FATHER & SON

BONDING

Marcus and I out at the mall with the family this weekend!

Marcus got to meet the Easter Bunny!

This weekend, Kath and Wes came into town with Noah (Jennifer and Jody were on their way back from a cruise). Kath, Wes, Noah, Sheri, Brent, Beck, Jeff, Marcus and myself all went out to dinner at Maggiano's and then headed over to Willow Bend mall so the toddlers could play on the playground. On our way into the mall was the Easter Bunny. Beck was so excited to meet the Easter Bunny that he ran up and sat next to him while another little girl and boy were trying to get ready to have their picture. It was soo cute!! He and Noah had their pictures taken with the Easter Bunny, but I wasn't sure if Marcus needed his taken. After we watched the boys play at the playground, Jeff and I left the family to take Marcus home. There wasn't anyone at the Easter Bunny, so we decided to have Marcus meet the Easter Bunny for his first Easter. He was a good little boy and just stared at the Bunny.

We are so thankful for this time of year and this little man in our lives!

Spring is here!

A lot has happened since our last post. Jeff gave me the responsibility of updating the webpage, so we will see how that goes.

The most exciting thing that has happened is that Marcus was born and is blessing our lives daily. Marcus Wesley Bishop was born 1/27/10 weighing 8 lbs 1 oz and 19.75 inches long. We are so blessed to have him in our lives.

We are so happy that the weather has warmed up and we can start doing things outside! We were able to take Marcus out to Gilmer this weekend to visit Wes and Kath and for Marcus to meet his great grandmother Nanny. It was an interesting weekend, but Marcus was able to spend a little bit of time with his Nanny. We love being out in East Texas and are excited to go back for Easter.

We are looking forward to the Dicks family coming out for Marcus's blessing in April. Mom and Dad (Rick and Jo) as well as Emily and Michael are going to be able to come out and meet Marcus and spend time with us.

Another exciting event was the birth of Chase Michael Wales. He is the son of my best friend Erin. He was born premature, so I haven't been able to meet him yet, but I am looking forward to holding this sweet boy and for him to grow up with Marcus.


Life is changing so quickly and Jeff and I look forward to all the adventures that will come with raising Marcus!
