Oh, how they grow!





Caden was baptized this past Saturday! He was so cute! When he came up out of the water... he basically kept right on going out of the font! He never really likes to be the center of attention.:)

When he was getting ready for his interview with the Bishop, he was so nervous because Greg had told him that if he didn't answer every question correctly, he would have to go back to sunbeams!!

It was a beautiful day in every way. My family was there and I remembered my camera! I just sat there and wondered where the time had gone - mom and dad were right, it goes by while we are paying attention to things that take too much time and energy from the things and people that really matter.

I really want to take time this summer to live in the moment and enjoy my family. We've had such a hard year and I have gotten way to caught up in the thick of thin things. I realise that my time with these precious children is way to short... so I need to make the memories that tie us together now! (If you want to see someone who knows how to do this perfectly... check out Heather's blog, under my friends and family!)

Anyway... I just feel really blessed to have the fabulous family that I do! As the saying goes... "we may not have it all together... but together we have it all!"

Way to go, Caden! You have great parents;) And grandparents & great grandparents!

Sheri, You're awesome! Time slips by faster than we imagine, doesn't it? I think as long as we realize it, that's a step in the right direction. Thanks for your love and support.

WOW! You just made me homesick. You and your hubby, your parents, Uncle Glen and Aunt Geri all look fabulous. I miss seeing all of the extended family.
Looks like a beautiful day. Congrats Caden!
