Blessing Day, July 4th

We blessed Melissa on July 4, 2010. It was a beautiful day and we were surrounded by wonderful friends and family. We couldn't have asked for a better day. Kevin blessed her and gave her a beautiful blessing. We are so grateful for our little Melissa. She is a great blessing in our lives.

Missy is ready for her close up.
Very proud Mom and Dad.

Welcome Home Elder Chadwick

Welcome Home Elder Chadwick. Kirk returned home on June 23, 2010, from the Florida Jacksonville Mission. We were very excited for him to come home. A few things had happened since he left. Mainly for me, I got married only a few months after he left and then we had a baby one month before he came home. I think he was excited anyway. We love you Elder Chadwick.


Kirk getting to hold Melissa for the first time. I think he is a proud uncle.


Laura made this poster for Kirk to welcome him home. It is of the Florida flag.

Melissa Raquel Arnold

Our Little Melissa arrived on May 22, 2010 at 1:23 am. She weighed 8 lbs 1 oz and was 20 inches long. It was a fairly fast delivery. Only 3 pushes and she was out. We are very grateful to have her here.
