school pictures


September 22nd, 2010

With 4 kids in elementary school this year, I just couldn’t stomach spending $80 on crappy school pictures. So, on picture day, I had the kids get ready in the morning like they would for pictures, but…I took them myself! We just used a plain white wall as the background in the morning, but I wasn’t very happy with those, so I took each of them outside when they got home from school. MUCH better. And since I was already taking pics, I even took some of Tyghe for the grandparents.

A couple of weeks ago, Miss Kezia turned 8. She had the traditional sleepover with many of her best friends and had a lot of fun.

The weekend after her party, my parents came to town and she was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She loved having her grandparents here for the special occasion.

Such a lucky girl to be able to have her daddy baptize her.

The 4 oldest kids even sang “I Love to See The Temple”, and made it so I couldn’t keep the tears back. I’m so thankful for my beautiful children and proud of Kezia for choosing to be baptized.
