Pool Play!

Our first day in the pool with some favorite pool play!

Handstands are always a favorite!

Hannah splashed Dad first...dad showed her who is boss!

Aliza with her mask getting ready to go under!

Fun times!

Sisters!

All of us Moms just adore it when the kids play and have fun together! It's great to get out and have fun...even better to hear all the giggles and laughter.

Chelsie and Kelly getting ready to play chicken fight!

The sisters had fun playing chicken fight.

I don't think either team went down. It was a good match!

Our first trip to the pool this summer. It was so nice to sit out in the late afternoon with a cool breeze and watch the girls have fun!

Thanks April!

Surrounded with Love!

Sarah and her Dad...look at that beautiful smile!

Sarah and her friends Lauren and Jordan! What a wonderful set of friends that would come to Sarah's baptism. It was important to her so they came! Great Friends!

We are happy to have Sarah in our lives! She is a choice spirit!

Sarah and Marsha...another Mother who loves her too!

We are so thankful to all our friends who came out to support Sarah on her special day. We are grateful to the Castaic Ward Family for showing Sarah all the LOVE!

Sarah's Baptism

Elder Woods, Sarah and Elder Thing

Both these Elders go home this summer. Thank you so much for your service Elders!

Jordon and Sarah

They were both so nervous. Jordon was afraid he would mess up the baptism prayer. We had to joke with him that he had to be baptized twice, because Leonard didn't say it right. In the end he was a champ and said it right and didn't have to have a re-do.

Sarah's baptism journey has been such a blessing to our family. Having the gospel taught in home by the missionaries is such a humbling experience. What a tremendous opportunity for Jordon to be on the other side of missionary work the year before he leaves on his own mission. It is an amazing experience to watch someone take their first steps in the gospel. Sarah's mom passed away a year ago. Now they are both having the opportunity to learn the gospel. They are on the same journey...just in different realms. Sarah will have an incredible guardian angel watching over her.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!!

Dance Studio 84's big dance recital was last weekend! Aliza's is in Jazz and Tap. This is the first year we had two dances in the same recital. The girls have learned so much in the last year. Their teacher, Ms. Carla, is tough! She expects alot from the girls. But, when you see their routines, it is amazing!

This was the costume for their dance "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"

It was a jazz routine. Aliza and Taylor were partnered together. They were awesome!

Their next dance was tap to the song "Creepshow"

They all got to make some fun, scary faces!

Aliza and Taylor have been dancing for 5 years together. They each received their five year awards this year. If they keep it up, they will do their 10 year solos when they are only 13!

Cuties!
