Jared's Graduation


This November we celebrated Jared's Manhood Ceremony where he graduated from his studies here at home and into manhood.

Dinner at Historic Washington State Park with family


Fried chicken and chocolate cake. Yum!!!
Dad sharing about Jared's life
Will and his lovely bride-to-be, Brittany. :)
Both grandfathers shared memories they had of Jared and also some valuable insights 

Presents!
Jared is our bird man and he plans to raise chickens on his farm in the future, so we thought a chicken themed quilt would suit him well. :)
The next day we had Jared's ceremony at our church (Mount Olive Baptist)
Jared shared thoughts from Psalm 27
The grandfathers prayed a prayer of blessing over Jared
Signing the Manhood Pledge

We had a reception following the ceremony where we enjoyed pulled pork sandwiches  cookie cake, and some half-melted ice cream. :)
