Evan's Baptism and 60th Anniversary Celebration!

Grand-Mayme and Grand-Daddy Earle celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary over the weekend. It was so wonderful to see all the people who came out to celebrate with them. Also exciting was that they weren't the only couple present that had been married at least 60 years! There were at least 3 other couples. :) This picture is only the Joe Tyler family.... there were LOT's of other Tylers present! Here is the John Tyler family. :) Brody was so funny at the party. The food tables were sitting right at his level and he just helped himself. I'm pretty sure that not a single person got away with food that hadn't been at least poked by him.

Evan had his big day on Sunday. The church hired a photographer and fortunately (by the grace of God) we made it on time for the 8:30 service and got our pictures taken.

Our small group that meets on Thursdays had three boys getting baptized together. Evan, Bradford and Bradford were born within a month of each other. We are so blessed to have gotten connected right away with these friends.

Evan, we are so excited to see how you grow up. God has His hand on you. You have an amazing Christian heritage from your family on all sides and to whom much is given, much is required. I pray that God fills you with His Spirit and that you never know a day without His presence in your life. We love you so much.

Psalm 103:17,18

"From everlasting to everlasting

the Lord's love is with those who fear Him

and His righteousness with their children's children-

with those who keep his covenant "

and remember to obey his precepts
