Little Treasures






Here are a few of the little treasures I see every day! Adele is so stinkin' cute, I can't stand it sometimes!

Mother's Day









Well, I'm a little late posting this. I hope all you mom's out there had a great day. Mine was really good. It actually started Saturday afternoon. Dustin ordered me a fruit arrangement from Edible Arrangements. It was yummy. We immediately started to eat it. Only later did I think to take pictures of it. It had strawberries, pineapple (some dipped in chocolate), and grapes. All of my favorites! Thanks Dustin! You know me well! Then Tate couldn't keep his presents a secret any more, so he gave me his on Saturday too. They were so cute and he worked really hard on them at school. I can't believe he was able to wait from Thursday to Saturday. Way to go bud! Then on Sunday I got my bouquet of paper flowers from Macy. They were so cute. I haven't seen anything like them before. As for Norah and Adele. They gave me some great pictures! I love my family! They were so great! Thanks for all the wonderful presents!

Adele's Blessing








We blessed Adele yesterday. It was a beautiful blessing. She looked beautiful. Thanks to her Mimi and Pop Pop for sending us the dress and blanket. Dustin was able to bless her and we had some of our friends from the ward stand in with him. Some of the things she was blessed with were the ability to discern right from wrong, to have a clear mind and an open heart, and to make righteous choices so that one day she can marry her companion in the temple. What a wonderful day! Isn't she adorable??

Macy's Tortoise




So a couple of weeks ago Macy painted an endangered species of tortoise for her art class. It was for a "green theme" project. She can't remember the exact name of the species. Well, her art teacher picked her painting as one that would be on display at the High School for an arts night. They had all kinds of art, music there from all different ages of kids. We searched and searched for her painting and just about when we were going to give up, we found it. Pretty good, huh? Way to go Macy!
