Rainbow Delight!

Kate was so excited to turn four and have a rainbow birthday party.  It was a perfect success but with ten four years olds there, I was quickly reminded why I never was a preschool teacher!  Everything we did was colorful of course.  We made fruit loop necklaces, played with colorful play dough and even had magic rainbow punch!  They just couldn't figure out how every glass of pop poured out a different color.  That magic alone would have kept them busy all day!  Kate had a wonderful time celebrating with her friends!

She's Eight!

Kayla is our sweet mild mannered girl.  She keeps the peace at our house by staying calm, helping out and making us smile!  She easily goes with the flow of things and is happy all the day.  Her true talent is fashion.  Every day she puts together the cutest outfits complete with accessories.  And often times she not only does it for herself but for Lilah, Kate and Mom!  We are so thankful to have her sweet attitude in our home.  We are also thankful she made the choice to be baptized.  It has been fun to see her testimony grow as she matures.

We were all so excited to have our first visitors here in Arizona and just in time for Kayla's baptism.  It was fun to show them all of our favorite things and that they could share the special day with us.  Both Jeremy and my parents came along with Aunt Nikki with Cade, Austin and Kip and Aunt Michelle with Jake.  We had to best time swimming, toasting marshmellows, feeding the fish and turtles and visiting together.
