Goofy School Pictures

School Pictures should be illegal. And while we're banning things, how about faux-hawks as well...

If you've ever been to the beautiful desert of Lancaster, you know it can be WINDY! I took the kids there over Spring Break to see two of my sisters. We decided a nice family walk along the aqueduct would be fun. We lasted about 10 minutes and it was FREEEEEZING! And when the wind blew Sienna over, causing her to skin her knee and rip her cute purple pants, we were done. Conner was the warmest! Sienna & Jonnae

It's Great to be Eight!

Braden was baptized on Saturday. It was a great day. Braden asked his Uncle Jon to baptize him. His Dad gave a talk on baptism and performed the confirmation. Grandpa Jan gave a talk on the Holy Ghost. And it wouldn't have been Braden, if he didn't make us laugh. After his baptism, while he was still in the font, he swam a few victory laps. I like the way Uncle Dave said it best, "the swim party that ensued immediately following the sacred ordinance!" Conner so cute in a suit. :o) Uncle Jon thought it would be fun to have a "missionary-style" baptism picture. Uncle Jon, Aunt Ashley, and Aunt Shelby sang "Baptism" and it was beautiful. Here's the family! Afterwards, Grandpa Jan took us to our favorite Saturday lunch spot, Denny's! There were 21 of us on this big day, and Grandpa thought it would be a great idea to have the kids sit at their own table. They were really good, but I think they ordered two meals, a soda, and an ice cream shake each!

Braden's Birthday

Braden's birthday was March 20. Naturally, we started the day with birthday donuts! We enjoyed a birthday lunch at Denny's with Grandpa, and lame mom forgot the camera. Braden chose Round Table for his birthday dinner. Here he is with dad... And here he is with Sienna, me and RJ... Conner was there too! And we can't forget the fabulous beard and mustache stickers from the candy machines! After dinner, Braden got to pick out ice cream at the store and we had delicious hot fudge sundaes. With brownies, of course. And just so you know, Ryan is the BEST when it comes to building hot fudge sundaes. :o) This is only the beginning of all the celebration hoopla for Braden's 8th birthday! There is LOTS more to come!
