First of all, Will turned 8! We spent the evening at Fat Cats with grandparents and aunts and uncles. Will had a great time and loved his Indiana Jones lego set and this cool Indy cake. (That is a boulder behind Indy. You push a button on the back of that little mountain and the boulder rolls down behind him. Very cool.)
Before we moved into our house the kids started school so we spent a week driving the kids every morning 45 miles to school. Fun! So here is Will's first day of 3rd and Janie's first day of Kinder.
Two weeks after we moved into our house Will got baptized! It was a wonderful day. We had family come in town that weekend to spend that day with us. Will looked so handsome dressed in white and had the sweetest spirit about him the whole day. I will never forget it.
Then little Janie turned 6! We had a family party and decided to do a friend party also. We invited her friends from Primary and her Kindergarten class to come and make a movie. It was really fun--but a little crazy. I think we had 18 little kids over at our house. Rick and I are pretty tough, but that is the last time we do that many kids. Next year we'll invite her 5 best friends!

Oh for fun...what cuteness all over the place. And that mantel is great, Marty. Congrats to all the big celebrations. 18 kids...whoa. I support next year's plan!
Marty,
What a wonderful experience to having Will baptized! Jane looks so excited to be starting school. I can't believe you commuted your kids to school, I bet your glad that is over!
Happy Birthday Jane! Six! Wow! I hope you are settling into your new home! How is Katie?
Katie is doing great. I realized after posting that I didn't say anything about her. We took her to her new cardiologist last month and everything looked good. They told me to come back in 6 months! I haven't ever gone that long before so I am a little nervous, but it is a good sign! Thanks for asking.
I can't believe that Will is 8! That just doesn't seem possible. It is amazing how time flies.
Congratulatons on the baptism, the new house, and surviving an at home kid party!
Congrats to Will on the birthday and baptism. We think of him every year since he and Kayla have the same birthday. I asked Kayla this year on her birthday if she remembers Will- she didn't anymore. It is so good to hear about your cute little family. The kids are getting so big, especially Katie. The little ones seem to grow the fastest. Hope you're settling in and enjoying your new life (dude-get some blinds- J/K). We miss you guys.
Audrey
