My grandfather (Papa) is still in the nursing home in George West trying to get strong enough to go home! Getting to hold the girls really lifted his spirits!

On Saturday March 7th, 2009 Ella, Addie and Nate, the three cousins, were baptised at St. Joseph's Church in Gussettville, TX. Our families have a strong connection to this tiny little spot on the Texas map. Many members of our families have been laid to rest in this cemetary. Incredibly on the James' side, family dating back to 9 generations are buried here. In fact, there were 4 gnerations represented in the church this day with Papa and Nana(pictured), Willie and Jimmy, Stacey, Shannon and Krista and Ella, Addie and Nate(pictured). On the Snider side, which is Lalee's family, we can find family members dating back at least 8 generations. We would like to thank all the family members that traveled to Gussettville this weekend to support us as we introduced our little ones to Christ. Doug's family, the Fohns, traveled in from San Angelo, Houston and Austin. The Gilmores traveled from Dallas, Edinburg and Winston-Salem, N.C.(Thank you Brett and Carol!) And the James' from Clear Lake, Pleasanton, and across FM 799. After the baptism, we all loaded up and went in town to the Buck West House in George West where we enjoyed fellowship, a nice lunch cooked by our cousin Guy Freiley and 3 cakes, 1 for each child. So, as you can see, this was a very special day for all of us...especially the three cousins. Click on the link to enjoy the movie of the baptism!
