Emma Discovers Balloons

 Cute Emma reaches for and grabs hold of everything lately! She had a lot of fun playing with this balloon. Micah and Emma are my little buddies while Lea and Jonah are at school. They can often be found in the kitchen with me in these very seats with Micah coloring and Emma watching him or begging for food. That girl loves to eat!

Talented, Sweet Lea

 Lea is very sweet and she is always writing poems and notes for people. For teacher appreciation week, Lea made these for her teacher. Great job sweetheart!

Serving in Sweden

Daniel's parents Stan and Roxanna were called to serve in the mission office of the Stockholm Sweden mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints for 18 months. They are courageous and obedient to what the Lord wants for them. Their example of faith inspires me and strengthens my faith! I am thankful that I have such wonderful in-laws that are kind and loving and who have great strength and strong testimonies of  the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the happiness it brings. We love you and wish you well!

Rub-a-dub-dub three kids in a tub...I love these kiddos!

Blue and Gold Dinner

 Jonah had his first Blue and Gold dinner as a Wolf Cub Scout. He loves cub scouts so far and this was a fun event. Jonah earned his Bobcat badge and I received a pin! His group did a lip sync to The Jonas Brothers "Year 3000" song and everyone brought cakes to share. I made the most delicious lemon cake with the best lemon filling and lemon meringue frosting ever! So good! And it was so fun for Daniel and I to have a night with Jonah.

Small, small, small.
