Ari was baptised last month. It was really special for all of us. Grandpa and Grandma Smathers, Tyler and Matney and Rob's families were able to make it.
Uncle Tyler, as usual, was especially popular. Will his student's ever learn anything other than how to have fun?!
Dad and Ty had to get back to "work," so we had a week to play with Grandma Jo. We didn't know it when we moved here, but we have a lot of family history right here. The Comin side of our family lived here and we went and visited their graves. The leaves had started changing color and it was beautiful visiting these small country grave yards. We had almost left without finding some of the graves, but after some gps and traffic cerffafles, we ended up, providentaly, at the right grave yard. Mom found a gravestone of a Young Comin. I was standing several yards away and she lost it, she was so excited. The next contestant on the price is right has nothing on her screaming and jumping abilities! For a few hours, we even thought we had found someone we hadn't known about. Even if we didn't find any new information, it felt to me like we were standing in holy places, standing next to our kindred dead. Chase and Pierce were great while we explored too!
