Christopher was so excited that his Dad baptized him ON his 8th birthday

Our whole family
Christopher was excited for his friend Jordan (who does not attend our church) to come to his baptism. We only do friend birthday parties every other year, and this was an off year, but we wanted to make it special so we invited Jordan and his family to the baptism and to our house for pizza, cake & ice cream after.
All the family that attended minus Rob's brother Daniel & his wife & baby-they arrived after the picture. I LOVE that my grandparents are on a mission in Utah so they get to come to all the important family events. It was really fun to have my family there, visiting from Oregon. Christopher asked my dad & sister, Calais (who is coming out to BYU next year!!) to give talks & they both did an amazing job. Christopher asked my mom and brother, Taylor to give prayers & those were pretty good too ;)

This is sort of Eastery. Michael and I made carrots in the shape of rectangles, triangles, circles, squares, etc and fed them to our velveteen rabbit to practice shapes. Another great idea from littlefamilyfun.com :)

Wasn't Christopher just barely three and doing preschool? Crazy how fast the time has flown and how grown up these kids are getting. Your outdoor Easter egg hunt looks like it was a lot of fun. :)
I can't believe he's 8!! I remember when you were pregnant with him :) Congrats on all the fun.
Wow, time flies! Christopher was always so fun to sit behind in church when he was what, one?
