How can it be that 20 years ago today that we brought home this adorable little guy…
We were young (16 and 18) and scared to death…
Many, many people said we wouldn’t make it…

(Shooting at Nationals for small bore pistol in 4H.)
But, oh how love grows…
By the good grace of God.
Happy 20th birthday wishes to Sawyer! We are so proud of the young man you are…

A wonderful post 🙂 You guys were so young when you had him! You have an amazing family and I’m so glad you proved the naysayers wrong. How many children did you actually end up with by the way?
We have 8 and will be adding a daughter-in-law next May!
That’s amazing! I have one little girl but I’m hoping to be blessed with a few more 🙂

Wow..you were young and still are… This is a wonderful post. Happy Birthday…. Michelle
Great set of family pictures, (and the bears are a great family too).
We started our family at the other end of the age scale – so now I have a 8 and a 10 year old!
