School dance festival.

So I braved the trip to the kids school with four other kids counting Brookelynn to see the dance festival they put on every year. The kids did such a good job and they love and look forward to it every year. My friend Jen was there too to see her son and loaned me her video camera so I will post the videos later.


Jenna and her friend Amber.

Salem Pond. Sunday picnic

The day before my birthday we took the kids to Salem pond for a Sunday picnic. We went intending on feeding the ducks but it was warm enough to play in the pond so the people playing in the pond scared the ducks away and the rest of the pond was full of fishermen so need less to say the few ducks there were didn't want our bread because they had enough from all the other people who wanted to feed the ducks. So we ate and played instead.

Brady's Baptism

So we finally got Brady baptized on May 2nd with the way conference fell they moved Baptisms up a week and we were not ready for that. So he was baptized on May 2nd by his dad and confirmed by his grandpa Alvey. We are blessed to have a kid as good as Brady. He always tries to do the right even if mom and dad want to skip church he still gets ready and goes. What a good example he is.
