quickly.

In this picture you can see it on our back deck! Yikes!!

This is a picture of my little storm chaser!!

The sirens were going on and off for hours. Along with the sounds of the horrible storm it was super loud and he slept soundly the whole time!!!!

Every precious gift comes from above!

Today is a very special day in the Wolf Den b/c Maverick was baptized!

Along with lots of our family and friends, Maverick was blessed and became an official member of the Catholic church!

The1st picture is our Wolf Pack with Maverick's Godparents!

Aunt Sarah and Uncle Tyler.

Both of these two people are very special to our little family. They have been our dearest friends for many years. We couldn't imagine asking anyone to step into this special role for our child. Sarah and Tyler are truly the best friends that Matt and I could ask for!

Father Brian, who is a visiting priest, baptized Maverick. He was very nice and did a great job!!

After the baptizm we had a small reception at the Elk's. This is the cake that Matt and I made at midnight last night!! (Yes, we are procrastinators!)

I tried to get a picture of Maverick in his baptism outfit. This is the best one I could get.

Everyday I thank God for my little family and all of the blessings in my life.

Maverick is the greatest blessing that Matt and I could ask for!

And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
(Mark 10:13-16 ESV)
