Just a couple of things...

While reading a friends blog post about her daughter getting baptized, I remembered that I never posted about Emilys Baptism! Then I remembered that I never posted one about Candices wedding....

Candice got married on April 11th- Emilys birthday!! It was so awesome to get to be there to see the wedding. She and Quinn got married in the St. George temple. They had an open house the night before the wedding in my parents backyard... serving nothing else but cheesecake and hot dogs! It was so fun and casual... They had music playing the whole time and a fire in the fire pit. It was such a happy day! While they were at our house for the baptism , Candice found out that shes pregnant!!! It was soooooo great!!!!

Emily got baptized in May. We had so many family travel so far to be able to be here for it. It helped to show Emily how special and important it is to be baptized. We were so grateful for everyone that came up. It was a little surreal to see our oldest child be baptized. It was wonderful. I can't say enough how grateful I am to have a worthy priesthood holder as the patriarch of our family.

Thank you to everyone who sacrificed to come up here. I know this is a little belated but we are really really grateful!!! We love you all!

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
