Happy Blessing, Archibalds!

So, Charlie Archibald arrived over 6 weeks ago, and he hasn't made his debut over here, maybe it's about time. Chris gave him a great blessing on Sunday and Charlie was a champ. We love the Archibalds and are very happy for their sweet addition. Congratulations.


P.S. Thanks, Renee for the great post about the Baby Gabe. The photo is awesome, too.

P.P.S. If you'd like a spotlight on your baby or child, send me a photo and description and I'll post it! Email me at mpbloggers@gmail.com!

Gabriel Matthew Conti-Brown

Nikki and Peter's baby, Gabriel made his timely entrance into the world last week on December 4th (his due date). He weighed 8 lbs. 5 oz. at birth and was 20 inches tall. Perfect! Mother and baby are at home now, and Gabe has already managed to pack on a little more weight. Nikki's mother and step-father, Janice and Galen, are here to help and take some fantastic pictures. Thanks to everyone who volunteered to bring them meals. They are much appreciated during this busy time.

DIY Night is postponed until next Year :)

Our Condolences

Joseph B. Wirthlin passed away last night of age-related causes. He has now joined his sweet wife on the other side.

May we always remember his legacy and teachings.
