Jaxon played in his first piano recital tonight. He was so nervous in the car...he HATES being the center of attention. We were sooo proud of him! He did so great! He played a duet with his teacher and played his first solo. He is quite the little piano man!
We saw a Krispy Kreme the other day so we of course had to stop. They are few and far between in these parts. I think it is so cute that my kids chant "doughnuts! Doughnuts!" when they see a doughnut shop.
Jaxon started baseball a couple of weeks ago...he looks so cute!!! I mean...tough. Yes- he looks so tough.
Jaxon won the Principal's Learning Award for Social Studies today!!! I am one proud mama!!
While we were in San Jose (see post below), we were able to hang out with the whole family!! (We missed you Stacey and Jamey!!) We took a tour of Stanford, went to a farm, ate, and ate, and ate!! We had a great time! Thanks for taking such good care of us Sarah and Craig!!

Last weekend we went to San Jose, CA for my niece's baptism. How is Olivia 8 years old?? Olivia is the most wonderful little girl. These are a few things I love about her:
-She is wicked smart.
-She is really funny.(Just like her mama)
-She loves clothes.
-She is a wonderful artist.
-She is a great helper with Ella.
-She is messy.
-She loves to bake and cook.
-She loves to dance.
-She is a drama queen.
-She is a great friend. (Just like her mama)
-She is an amazing sister. (Just like her mama)
I could go on and on, but I just love her. I am so glad we live close enough that we are able to see her as much as we do. We wouldn't have missed her big day for anything. We are super proud of her!!
Happy Birthday Ella!!! I cannot believe Ella is two!! Yesterday we were laying in my bed watching Tangled and I realized that it was the last day she would ever be one. It made me cry. I get so overwhelmed when I think about how much I love Ella.
She is smart. She is spunky. She is sassy. She is silly. She is messy. She is curious. She is busy. She is adorable. She is beautiful. She is loving. She loves her brother. She is perfect...in every way.
Everyday I thank my Heavenly Father for my sweet baby girl. She is the light of our lives...and the complete joy of our hearts.
Happy Birthday Ella!
