Baby Z

This morning at 10:51 mountain daylight savings time, little Alice Azalea Gibbons made her entrance into the world! She is 8 pounds 3 ounces and 20 inches long. She now takes her place as our 4th granddaughter and 15th grandchild. I was very excited that I was invited to be at the birth. Melissa and Zaley both did their jobs well to get her here is perfect condition.  

Welcome, beautiful Zaley, our Baby Z. 

 

Jason will be a wonderful daddy to Zaley just as he is to Adam

Cheyenne & Dakota

I'm really behind on my 52 week project....like a month behind....so I'll have to catch up fast. But Cheyenne's wedding is one reason I've been so busy, because I have been making bridesmaid dresses - 6 of them plus 2 flower girl dresses. I LOVE to sew!  I was glad to make the dresses and I was especially grateful for the help that Sister Appel and Sister Kennedy offered,  but I was so nervous that, with only one fitting, that those dresses would fit the girls. On the appointed day I sent the dresses with a little bag of safety pins just in case. When I got to the wedding, the girls looked beautiful and hopefully only my critical eye discerned any fitting errors.

The wedding ceremony took place at Oak Hammock on the ranch, near the swimming hole. It was a beautiful location and Cheyenne looked absolutely radiant!
