Ben's 31st Birthday

Ben's birthday is two day's before Christmas so it is always hard to have a big party for him at that busy time of year. So we got him his favorite food from Macaroni grill and made him a cake (I made it early in the morning before we both had to work that day!!) The girls decorated the house and had us 3 girls dress in red to match. They are so cute. It looks like the Jazz must have been playing because Benny has on one of his jersey's.


My grandparents got Benny this little shaving kit for Christmas. He thinks he is so big when he shaves like dad. Now we just need to convince him to be big and use the bathroom like dad!



Christmas 2008


We got a train to go around the Christmas tree. Here the kids are setting up the train and playing with it before we even had a Christmas tree.



I took Benny and Baylee to the ward Christmas party. They got to sit on Santa's lap. Benny was not so sure about Santa until he got a present.


We went To my parent's for the annual Christmas eve party. I somehow forgot my camera. I even forgot the clams to go into the clam dip though so this is no big surprise!!

Christmas morning we still could not find my camera. The kids had to sit in our room for almost an hour before Ben found my camera somewhere odd! They got very spoiled as usual!







It worked out that we all went over to Ben's mom's Christmas party later in the afternoon for her annual Christmas lunch. As always, the food was delicious and we had a great time with the family!








Baylee's Baptism

Here are some picture's from Baylee's Baptism and confirmation. It worked out that we were able to Baptize her on Temple beach in Hawaii just like Skyley. Because of the flooding the beaches were closed for 4 days. The morning before we left the beach gad cleared up enough to do it and I tracked down a Bishop to come witness. It was pretty special because the sun was out just long enough for us to have a beautiful baptism. The Sunday after we got home My dad confirmed her during our sacrament the rest of our families could be there.
