Flash Back Time: My Birthday!

Hello, this is now Calvin typing!(That's what it meant by 'My'). It is presently December 31, 2016.  Nobody has been on here for a year and a half, so I took over. This is my blog now... And by that I mean, welcome to a world of spelling errors, grammar issues, and stories centering on me. Just kidding!(You guys are so gullible!) I'm just here to fill you guys all in on everything that's happened between now and last summer, so we should have a lot of fun.
Okay, so the last post was on July 13, and the next day is the 14th(obviously)but does anyone know what that means? Anyone? IT IS MY BIRTHDAY! I decided that we would go eat at Los Hermanos, and then we would go to Toys R Us to get Legos. Afterwards we went to Lowes Extreme Air Sports and jumped 'til lunch started to come back for revenge. It was a ton of fun. Breanna, Marshal, and Adrie came with, and we did all sorts of crazy stuff. They recently had built a HUGE American Ninja Warrior course, and(because it was Ninja related) it was awesome. They even included the warped wall! I was doing pretty good, but as I swung on the rope swing toward the rope ladder, I got stuck. Like, I shoved my foot into the rope ladder and was hanging upside-down. I eventually got my foot out, and with minor blisters, walked out alive. Afterwards, Marshal showed us his awesome biking skills in the parking lot.
P.S. Don't judge my spelling. If you are reading this and your name was wrong, please forgive me. Thanks!

Natural History Museum of Utah

BreAnna and I took the kids to the Natural History Museum of Utah today.

Just riding around

I made myself cry

I was making Calvin's birthday card and I started to write a poem and then I started crying. Oh man, I think I'm in trouble as these kids get older if I'm getting so emotional writing my 10 year old a birthday card.

Lily's Baptism July 4, 2015

Lily was baptized on the 4th of July. She was excited to have fireworks on her baptism day. The night before her baptism she was not feeling well so we took her to insta care at 9pm and she had strep throat. We ran and got an antibiotic but they usually don't kick in for 24 hours and her baptism was in the morning. Jon gave her a blessing that she would feel good on her baptism day and that she wouldn't get anyone sick. She woke up the next morning feeling great. It was a beautiful day. Her baptism was wonderful. The program is pictured below. Lily chose who did everything for her program. Calvin played a piano piece that he composed just by hearing the song on Pandora. Lily had to be baptized twice because she was so comfortable with Jon dunking her that she let her toe pop up out of the water. Jon also confirmed her and gave her a beautiful blessing. The part that stood out to me was that she would develop her spiritual gifts. She looked absolutely beautiful in her baptism dress. The baptism pictures that I took of her a few weeks ago are also pictured. The rest of the day we had so much fun with family at our house playing games, singing happy birthday to Lily, walking to the park and lighting fireworks in the Cul de sac. It was a wonderful day. We love our beautiful Lily bug and we are so proud of her decision to be baptized.  

Sunglasses

Lana loves sunglasses. It is so cute to watch her play with them and see the smile it brings to her face.
