Hudson was as perfect and precious as possible. As Ryan and Ashley were kneeling across the altar to be sealed as an eternal family, Hudson at just the right moment, put his little hand right on top of his mom's and dad's. He knew exactly what to do!

Steff

I think the expression on Sean's face says that he is surprised with the speed of the boat and the size of the wake! A little more than he is used to!

Tanner just getting started!

We love to be on the lake in the boat with the family when the weather is warm!
