Baptism...s

It has been the month for baptisms here in Colorado.  My poor mother and father went from house to house when all these little ones were born.  Collin was born February 25th, McKayla was born February 28th, Azlyn and Sarandon were born March 20th and Cerra was born May 10th.  Now they are all being baptized within one month.

We are just missing one... baby Cerra... or I guess she is not a baby anymore.  She will be eight soon like the rest of these cute kids!  Collin's baptism was wonderful.  Lots of family and friends that packed the room.  He also had the opportunity to be baptized with a girl in our ward who's family has just become active again.  There was a choice spirit there at the meeting.

I was so afraid one of the kids would fall in. There wasn't a glass wall there to prevent this.  Luckily we all have good balance and stayed dry.

I think he looks cute... all wet!

A great treat was to have Collin's great grandma Mack there.  We loved having her come.

Thanksgiving

For some reason I have no pics of the actual feast, but here are some highlights of the holiday. Eric's sister Ruthie/hubby/baby Shante , Eric's brother Adam/wife/kids, Eric's mom, and Eric's dad all joined us for Thanksigiving dinner.  It was nummy!

Early christmas gifts made by Eric's sister Ruthie-- we love to cook and my kids love to fight over aprons.  Problem solved!

My older brother Meredith and his family came to celebrate Thanksgiving with Kendra & Jason. Love them!

Yummy desserts!

Funeral

Eric's brother Jared & his wife Janelle have a son named Tyson.  He had the cutest curly blonde hair you have ever seen.  He had so many special needs, but fulfilled one special need for all of us... to change our lives forever. Tyson will be missed.

Padres Game 6/8/09

Thought it would be fun to go to a Padres game while in San Diego.

Are we having fun yet?

This is how much fun we are having!

Well, at least we got to spend time with Grandpa Mack and Uncle Levi!  Better luck next time, Padres!

San Diego Temple 6/7/09

Random pics from our visit to San Diego.   We love to see the temple!  Collin is always posin'!

Eric's cool sister, Kristin!  And she is not just cool because she wears shades!

Kendra kept reaching to pick the flowers.

My boys... actually sitting still for a quick moment!
