Moab

We went to Moab over Presidents Day weekend; which is always fun, but a little more enjoyable when its above 40 degrees! Scott spend Saturday biking with friends while the girls and I prepared for Valentines Day. We hiked to Delicate Arch on Valentines Day which was pretty cool. Both girls hiked the entire 3 miles although the last 15 minutes back were punctuated with "I really need to go potty!" Fortunately we all made it to the bathroom in time.

Presidents day was also Aspens 3rd birthday. She'd been dying to have her birthday party all weekend. She picked out a Little Mermaid cake and got The Little Mermaid movie, a Barbie from Mercedes and some Tinkerbell Fairy dolls. My days would be grey without her!

Eight is Great!

Mercedes had her 8th birthday and her baptism on the same day. She was baptized 10 minutes after she officially turned 8. Am I that old?! It was such a wonderful day; reflecting on my little girl and her 8 years of life. I look back at pictures of when she was a baby, so sweet and innocent and the hardships she had to go through when she was so young. I hope we haven't wrecked her too much.

Birthday Cake!

Her favorite birthday gift was this outfit from her uncle JT, pettiskirt and all. She was so excited to wear it to school the next day that she woke up at 2:30 am, took a shower, got dressed, played with her new toys and waited until everyone else woke up. She was one tired girl after school!

After the bapstism.

Cute girls!

We love our Magoo!!
