Baby Dash

We were so lucky that we were able to make a quick trip down to Jacksonville while on vacay to see Jenny and her PRECIOUS baby! Dasher Everett is beautiful and I'm in love. I wish I could see him every day. And see Jenny every day. She looked fabulous and Dash was only 3 weeks!

I love the history behind Dash's name. Dasher comes from Derek's family who settled Dasher, GA. Not only did these Scots settle the land, they also established the church there. Derek and Jenny felt that this was heritage that should be honored (amen). Everette is after Jenny's dearest "Uncle" Ted. Uncle Ted suddenly passed away while we were in college. Everette was his middle name and also means "strength." I love names that have family and sentimental connections! Good job JD.

Okay on to the pictures...I'm warning you Dash is super yumminess!!!

Hey, I am getting that small world vibe again. I know some Dashers in Valdosta/Dasher and went to Bible camp there as a kid. My brother has been camp director there for years AND my uncle preached there for years. We may all be related.

Thanks for coming to see us!!! It was amazing. If any reader wonders why Hil and Justin are holding Dash with a towel underneath, it's the risk of a blowout diaper. Ha! Fortunately, they didn't have to find out about it.
