Beautiful Brooklyn

I just wanted to share some cute pictures that Heather (our sister-in-law) took of Brooklyn recently. We are so blessed to have such a beautiful girl and an amazing photographer in the family. Thanks again, Heather!! (You can see another picture of Brooklyn with her cousin Allie on Heather's website here.)


Our family has had a busy week and weekend trying to finish up yard projects. Kyle is back in school starting this week and we've spent every moment possible trying to get our garden in, build a dry well, and do some landscaping in our yard. Kyle single-handedly hauled 8 tons of topsoil plus the several tons of fill dirt and compost he moved around the yard. We are almost done and will share pictures when we finish.

This weekend we were fortunate to be able to see Lonni (fiance of Kyle's older brother John) go through the Bountiful temple. It was so nice to be there and to go to the temple. It was the first time we were able to go since before Brooklyn was born. John and Lonni will be married in the Salt Lake Temple on Saturday.

We also had Heather, Brian, Jackson, and Allie stay with us for two nights while they were waiting to be able to move into their new home in Spanish Fork. We had a great time. Ethan was heartbroken this morning when they left that he couldn't play with Brian and Jackson today and keeps telling me he wants to go to their house tomorrow. Fortunately, we will see them again in less than two weeks for my cousin Melissa's wedding.

The pictures are beautiful! She is so darling. And I can't believe how fast she is growing.

That grin is priceless! I also love the second one, with the tutu--what a sweet little girl!

She's such a doll- thanks for letting me play! And thanks once again for letting us stay with you! Jackson keeps asking when we can go back. :)
