Our sweet Grandmother

I took these pictures of my sweet grandmother just last month when she was here visiting. She is such an amazing woman and I realize how much I have learned from her and my dear Mother!! I don't get to see her much living away but love and cherish my time more than ever with her!! You know how they say some day you will do things how your mother did...... It is sooo true and I am so grateful for the relationship I have with my Mother and grandmother! I have come to appreciate now that I am a mother raising my children, the strength my grandmother possesses and the testimony she has. What a gift she is to me and my family and I hope to have many more years to love and learn from her.

Jake's baptism

Well I am a little late getting these pictures up on our blog! It is the last 2 weeks of school and it has been a little crazy being we are trying to finish up state reports,science projects,oral speechs (yes in 2nd grade!) force and motion projects, not to mention all the other craziness that goes on around here!!!

Our little Jake is growing up!!!! He turned 8 in March but we just baptized him in May because he wanted to have his grandma and grandpa there who recently returned home from their mission in South Africa. What a great day it was with all of our families, friends, aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents!! Living in California we dont get to see everyone often enough so we love to have visitors and loved having sleepovers with cousins!! How proud I am of our sweet little boy who is not so little anymore. He was so excited to get baptized!!!
