Websters celebrate SPRING BREAK!

 We have new photos of Alyssa and her children's time in South Carolina. On March 29th, Kelly shared that Mama Jane would like some prayers as she has five weeks of radiation to go through.

A few days ago, we shared part one of the Thanksgiving photos and today we are sharing new photos at the farm.

If you are wondering about the farm, it's Papa Bill and Mama Jane's home.

more photos of Websters

Yesterday, we shared new photos of the Webster family with Papa Bill and Mama Jane. We also shared photos of John, Alyssa, Allie and Lexi with Papa Bill and Mama Jane. Today we are going to share photos of Zoey and Maci with Papa Bill and Mama Jane.

We love this photo of Zoey with her great-grandparents.

We love this photo of Maci with her great-grandparents. We can't believe that we are getting closer to her first birthday

Websters visit great grandparents

We have some new photos of the Webster family visiting Papa Bill and Mama Jane to share prior to Nathan and Esther's wedding.

Alyssa revealed that this was the first time that Maci got to meet her great-grandparents. Maci was born in February 2021.

John revealed that on his intsagram that his grandparents have passed but he is happy that his girls have Alyssa's grandparents to visit.

Many of the family have spend time with papa Bill and Mama Jane in the past so this trip was a great time for both families.

Allie is getting so big. It's hard to believe that she will be seven in April.

Lexi is getting ready to celebrate her birthday in January.

Be sure to stay tune tomorrow for pictures of both Zoey and Maci with Papa Bill and Mama Jane.
