Orange Belt ~

We are so excited for Peyton. He started Karate about 9 weeks ago and has come so far. He tested for his Orange Belt and passed. Congrats Peyton ... we are so proud of you!!!

1st Annual Slack Easter ~

So I hope this morning becomes an annual tradition. Our extended family met at a beautiful park, the weather was gorgeous ... slightly breezy, not too sunny, not rainy, just wonderful. The kids started by dying hardboiled eggs, followed by an easter egg hunt, BBQ lunch, a pillow sack race and then it was time for Carl and I to leave to get Alanna to Eric's house. My mom was wonderful and kept Peyton so he could continue having fun with his cousins. They played pin the cotton ball on the Easter Bunny's nose and just had a blast. Then a bunch of the cousins went back to grandma's house for some more fun.

It was so nice to just show up and not be in charge of any details. THANK YOU to everyone for making it so much fun and memorable.

Red Rock ~

Today was a lot of fun. I decided that it would be an adventure to pack a lunch and take Peyton and Alanna to Red Rock for a hike. It was wonderful! There was a slight breeze that kept us cool and it was beautiful. Here are a few pics.

Congrats Haleigh Sue ~

I was the lucky one selected to have the honor of doing a baptism photo shoot with Haleigh ... and wow, what fun that was. She is such a beautiful girl and we are so happy she is getting baptized.
