Ashley’s Primary Lesson

Today, Ashley blew us away. Entirely on her own, and without prompting, encouragement, or help of any kind, she prepared and taught a wonderful Primary lesson about the life of Jesus Christ. Today, I am grateful for such a wonderful daughter who is an incredible example to me and all she meets of Christlike love and charity.

A7!

Our little girl is growing up so fast!  Seven years old!  We love you Ashley!

You are special today!

Those look like some happy post breakfast smiles to me!

These two buckaroos have been having joint birthday parties all along, and this year they joined together in a joint virtual birthday party.

This girl has a lot of friends and was quite generous with the invitations. Each person got a birthday bag delivered with treats and activities for the online games. Bravo Kathryn and Laura for pulling off an amazing party. I ran tech support and made sure that the kids stayed muted so there could be some semblance of order during the bingo and charades games.

And then for some reason, there was shaving cream in the bags and the parting activity was to slather it all over your face and take a picture. Turns out this was Jackson’s birthday party wish. What a geniously mischievous way to make a party sanctioned huge mess in the home of every kid at the party lol!  You’re welcome parents!

Ashley, we love you.  Can’t wait to see what this next year holds.

This is my 6th time going down.  Such a blast every time.  This is the first time with the new GoPro.  Incredible how much smoother the footage is!

Fall Family Photos

Kathryn arranged a fall photo shoot with our friend Brandy who runs DollFace Photo. We loved how they turned out. Here are some of the highlights. Can’t believe how our family is growing up.
