Happy 5th Birthday Kade!

Kade is growing up to be such a fantastic boy. He's fun, talkative, doesn't back down, always has a smile on his face, never likes what is for dinner, loves his family & friends, center of attention, loves being a big brother, and is a mammas boy. We love Kade and couldn't imagine this family without him.

For his birthday this year, he wanted smoothies for breakfast, to go to 7 peaks, then went to lunch at Burger King, played with friends, then we went to Chuck E Cheese with the Moodys and Jenny and Paige for dinner. It was a busy fun day!

Mother Daughter Ice Cream Social

Church Mother Daughter Social. We made hats, neckalaces, letters, and ate loads of ice cream. I had a blast with my two favorite girls.

Camping at Utah Lake

Right before school started we decided to go camping last minute. The only campground open was at Utah Lake. We had lots of fun the first day but the second night there was a crazy wind storm. It was so windy our ten was almost flattened. And then there were thousands of nasty bugs, ick. We ended up packing up late that night, Paul took our gear to his brother's and we took off home.

A Sunday Drive

Nana and Poppy came up for the baptism and on Sunday we decided to take a drive through the Alpine loop. It was gorgeous!

It's great to be 8

Kylie and Bailey turned 8 and in our church, when a child turns 8 they get to choose whether to be baptized. Kylie and Bailey each made the choice themselves and decided to be baptized. It was a great day and we are so proud of them and hope they always remember how great they felt.

 Our family.

Bailey

Dad baptized both girls. Kylie was baptized first and Bailey was confirmed first.

Understanding the covenants they are going to make.

It was a great day!

Happy 8th Birthday Kylie and Bailey

I can't believe my two little babies are already eight and going into the 2nd grade. They are such good girls. On their birthday they wanted poptarts for breakfast, In-n-out for lunch (milkshakes of course), went to see Rio in the afternoon (w/ mom and their brothers), then out to dinner to NY Pizza. Afterward, we invited the Barons over for cake and ice cream. It was a fantastic day and we couldn't be more proud of these two beautiful (inside and out) girls.
