8 Year Old (Baptism) Cake!

Celebrate 8!

4 Generations

On Memorial Day we visited the Lyman Cemetary. My grandparents had so many friends and relatives burried there. It was really amazing and I was so grateful for this little town that has taken such a part in making my family and who we are. So this is 4 generations on my dad's side. (Addison had to do a little celebrating because he wanted anyone that saw this picture to know it was his birthday too!) (My grandfather is burried only a few feet away from where we are standing.)

This is 4 generations on my mom's side. We just did a girl picture although Addison and my grandfather were standing only a few feet away. It was such a beautiful day. I was really glad that we got the chance to escape for a few hours. It's nice to remember who you are and where you came from.

Alivia Graduates!

Whenever I was "featured" in something as a child, my parents used to say, "You were the cutest one out there." I probably rolled my eyes because of course they thought so. Can I say that I totally understand what they meant now? Livie was totally the cutest one at her graduation...and as a mother, I reserve the right to say that!!! She sang all the songs at the top of her lungs and was so excited that she could hardly contain herself. Thanks for coming grandma! It made it even more special! Next year...KINDERGARTEN!

Bye Bye Baby Teeth!

Addion's two front teeth were loose FOREVER! But he would NOT let us touch them. (I kinda sorta tricked him into pulling the last one. Ooops!) But he totally trust Uncle Craig --maybe the fact that he is an orthodontist has something to do with it. Anyway, Craig totally spoiled him. He took him to his office, numbed him up and took care of things. Actually todd pulled the first tooth and Craig the second. I was a little worried about having him loose both his teeth at once. I thought he might look....mm......different? But! I love it! His toothless grin is priceless!!!

Hunting Eggs

Aly is in the process of putting in her yard. She told her landscapers that she needed at least a patch of grass to have an Easter Egg Hunt on. It worked out great and her patch of grass was lovely! :)

Easter Morning!

How nice that we have two families in Arizona to visit!? After we left the Whites in Mesa, we ventured north to Prescott to spend Easter with my sister and her family. Easter at Aly and Craig's was awesome! My kids were spoiled and it was so great just to spend the day relaxing and enjoying family and traditions! Have you ever seen such a cute baby? Brielle!

Oh yeah! Mailee doesn't waste any time!!! Shove those jelly beans in baby! :)

Mmmmm! Doesn't this just make you hungry? It was amazingly delicious! Thanks Aly and Momma!

White Family in Arizona

Mesa AZ Easter Pageant

Since Todd's parents are the Mesa Temple Visitors Center Directors for the next two years, we had quite the family reunion in April for the annual pageant. Its always great for the cousins to get together and I LOVED the pageant. I was thinking the whole time, "I'm so glad that I am a part of this amazing organization." I love the Church! It blesses my life in so many ways and this was just one more!

Easter Duds!
