On the Saturday before Veteran's we had a day of service at Bay Pines VA. Some of the families helped with the grounds keeping and gardening. The children took some time to make cards for the veterans. When they were done making their cards they sang in a choir for the veterans. They sang songs such as America the Beautiful. It was special to hear Cannon sing them proudly!

Afterwards we headed across St. Pete to visit my friend Rachel who just had her baby. She went into early labor on Friday, but her husband was still out of town. I stayed with her on Friday to keep her company until it was time to have the baby. Our other friend Elisabeth was able to be with her during her C-section and I anxiously waited in the room for little Eli's arrival! Since he was born just shy of 36 weeks, we were worried that he would have to go to the NICU. But he was a perfect 6lbs 3oz! It was special to be there right after he was born.

I love seeing Cannon up there like a big kid singing along. Baby Eli is precious as well. It's a good birthday!
