Can't believe it's been so long.

Wow! It's been a looong time since I blogged.  It's been a hard time for me.  Right now I'll just post some pictures which are wonderful and not hard.  M and S had their ears pierce last week.  I loved his football season.  He even scored a touchdown while on defense on the line.  H did really well with his Horse, Dragon.  She's the one with the blue blanket.

Reed's Baptism

Grandparents and Great-Grandparents. Sweet

My grandpa has always been special to me. I got to hold his hand and Miriam's hand while this picture was taken. Special moment.

I love that grandma and grandpa were able to come. My mom and dad, Sam and Rob were witnesses. Bishop Naylor conducted the meeting. President Howell joined the confirmation circle with Cesar, Dad, Grandpa, Sam, Rob, Bishop Naylor, and our home teacher Hmo. Millano.

We have a pretty nice step ladder going on here. Reed was baptised April 9th. The Spirit was really palpable. I'm happy for Reed. He is such a good Boy.

The Girls at a Party

Beautiful, Princess Miriam

You're supposed to be relaxed at a "Tea Party". The girls look like they're worried. If you look at the next picture they are both messing with their hats. They didn't want to stay on. Well it was a fun idea to dress up for the Relief Society birthday party. I should have gotten a picture of the shoes. I borrowed a pair of my neighbor's because she has lots of fun ones.

Sara knows how to say, "cheese."

The tilled the ground

Miriam even participated in the work.

Sara and I watched from the deck. The boys threw rocks out of the garden and Mia tried to chase them.

Cesar drove a tractor for the first time today.

Cesar is so excited about his garden this year. He got some good fertilizer from the neighbor's horses, dumped it over the fence and tilled it in. He needed a tractor to prepare his garden.

George Washington in 2nd grade

Reed's second grade patriotic program was really fun. The teachers did a great job getting the students ready.

Miriam turned 5

Nana got her a Beauty and the Beast Collectors Barbies. So lucky to have such a great nana.

The Princesses.

Even the boys had fun playing with the balloons at Miriam's princess party.

Miriam is a big 5 year old. I can't believe it.
