Madison's Big Week!!

Maddie had a fun birthday. She opened gifts before school and after school. She was able to go to Achievement Days for the first time on her birthday. It's great to be 8!!!
Maddie's "flower power" cake.
For Maddie's 8th birthday party, she invited 8 friends, and they ALL came. They ate pizza and watched Madagascar II. She had a lot of fun.
Madison's baptism was very nice. Her Grandpa Wes and Grandpa Alston wrote her talks and Lauren and Andrew read them. After she was baptized she kept saying, "I feel so happy, I feel so happy." It was really sweet.

Andrew's Photo Session

These are a few of my favorite pictures of Andrew. He has other favs, so the one you receive in his grad announcement may be different. I think he is pretty handsome.

This is Andrew's photographer, Elle.

We Finally Have a Real Snow Day!!

We finally got some real snow. We took the kids to the hill in front of SVU to sled down. It is a very big hill. There was more snow at our house but SVU had the better hill. The snow was almost gone by the time we got there. But they still had fun. Nate and Maddie were running around the yard and posing before we went sledding.
Lauren was cheesing it up for the camera.
Nate on the sled. He went quite fast. He wanted to go down face first and I said no, so when I wasn't looking, he did it anyway. He was quite the daredevil.
Maddie liked to sled down the hill by herself.
