"The Gown"

The Baptismal gown has been worn by all 4 of our girls in addition to their two other girl cousins, Hannah and Sophie! Very special indeed!


Amelia Grace Gabriel - Baptized December 18, 2011

The date was set and our special friends answered the call. Shelly and Chris made the trip out for Amelia's baptism, and the weekend was perfect. Shelly traveled from Arizona and Chris from Colorado to become Amelia's Godparents this past weekend. She is such a lucky little girl!!! We are feeling very blessed on this special occasion for our youngest little girl. She was a perfect angel!

It's Disneyland days baby! Woo Hoo!


There's really not as happy of a place as Disneyland! It's just something about being there that brings a smile to people's faces - even with humongous crowds, long lines, tired feet, rain - nothing can dampen the good times had at Disney.
And we had it all - turns out that the week of Thanksgiving is one of the busiest weeks of the year at the Magical land of Mickey Mouse! No worries - we still got to see pretty much everything and the kids had a great time. We got rain on the first day, but the lines were down. Sun on the second day and the lines were LONG! Unfortunately, we didn't even catch one glimpse of Mickey, but that only means that we have to come back!! DARN! :)

Sydney turns 9

Sydney's birthday always comes around a busy time, but she manages every year to have a great time at her party! This year was no exception with new friends to help her celebrate her special day. To top it off, she got to spend her actual special day at DISNEYLAND! Her home party entailed some dancing, singing, acting, and lots of giggles. It was fun to be able to meet some of the girls outside of the school setting and to be able to help those friendships grow!
