Dean's picture was included in this ad for the photographer that came out in this month's Denton Connection magazine. We are pretty proud of him for smiling so cute!

We went to visit Nanamaw (Dean's great-grandmother), Fama (Dean's great-great aunt), and all the rest of the Hannabas crew this week. John stayed home to work so we missed being away from him. This was Dean's second trip to west Texas and he was the perfect traveler (other than making us stop to change his dirty diapers!). Nanamaw crocheted Dean a small yellow blankie to travel with while we were there. She made it in a day...she is a wonder with that hook and yarn! He LOVES it...it is just his size! He had so much fun watching his cousin Abigail play. She loved "trading" toys with Dean or sometimes not trading. She is so cute and is learning to say so many things. We hope to visit everyone again soon!

Our first night at the beach, Ben proposed to Katherine on a walk and we got to celebrate with them afterwards! He gave her a georgeous diamond ring (that she wasn't allowed to wear while in the ocean!). We were so excited for them and can't wait for the wedding in June 2008!!
