It's Gingerbread Time
Today the boys and I decided it was time to make our gingerbread house. The boys put on all of the candy and I am amazed at how well they did! Good thing I got a picture of it when I did because in less than 30 minutes after we made this, Hunter was eating the candy off of it.
Hunter's Birthday Party
Hunter wanted to do Laser Tag and Arcades this year for his birthday party. Everybody seemed to have great time, even Spencer who I told couldn't take out all the kids in Laser Tag this year!
Hunter's Baptism
I have to say that Hunter's Baptism was one of the highlights of my life. I am so grateful that he had a desire to be baptised and that he really wanted to have the gift of the Holy Ghost. It was interesting because the whole week before he was baptised he turned into the MEANEST kid I have ever seen. He just seem to be full of rage and anger. I would cry every day thinking where did my Hunter go? Then it dawned on me, Satan was really working on him and our family before he made those covenants. He was still really grumpy the day of his baptism, but ever since then he is back to his old self and even kinder. It is like he grew up over night. He is more helpful around the house and more considerate of his family's feelings. He saw me crying one night and became really concerned about me. The next thing I know he is cleaning up every one's toys and watching and playing with his brothers so that I could put the dishes away without interruption. Of course he is still a tease and can still get upset, but it really is so different. I am so grateful to be a member of this church and I am so grateful Hunter is now a member too!
I didn't get the memo that we were doing a funny face!
Helping Dad!
Spencer rents a boom lift every year to put up the Christmas lights - it doesn't get any more Griswold than that! The boys and the neighbor kids love when he gets this because it means - FREE RIDES! The moment the kids get home from school poor Spencer can't get anything done because he is taking kids up and down and up and down.
