Tylin's Baptism Day


Tylin was baptized this weekend and it was a great day! She looked beautiful dressed in white and she was so excited. Grandma and Grandpa Sorensen came from Utah, and Grandma and Grandpa Yearsley, Dawn, Morgan and her kiddos came from Idaho. We also had several good friends come and support her. She was baptized and confirmed by her dad and he did a great job. She also got some really neat gifts from everyone, I know she will enjoy them throughout her life. It was such a special day for our family. I am so proud of her and her decision to be baptized.

Twin Lakes Camping Trip

We had a great camping trip last week at Twin Lakes. It was so much fun to get away and relax, well as much as you can relax when camping with two 18 month olds. We took the trailer, which we couldn't have gone without.  The kids got to do a lot of fishing, some swimming, hiking and lots of eating good food.  We kept one of Tanner's fish and cooked it up over the camp fire, it was surprisingly good. Everyone liked it, even the babies.
The babies got really dirty. They were running everywhere, eating rocks, and throwing dirt at each other.  It was so fun to watch them explore.  They got to touch their first fish, and played in the lake.



We had a fun time and I hope we can go back again next year.

Ty's Birthday

Tylin turned 8 in July. She is growing up so fast. She is so much help to me with the babies and she is very responsible. She loves gymnastics, singing, riding bikes, and is looking forward to starting dance this fall.  She also loves to read and is reading at a 6th grade level. She is our smart cookie. For her birthday she got to invite a friend to go swimming.  Then our family went out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant. It was delicious, but twins and beans and rice equal disaster. They made a bit of a mess and every time they screamed the whole restaurant was looking at us, so we had to cut it a bit short, but they gave us fried ice cream for her birthday and it was so yummy!!
I attempted the zebra cake again this year after I destroyed it last year, and it turned out really well. So I was relieved. It was a fun day , Happy Birthday TY!!!
