Maddy's Baptism

I just keep having these mental flashes of Maddy on her
wedding day....oh please not yet or ever!

Thanks so much for a wonderful husband/father who
honors his priesthood
and was worthy to baptize his daughter.


We sure love you Auntie Sharon!

Thanks for all the support, we sure love you all.

My oldest baby is baptized! Man I am feeling older!
Olivia Campbell was baptized the same day as Maddy...so much fun!
What a special day and wonderful choice she made. Chris and I are so proud of her.
I could see the joy and lively spirit in her face after the baptism. She is now blessed to have the companionship of the holy ghost. I only hope we have prepared her enough.
We will continue to teach and guide her and watch her use her free agency.
I am grateful to be her mother and I love her very much.

Happy 8th Birthday Maddy

I cannot believe she is already 8 years old! I feel like I just blinked and she went from baby to a big girl...my heart is happy for her and sad at the same time. I am happy because she is wanting to grow up and sad because I don't want to let her. Oh the joy of being a mother, we cannot have it all, unfortunately. I can honestly say I love watching her grow and have loved every stage she has gone through for different reasons. I hope (in only 4 years) when she is a teenager I can say the same thing.


Party At This Is The Place Park







My only wish is for her to not get any bigger....I don't know if I would really like that though!
