Our girls danced beautifully in this year's recital! It was fun to see them so excited to perform and be a part of the production. The show turned out beautifully, thanks to wonderful support from parents and friends. Our costume designer was such an incredible help to me, as well as the other teachers and photographers. Thanks to all for an extradordinary year!

Last week Brendan performed his Suzuki Book 1 Piano Recital for family and friends. It was a special evening as we gathered to hear Brendan's growing musical talent! After the performance, we enjoyed refreshments together. Great job Brendan! You are growing up so quickly.
Last weekend, Michael's mother, sister, and niece joined us for Brendan's baptism. What a special, uplifting time it was! Brendan was just thrilled to finally be growing up and to reach this goal in his life. He has worked hard at daily scripture study and prayer recently and seems to be maturing so quickly.
We love you Brendan! Congratulations on achieving this milestone.
Cinco de Mayo marked Brendan's eighth birthday! We celebrated with a family party and scavenger hunt. A special friend inspired the idea of a lego block cake so we made our attempt and hid the blemishes with a dusting of M&Ms.
Eight years has really flown by... Brendan has brought such joy and compassion into our family. He is so very bright and is a great conversationalist, always making connections and insights in daily life. He protects his younger siblings with tender care. Just last week a teacher at Brendan's school pulled me aside and commented that she had never seen a boy give so much love to a younger sibling. Every day she sees Brendan walk Audrey to her kindergarten classroom, hug her goodbye, and make sure she's safely in the room before heading to his class. I had no idea! What a true sweetheart.
