Meeting James William Payne

My brother, Justin & his wife Mandy had their first child on May 28th. My nephew, James William Payne (named afer both of his grandfathers) is welcomed into the Payne family by 10 other cousins!!!

We were able to make a quick trip to Memphis to meet him and visit with Justin & Mandy. We didn't want to overwhelm their family and planned for a couple of short visits, but once there, we all had such a great time visiting, that we stayed longer than planned.

Not only did we get to love all over sweet James, but we got to enjoy a couple of lunches, played washers, threw darts, and enjoyed the beautiful weather outside. What a precious time we had with family and look forward to seeing them again soon!

Sweet little James William

Julianna was a bit nervous around Kramer at first but she warmed up to him. I thought this was a funny picture


Julianna loved holding James. I have some great pictures of her with him but loved this one of her kissing him
