So no great pictures this week just wanted to give a shout out to my GNO girls! I love you ladies!! Always look forward to seeing all of you and catching up on life's happenings!! Last night was a blast as usual, although I am a little tired......go figure when you are use to going to bed at 10 or 10:30 .........1:30 is a little late!! I will survive!!

This week has been a good one not much going on which never seems to happen. We have been enjoying the warm weather...getting to play outside all that good stuff!! We did go to Kangaroo Zoo on Wednesday, always a hit with the kidlins!! Going to hit the Flash game tonight once again a huge hit for the kids. It is nice that they are getting a little older and we can do things like that and actually enjoy it and not just survive it. I felt that way for years..just surviving the occasional outing!! Having a 2 1/2 year old as the youngest is wonderful!!

Adelyn's Special Day

Last weekend Adelyn made the decision that she wanted to be baptized. We are very proud of her. She took this decision very seriously. We really wanted her to understand that we get baptized because we have a testimony of the church and are ready to take upon his name and represent him and the church. We wanted her to know it was a choice, a big decision to be baptized...you don't get baptized becasue you turn eight!! Anyway we did lots of FHE nights on the subject, tried to read lots of the Book of Mormon as a family and she even read a lot on her own. I am so so proud of her for taking it seriously and making a very mature choice!
She was all smiles and so was her Daddy!!
It was sweet to see Corey baptize Addy. My cute hubby had a hard time composing himself. I think at first he was trying to traslate in his head the prayer from german to english, but then the moment just got him. I love that he is such a softy!
The night before on our date Corey and I were talking about our memories from our own baptizms. Corey said the one thing that really stood out in his mind was that when he came out of the water he just started to giggle because it was just so neat. Adelyn came out of the water and the first thing she did was let out a cute little giggle!!

Good Times

So I decided to take some pictures of a very typical activity at our house.....Dancing! The girls do this at least a three or four times a week! They get all dressed up in old dance costumes or they put together costumes and do their hair and have a little recital. I love it. It is one of my favorite things to watch them do. It is one of those times I am greatful to have all girls. I have a crazy feeling a little boy wouldn't enjoy this nearly as much as they do!! Adelyn and Maycie dancing their hearts out!!
Lexi doing a "lift" with Makenley...such talent!
Adelyn is a great partner for Maycie, she always remembers Maycie is just 2 you can't expect her to do to much!!
One of my fav parts is when they pause the music and get into "positions" before they start.
Adelyn's Birthday.............more to come!

This is sooooooooo Maycie!! Swimming suit, boots, make-up.....CHEESE!
We made these snowflake tortillas for FHE the girls thought it was really fun!

It is so fun to look at these pictures!! I love doing fun things with the kids! Looking at them is a good remider to me that the world will not end if the dishes are in the sink!! I always enjoy when I stop doing the unimportant and do the important like read books, dance, play games and just be a HAPPY mom!!
