Chocolate Covered Strawberries for Valentine's Day!

 Whitney invited us over to dip strawberries in yummy, yummy chocolate, her tried and true recipe!  The girls had so much fun helping out.  They were more than willing to join in on the fun!  Whitney found the biggest most delicious strawberries at Sam's club.  It was fun to watch how it is done, a week later I was craving them again so Emmy and Sophia helped dip strawberries for Nana's birthday!!

Brodyn's Baptismal Day!

Brodyn was baptized on Saturday, February 1, 2014.  He was so excited for this big day.  It was most anticipated!  I had so many mixed feelings about this day.   I was so excited, so sad that he's grown, and so in shock to be the parent of an 8yr old!  I knew this day would be very emotional for me so I really tried to make it as simple and stress-free as we could!  I just really wanted to remember this moment and help Brody remember it, because there is very little I remember about my big day!!  I was so proud of this little boy.  I was happy he was so excited.  I felt so blessed to have him in my life.  He is such a blessing and gift to our family!  We decided to break from the tradition of hosting a luncheon ourselves.  Brodyn loves Chuck-a-Rama, so we told every one that we were celebrating there and if they wanted to join us they were more than welcome to come!!  It was a simple, spiritual, spectacular day!!  Brodyn I hope you remember this day always, and know how much you are loved!
