So not only are we getting ready for Aaron's up-coming deployment - we also had some important family events this weekend. Alex was baptized and Ainsley was blessed in church. Luckily we were able to combine both events into one weekend to have maximum family visit Rapid City during the winter.
I will have to say that I do feel old having a kid old enough to be baptized (the age of 8 at our church). In one more year we will hit the halfway point of Alex being in our home until college. Parenthood is going surprisingly fast.

Congratulations on these two special events. Ainsley is a doll and Alex looks so grown up! I'll be praying for you with Aaron leaving!
