Another cold day at the beach.......this time

Briar went with her X-Country friends.

(Even though she is not running cross country this year.)

Alyssa B. has been staying with us for a couple of weeks.

Her family already moved to Utah, but she stayed behind

so that she and Briar could have a few more photo-ops together.

(Well, that's ONE of the reasons why she stayed.)

Happy 4th of July!!!

Amelia tried to make a get-away in someone else's parade float.

How do you explain to a 1 year old that every toy in the world

does not belong to her?

(These pictures were actually taken on the 3rd at the Ward Pancake Breakfast. When the 4th falls on a Sunday,

the 3rd naturally becomes the new 4th!)

Baptism Day for Chloe & her friend Emily Leon!

Chloe & Dru just before the baptism.

Good thing Grandma Jojo brought her camera.....

guess who forgot hers????

"I like to look for rainbows....whenever there is rain.

And ponder on the beauty of an earth made clean again.

I want my life to be as clean as earth right after rain.

I want to be the best I can....and live with God again."

Those are the words to the Primary song about Baptism that
Chloe and Emily sang (beautifully!)

Hence.....the RAINBOW cake.

(Thanks for the idea Cari!)
