Brayli Gets Baptized!!

With Brayli turning eight she was able to get baptized. She was so excited and didn't she look beautiful! She was so excited and has such a love for the gospel. I'm so lucky to be her mom! I love this girl!


These were all the kids that got baptized this day

Waking up Brayli first thing on her birthday after her sleeping in her brother's room

We took Brayli to the mall at night and ate dinner and surprised her with going to build a bear



Ending her night with her new bear and her gorgeous cake made especially for her by Pat's cake decorator. She loved it

It's Christmas Time!!

Tyler is shocked!
And Trent also!
Super happy Brayli

Hope everyone had a great Christmas!



My Latest Project... The Girl's Room

Anyone who knows me knows that I love to decorate and ever since Sept 08, I get an itch every 6 months or so to do another project in our house. In the spring it was my room, and this time it was the girl's room. It seriously needed a makeover as the daycare had taken to the walls with paint and pen and overload of toys. I felt like the girls needed their own room that was just for them and no one else. It turned out just like I and they wanted it! But Pat has now cut me off from spending, so goodbye projects... I will miss you!

Here's what the room looked like before, minus the buckets of toys for the daycare

And finally the finished project

Saying Goodbye to a Member of the Family...Little Fudgy

This month we decided fudgy would be better off with another family as now the kids are in school and she wasn't getting any attention. We have had her for 2 1/2 years and she survived her sister dying from a disease which was quite tramatic for all of us. Thank goodness for craig's list as it was very painlessly done while the kids were at school and yeah for me now that the boys' room doesn't smell! I think she will be our last rodent forever even though I will miss how cute she was!

Trent Turns Twelve--What?!

I can't believe we have another teenager in the house! Technically he has another year to go but in our experience, this year tends to be a bit more dramatic than the 13th so really there's no difference. This was a huge year for Trent. Not only does he get the priesthood and gets to pass the sacrament on Sundays, but he gets to say goodbye to primary forever and finally gets to meet with the youth. Poor Trent has been the only 11year old in primary for months and yes was the only one in the program. He was SUPER thrilled about it but was a great sport as Tyler and Pat tried to make him laugh the whole time. Poor guy. If you were to ask Trent is this was his best bday ever he would say yes not only to the above things mentioned but because he finally got his own cell phone. I fought this forever with him as his friends' parents are much more generous, and poor Trent has parents who arent,but we needed to get into a family plan and so it just made sense. I didn't get a picture of him getting it as we were very mean and tricked him later with it, but these are the other things he got.


The day Trent was ordained to the priesthood we had all the Bagley's over for a celebration/bday party for him.
