Happy 16 Josh!

At our house, when it is your birthday, you get to choose where you want to have your birthday dinner and what kind of cake you want mom to make for you. This year Josh chose to eat at Granny Annies all of the way up in Kaysville.

After the long drive, Josh ordered a scone "the size of a small baby". He also ate a cinnamon roll that size as well as a plate of hashbrowns.

Can't believe that 16 years have gone by since he chose to come and be a part of our family.

Happy Birthday Josh- We love you! ( I guess you can see what kind of cake he requested.)

Bingham Ball...Josh's First Date

Josh and Taryn made cookies blindfolded earlier today. After the dance they are going to go play games and eat the cookies.

Brad usually interviews Valesca's dates when they come to pick her up. Since this was a girls choice dance, I had to interview Joshua's date. She got BROWNIE POINTS because she brought ME these flowers! We hope that Josh has a good experience on his first date.

Valesca and Robert had fun this morning as he was kidnapped and taken to breakfast. They

are going to the new Brick Oven for dinner and after the dance they will be having sundaes and playing games.

Receiving my Honor Bee

Last night was our Young Women in Excellence night. Valesca was conducting the meeting and she did a presentation about me as I received the Honor Bee Award. Since I am a Young Women leader I felt the need to work on this by giving 40 hours of service and reading the Book of Mormon again. They tell me that I am the first leader in the Stake to receive this.

10 Year Celebration

It has now been 10 YEARS since we moved into our home! (And we still have problems with the yard, the basement isn't finished...and where is my Craft Room?)

I Can See!!!

Elijah finally received his new glasses today- and now he is realizing all of the things he wasn't able to see.
