It's Great to be 8!


Hailey's birthday festivities started out with a late night birthday party. The girls had pedicures and decorated flip flops. I must say that this is one of my very favorite ages so far. Everything is so incredibly exciting and new and the whole no booster thing is fabulous!



Cute cousins in matching pj's!

Hailey got her first set of "nice" scriptures with her name on them.

On March 6 Hailey was baptized. When I say that Hailey has been counting down for years for this day, I am totally serious. She has waited and waited for this day. It was such a neat experience and I know that she made the right choice!

After the baptism and confirmation, we had a luncheon with our family and a few close friends.

This is a picture of the most delicious cake ever! (No, I didn't make this one.)

And on a side note, who says monsters don't sleep under your bed?

I haven't been much of a blogger lately and I feel like I've missed so much! Your kids are so darn cute and getting so big! Congratulation to Hailey! And I love the pictures of Easton sleeping everywhere. So cute! Isn't it fun having a two year old!?

I'm glad that Hailey had such a great day! We have ours to look forward to very soon.

love that first picture!! I can't believe how old she is getting. My first memory of her is at your Grandma Ashby's on Christmas with those mini carebear dolls she got and something about getting the poop cramps.

That looks like a whole lot of girly fun. She is adorable.

She looks so pretty in her dress! It's so strange to think of having a child old enough to be baptized!

I can't believe Easton is sleeping in that position... and under the bed no less :). He was awesome at singing Follow the Prophet in nursery the other week- loved it!
