My Pioneer Children

From Collages

I loooooove Pioneer Day, probably due to my summer spent in Nauvoo 15 years ago.
Now that I have 3 kids of my own, I love singing the pioneer songs, the costumes, the stories, and the celebration!

All this and I'm not even from Utah!

Baptism Day

Miss Tressa was baptized today! We had a wonderful day filled with dear family and sweet friends. Tressa was all smiles as she cuddled with her dad. Jared has been listening to "Sunrise, Sunset" from Fiddler on the Roof today :) -- both of us mourning a bit as we see our little one grow. What is not to adore about this blondie? She's such a help, still likes me, wants to do what is right, loves to read, is a little athlete, reminds us to do what is right, cuddles with her dad, is best friends with her brother Brian.

I must say on days like this it is a comfort to have family surrounding me and friends near. I am reminded of the love that fills my life and I can be nothing but grateful. Beautiful, beautiful day.
