Kira's Baptism

 Kira was Baptized the first weekend in March 2012. We were so excited for her and so proud of her for making the decision to be baptized. She had been pretty nervous to be baptized and kept telling us she didn't want to do it a few months prior to her birthday. December came and went without Kira getting baptized. She was sure that it was just too scary to go through with it. After a couple months we took Kira over to the stake center to look into the baptismal font. She and Seth walked down into the empty font. He demonstrated how he would hold her and what would happen. She looked up to us and said, "Is that it?" Just being able to visualize what everything would be like put her fears to rest. Her baptism was a sweet, happy day.

 Some outdoor shots of Kira before her baptism. I love the snow behind reflecting with her white dress. I am so glad you were able to conquer your fears Kira and decide to get baptized. I love you very much and love watching you grow. You are so loving to everyone in this family and love to speak and show your love to all of us every day. Remember that Heavenly Father loves you and wants you to return to Him. Thank you for being such a fun, good girl!

Valentines Day 2012

Ah Valentines Day...the funnest day to dress up our sweeties! Once we got the kids off to school Brandalyn and I snapped some pictures of these little girls. Aren't they the cutest?
They were so happy and posed for the camera so nicely. Why can't they always do this?
But then of course we can't make it through the day without putting dresses ups on, so Alayna became Minnie Mouse and Anastyn a pink valentine princess:)
Suckers first...then cookies. Only sweet things to eat on Valentines Day!
Decorating, then eating!!   


This was Brynn's Valentine's Box for 6th grade. It was a big Birthday cake. She had fun making it.


When Friends Come to Town

Look at all our cute friends! Girls, girls, girls! how did I get so lucky to be showered with girls? I just love it. It has been a year since these pictures have been taken, so I'm not sure which visit this is, but Rachel Cook and Livvy ended up showing up on the same weekend, so that meant lots of playing, squealing and face painting. It was definitely not warm enough for outdoor play, so an indoor pool party was in order.


Cute Little shot of our ladies: Rachel, Brynn, Taeya and Brynlie

So Taeya received face paint for Christmas and the girls decorate each other every chance they get. I'm just not sure what my two girls are supposed to be!


Random cuteness:)

Hey hot stuff! Love your shades:). This is just a collection of some pictures of Alayna being cute.

Alayna managed to put these flip flops on by herself. They are a little tall for me too!

Trying on winter clothes. Not sure where her normal ones are though!

Down below I was trying to get a cute shot of Alayna before church. It just wasn't going to happen!


She got herself all dressed up and was going somewhere...


Trying hard to fit both cute ladies in Anastyn's car. Cute chubby cheeks:)

I love this one. She is about 2 1/2 exactly here. 
She definitely put her own outfit together!
CHEESE!!
What???
Just being me. Loving every minute!
