You're Invited...

To Meet Eli!

Because we know how much you want to see him alive and thriving, too!

Assuming all goes well this week and our boy is healthy... we would like to invite you to our place next Sunday, May 8th in the afternoon for a Meet Eli Day! It's going to be drop in whenever you'd like, nothing formal, but finally a chance for many of you to at least see our boy! We'll have some little snacks for you to enjoy, too.

We would also like to invite you to join us at Riverbend Community Church for Eli's baby dedication happening at the 11:00am service on the same day (Sunday, May 8th - also Mother's Day!). We would love for you to join us in this very special service where we take time to praise God for His faithfulness and grace towards us in allowing us to have Eli and where we commit to raising him to love Jesus, too.

The service will be done around 12:15 or 12:30pm. If you want to join us for the Meet Eli Day that afternoon, stop by our house anytime from 2:00 - 4:00pm that day. I'll try really hard for him to be fed and napping during that time, but we'll see! Regardless, join us for a few minutes if you would like! Our parents and Auntie Amy will be here so you'll be able to meet and greet them, too.

We look forward to seeing you again friends!

Oh and one more important note: Please, please don't feel obligated to buy our boy a gift. If you want to, that's fine... just know we don't expect it one iota. He has enough 0-6 month clothes (thanks to some great hand-me-downs from sweet friends!)... so try refrain from that for sure! But it is so hard not to buy those adorable little onesies! I know! We did an amazon registry which you can find here or by going to www.amazon.com/babyregistry and searching for our names so feel free to use that as a guide if you are so inclined. But no worries!

Now to eat some lunch, feed my boy and take a little naaaapppp.....zzzzzz.....
