The Long Awaited Update - A First Easter with Alyson Dawn


Well, here's the much asked for Alyson Dawn update for ya'll - we had a fun filled and very blessed Easter - trust you did, as well!!!
Some have asked, ''Does Alyson have red hair?'' The answer is ''No'', although in certain lighting and through some camera lens, it appears to have a reddish tint. It is really still quite dark almost a black/brown... especially along the neck line. It has however, begun to lighten on the top to more of a light brown, with just a 'glint' of red. The undertones of her skin are not at all like those of a would-be redhead, though.
I believe she'll take well to the sun later in life, unlike me who has always burnt before tanning, she'll probably tan very easily and not burn. Oh well, just thought I'd answer those that have asked... Can't wait for all of ya'll to "meet" her in person, she's getting quite the personality now and keeps us in stitches at times!
This slide show are photos that were taken during our Easter Week... Easter Sunday at Mamaw Smith's, a few of Alyson in her new-for-Easter 'Bumbo Seat', a couple of her with her baby doll in the 'Swing', our 'Napping Angel', etc. !!!ENJOY!!!





Here are a few lyrics to a song that has been very meaningful to us during this sacred Season... what a wonderful thought to think that not even death could hold OUR King!

Then the stone moves,
The earth shakes
And birds start singing,
The sun shines,
The earth warms
For new life it's bringing;
A little boy stops crying,
A mother is smiling,
For death could not hold their King.

Jesus Christ is RISEN... He is risen, indeed!
