Brianna's baptism

Brianna and her cousin Hallie were baptized on the same day. One right after the other.  It was so fun to have them baptized together.  Richard and Aileen came from California.  and Russ and Danielle from Vegas,  and my parents from Arizona.  There was so much family in town.  We had to celebrate!

Gracie's Birthday Party


When I asked Gracie who she wanted to invite  to her birthday party this year,  she named all of the neighborhood dogs.  We finally agreed on inviting only one of the dogs Maggie instead of 5 dogs.  I almost did though,  but Blair didn't know where to put all of them in our house,  so we ended up actually inviting her friends. She would have been in heaven though.  
Her friend Hallie that is standing up in this picture actually vanished in the middle of the birthday party. We couldn't find her anywhere.  I ran down to her house down the street,  and found out that she bailed because she was afraid of Maggie.
