Recap

No, we have not fallen off the face of the earth. We've just been really busy and enjoying time with family from out of town. Early in the month Jeremiah's mom came and then my parents came. It was great having everybody here and great that it worked out around Anthony's baptism. We had lots of fun playing, getting spoiled, visiting, and did I mention getting spoiled?
After two weeks of Grandmas and Grandpa it was hard to get back into our usual boring routine.

Anthony's baptism was a wonderful event. It was great to have all the family members participate. Michaela lead the music and sang a musical number, Natalie, even though she was scared gave the opening prayer, Grandpa Roy gave a talk on baptism, Grandma Vicki gave a talk on the Holy Ghost, Trevor sang "I Am A Child Of God" for a musical number, Grandma Cindy gave the closing prayer, and Abigail pretty much ran around the room.

The handsome eight-year old in his new suit!

All of us!

With not very nice weather and keeping up with the kids school and homework, we pretty much stayed close to home and played.

When Grandpa was reading his own book the kids would grab a book and do some reading too!


Grandma Cindy got the job of labeling all 27 hats that Natalie took into her Kindergarten class for their hat collection.


Anthony and Grandpa spent lots of time on the floor building with legos.

So, we had a great visit with our family and it was hard to say goodbye, especially when there are no summer travel plans this year. Thank goodness for modern technology that makes it easier to keep in touch! It's not the same as a visit but it's better than nothing!
