We love Missionaries

My kids absolutely adore missionaries. If they see them they think it is party time. Hopefully when my kids get older they will remember all the fun they would have with these wonderful boys. Good work Elders!!

Lauren's Baptism

We just had an Amazing weekend. Lauren turned 8 on April 11th. She was supposed to be baptized on May 1st but we didn't know if our new church building was going to be ready to we waited a month so we could plan on having family be able to come into town. My parents and sister Natalie and her baby Alivia arrived Friday. The baptism was Saturday morning at 10a.m. It was really so amazing. The talks were wonderful. My Mom and Natalie sang "What Heaven sees in you" with the music being recorded by my sweet cousin Adam Eskelson(thank you so much Ad.) The testimonies were so sweet. The whole day was perfect. Everyone was crying. Then afterwards we had root beer floats and cake and fruit. Sounds random, but it was So Dang Yummy. She was also confirmed that day. On Sunday the Bishop spoke about how much he enjoyed the baptism and how strong the spirit was there. I was one proud Mom. I am still on a high from it. The family left today to head home. It was so fun to have visitors for such a special occasion.

These are pictures that my dear friend Jon Henderson took of my kids. These are a few of the better ones.
