It's Crazy How Fast Time Flies

It has been FOREVER since I posted. I have so many posts that have been started but not finished. I have so many events to cover in the lives of our family. I think that it will take me forever to get caught up. I will endeavor to get "caught up" as soon as possible. We are having trouble downloading our pictures from the camera. Hopefully we will be able to get that figured out soon.

School is out and now the fun begins. We are going to have to find lots of ways to entertain ourselves over the next few months. We are going to be starting our adventures next week by travelling to Utah for the baptism of one of our cousins, Ashlyn Rose Strong. Ashlyn turned 8 at the beginning of May. Ashlyn and Rachel are about one month apart in age. We are so glad to have so many cousins!! We love each and every one of them.

Rachel will be turning 8 years old (sniff, sniff) on Sunday, May 31st. It's hard to believe that my little girl will be old enough to be baptized. She has been looking forward to getting baptized ever since Katelyn was baptized about 18 months ago. Eight became her favorite number. She has been counting down the months, days, etc. until her birthday. Rachel's baptism is going to be on June 20th. We are going to be combining with another boy in our ward. We wanted to wait until then so that we could allow more of our family members to be able to be here for the baptism. We are grateful for the sacrifices that our family make for us.

Keep watching for more posts in the coming weeks!!

Check out this super cool video and song. If you love Taylor Swift's song "Love Story" you will love this arrangement by two Utah music artists. It is totally awesome!!
