HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Our Sweet little Witchy!

This year Tyler had so much fun trick or treating! He would go up to the door get his candy, and then ask for "two" or "more". At one door he was told he could only have one and he started to cry and wouldn't stop. I think the lady felt bad and asked if she could give him another one, but Mike told her no that he needed to learn the realities of life.

Watch out for our fierce little dionosaur! Tate did not like the cold grass and solved the problem by putting his fingers in his mouth. Beware of his ROAR!


This year we went to the Thompsons for dinner, trick or treating and lots of fun with friends. We had a SPOOKTACULAR night.

Jaden is in the NO PICTURES MOM zone! I respect this unless I really want a picture and then I give him OPTIONS.... You can take a picture or you wont get to..... It usually works to my advantage.

Baptism Day

October 11, 2009

Jaden's Baptism Day was one of the most Beautiful and Peaceful Days in our Family! It is a memory I never want to forget.

We were not sure exactly how Jaden felt about being Baptized, except that he said he wanted to. We did know that he has been scared that his friends will laugh at him for this choice, so he has been more reserved in talking about his feelings. I prayed that he would be able to put those fears aside and be able to enjoy his day. I saw the power of the Lord at work this day. This was fullfilled. Two of his friends from school were also able to attend.

As I looked over at Jaden I saw him snuggled up next to Mike looking so happy. After his Baptism, where he was immersed in the water, I watched him again and he could not stop Smiling! He would look at me with joy in his eyes. He looked perfect and he was perfect. He knew he had followed the Savior. It was a beautiful moment for me as a mother.

After Jaden received his Confirmation blessing into the Church and received the Holy Ghost I could see a change in his countenance. The Spirit of God was so strong in the room. I know that God was proud of him and his decision to follow the Savior Jesus Christ by getting Bapized.

Jaden kept hugging and kissing Mike and I, his siblings and Grandparents all day. It was so fun.

Jaden Congratulations

on your choice to be

Baptized and follow Jesus Christ!

We are proud of you!

We love you so much!

You are a wonderful little Boy!
