My Baptism...

Saturday was a very special day for me. I was baptized! The spirit was very strong. I had tears in my eyes as my mom gave her talk. It was a special experience. My dad baptized me and I was so happy to be with him. He is the best dad in the world. I would do it all over again if I could. Guess I will just have to wait to be baptized for the dead. Thank you family and friends for coming and sharing this special day with me. And thank you for all the fun gifts.

Happy New Years...

This year we started out with a bang. We went out to dinner, saw "Bed Time Stories Movie" (realy cute and Avree watched the entire movie without a peep), came home to light fireworks, watched the ball drop on t.v., and ended the nights with sparkling cider and some kisses. We had a wonderful time. Hope you all had a wonderful New Years!

Christmas Day...

The girls where so excited Christmas morning. Our tradition is Daddy wakes up first to go start the fire, dim the lights, set up the camera, and turn on Christmas music. Then I get up fix myself some and we go wake the girls up at 6:00. We open our gifts then head to Jamie's parents for another gift unravel and breakfast by 9 or 10 o'clock. This year we only had one place to go instead of 3. It was relaxing and enjoyable without having to rush. Thank you Jamie for another wonerful happy Christmas.

The love of our Savior...

“And an angel … said unto me: Nephi, what beholdest thou?

“And I said unto him: A virgin, most beautiful and fair above all other virgins.

“And he said unto me: Knowest thou the condescension of God?

“And I said unto him: I know that he loveth his children. …

“And he said unto me: Behold, the virgin whom thou seest is the mother of the Son of God, after the manner of the flesh.

“And it came to pass that I beheld that she was carried away in the Spirit; and after she had been carried away in the Spirit for the space of a time the angel spake unto me, saying: Look!

“And I looked and beheld the virgin again, bearing a child in her arms.

“And the angel said unto me: Behold the Lamb of God, yea, even the Son of the Eternal Father!” (1 Ne. 11:14–21.)

I am so thankful for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His atonement. What a blessing he has been in our lives as we continue to try and follow his examples. I love Him with all my heart and am so thankful for my, Jamie and the girls testimonies. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

He came down to earth from heaven,
Who is God and Lord of all,
And his shelter was a stable
And his cradle was a stall.
(Hymns, no. 205)
