Happiness

  Rosie was so excited to celebrate her birthday at school and bring treats. They did a fun song about traveling around the world each year and she showed pictures of when she was a baby. One boy next to me said "she is so cute!" and pretended to faint. haha! At In n Out- we love to go there for birthdays- it's close and mostly dairy free! They made her a super cute birthday hat and several people wished her a happy birthday. She soaked up the love! Rosie requested heart waffles with whip cream and sprinkles. This is before the extra toppings! The beautiful sunrise on her special day. ❤ She also requested mermaid cupcakes for her friend party at the park. So fun! A bit windy but a great turnout and they all had fun! Pinata time! Rosie was adamant about this one! Presents at home that evening- it was a busy day! Yay, crafts!!   Happy Birthday, Rosie girl! We love you! We love how you like to play chase games with your friends at recess. You love to tickle on the bed with D...

  Asher has been in Youngstown, Ohio for three transfers now. It's kind of a ghetto area but he loves working with all different kinds of people and he's had great companions as well. Elder Soares came to his mission and that was a really great experience for Asher. Time is flying by and soon we'll get to have him home! He's doing a great work until then.

  Declan's celebration dinner after he completed at the District Spelling Bee. Declan and the other girl- a 7th grader- competing at district. He did a great job and we are super proud of him!

Rosie started full day kindergarten this semester. She has loved it but gets a bit tired at the end of the day. I am working on my subbing applications and have one in already. Excited to go back to subbing after five years!  Declan won his school spelling bee and is on to the district one tomorrow! He also graduated from primary class at Church and is now in Young Men’s! How awesome is that! Life keeps marching on and on. It’s amazing to watch! 

We had a great Christmas! The boys were in town and it was great to have everyone there. We missed Asher! Merry Christmas!
