Picture Tag!

So I have no idea why my font is blue or underlined, but I have spent 20 min trying to undo it, and it is just gonna have to STAY! So, this is a picture tag-tag to you all! I love tags because I am not creative enough to come up with blogging ideas on my own. Go to your pictures, pick the 6th picture out of the 6th folder, post it and give a description.
This is Jay and I on our honeymoon in the Redwood Forest. One of the coolest places I have ever been! We are at the top of a tram at the top of the forest, and if you look closely, you can see the ocean above the mountains. My honeymoon was the best!!! Jay spoiled me rotten and we had an absolute blast! I want to go again!!!

Brigham's Baptism

So I am slowly catching up on our lives the past two months. Brigham was baptized, on his birthday, and the day turned out to be perfect!!! We were a little worried about if it was going to happen or not, but he REALLY wanted to be baptized on his birthday, so with the help of a super aunt, the day went off without a hitch! He is such a sweet spirit and I am so proud of him and the person he is becoming! I made this cake- not nearly as fancy OR delicious as Traci's, but those ARE football candles. I was pretty proud of that!
We had a lunch after and everyone came over for it. It was so fun to get together! (Jay looks disgusted in this picture for some reason. :) That is my brother Nathan, his daughter Bethany and my mom in the background

Brigham decided he wanted to have Jay baptize him. They really have a good relationship and I am so grateful to Jay for being so wonderful to my kids! I could not ask for a better husband!
My brothers sang "I'm Trying to Be Like Jesus", and Nicole gave a really great talk! It was a great day we will always remember!

Update, finally!!!

Wow, so I have not worked all month, and I told myself that I would blog at LEAST once a week, and here it is a month and a half later....Needless to say, we have had lots of things happen since then....
First of all, my baby turned 8 years old on Feb 28th! We had a fun friend birthday party, took him to Olive Garden for dinner, and he got baptized! Traci made the cake and it was DELICIOUS and Brigham thought he was the luckiest kid in the world to have a real football cake! The kid is obsessed with football! We had a football themed party, and I think he got 5 footballs from friends. I must say though, of all the tasks as a mother, I HATE putting on friend birthday parties! I always stress and stress about it and I am always worried we are going to run out of things to do until their parents come. But, this one was really fun and they had a great time.
