Awesome April

April has been a pretty busy month so far.
Sarah came to visit for a week and we did lots of fun things!
The biggest news this month so far is that Ashlyn got baptized. Jody performed the baptism and it was a wonderful day. Ashlyn was breathtaking in her white dress, shoes, gloves, hairthing, new white earrings and necklace she got. I am so proud of her for making this decision!


Afterward in all white - pure and clean! When I was helping her get dressed she said she felt like she was in all-new "skin, breathing new air and in a new world!"





Before getting "dunked"





The kids colored eggs for Easter




We went to Papago park or Hole in the Rock.







The kids found a crater-like hole to sit in.



We went to see the traveling circus!


Here the girls are on an elephant ride - Cooper didn't want to have anything to do with it, so he jumped in the bounce house!



Goofing around waiting in line. We waited in line for an hour and a half! We were entertained by a traveling juggling unicycling clown.





Ashlyn found a llama that would let her hug it around it's long neck. She was in heaven as you can see!

Congrats Ashlyn! I love that statement she made about how she felt after being baptized. I couldn't have said it better myself! :o) So proud of her! And she looks so beautiful all dressed in white! She really is a little angel! :o) And Cooper is, too! :o)
