I finally got to meet Abram Jose Grimsley. So here we get the first ever pictures of him on the Meneses Spot 

Paxton's Baptismal

Paxton was baptized on Saturday in Tulare. A bunch of us got together later to eat a big lunch in Terra Bella.

 

Here's a picture of Jim and Sawyer from a few weeks ago that I thought I could put up here.

Happy Halloween!!

I'm going to bombard you with pictures again, so here goes. If you have any others send them to me so I can put them up here. Thanks, we hope you all had a safe and fun weekend. . .

Drew was going for the candy even if he didn't know what it was.

Here's a not so scary Jack O' Lantern.

Josh and Connor had a great time driving around trick or treating.

Paxton the Lion got to go trick or treating, but his mom will probably eat the candy.

So we all had a good time trick or treating and watching football afterwards. Thanks to Gabe and Lisa for inviting us over for a fun halloween.

MISSISSIPPI GIRLS

Liz, Megan and Rachel will be here for Christmas.
With Liz and the girls coming home, lets make it a special Christmas for them.
If you would like to get something for the girls I'll post a wish list with sizes.
Thanks,
Gabe

Abram Jose Grimsley

Congratulations to Scott and Veronica on the new baby boy!!! He was born last Sunday? Sorry it's taken so long to get a new post on here. I was hoping we'd have a picture to share up here, but I haven't been able to get one yet. If anyone has one I hope they'd send it to me. Good luck Mateo with the new brother.

Sawyer Duncan Koontz!!

Sawyer Duncan Koontz is here!! He arrived today sometime after 6:00 pm. Here's the first of many pictures that will find there way up onto the blog. He's a very cute guy, and the family is all doing well.

More Good News

First of all, a big Happy Birthday to Lisa, her special day is Friday October 7th. Give her a call and wish her a Happy Birthday!

I have some really great news to share. Danielle is engaged! She and her fiance Kevin have taken the plunge and set a date. May 17th, 2008, so we have lots of time to save to make the trip. Let's pray that they can come out soon so we can meet this guy.
Congratulations Danielle and Kevin. We are all really happy for you.

October News

Well, we're still waiting for the new babies to arrive. Caroline is scheduled to deliver on Thursday, and I haven't heard news on Veronica. But soon we should have two more little boys in the family. If you have any news post it here so we can pass it along.
We should have some new pictures to put up by the weekend. . .

. . . Any news on Liz and the girls??? If someone is organizing a care package will they let us know how to help?

Okay, well everyone take care.

This wasn't at the Wedding, but it's a great picture of Josh and Drew

Thank You

Cathi and I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who came to the wedding, and for all the help everyone gave. We hope you all had a good time, we'll remember the day forever.

If you have any pictures of the wedding please do email them to me so I can put them up here. I don't want to look conceited by only putting up pictures of us. Thanks again, I promise not to get emotional this time

Mark & Cathi's vows 

Something for Aunt Liz

I wanted to let everyone know that I'm going to bring a card to the wedding for Aunt Liz. I'll do the rounds with it and everyone can sign it and give her a message. If you also want to put some cash in it, we will get an address and send it to her and the girls right away. Even if you can't give any cash, please sign it, I'm sure knowing everyone is thinking of them will give them comfort. They were only able to take one suticase each so they are probably in need of a lot of things.
See you all at the wedding.
Alli

Happy Birthday John

Just wanted to say Happy Birthday to John Meneses today. We all hope you had a great day and have many more to come.
*********************************************

We also want Aunt Liz and the girls to know that they are in our thoughts and prayers. Liz and the girls are safe and staying in Tennesee. The next few months are going to undoubtedly be very difficult for them and they are going to need continued support from us. If anyone would like to arrange to do something for them, we think that would be a good idea. Put it up on the blog or send out an email.
