1st Birthday Party

On Saturday our family and friends gathered at the park to celebrate Grant's first birthday. Here is Grant with his bubble lawnmower he received from the Emmertsons - his favorite Alabama cousins. He loves to motor around.

The Blessing

This past Sunday we had our family and friends over to our home for a baby welcoming ceremony. It was a special day filled with lots of snow and lots of spirit. The Reverend Carruthers MC'd, Josh gave Grant a blessing and Amanda sang a song. Grant knew it was his special day and was smiling with his guests. We are so fortunate to have Grant Montgomery Cowart in our lives and are blessed by his handsome hart.
