jacob's baptism

Can't believe that he turned eight on the 11th! In our religion you are baptized at 8 - and he was on the 13th! We had lots of family and friends attend, it was really a special day for him. He listened intently as all his grandparents bore their testimonies and we had Teri Hinckley and Kim Delap give talks. After the baptism he chose Dave & Buster's for dinner, fitting end for such a spiritual day, ha!

P.S. love the tennis shoes, Jake, how did you get those past me!

What can I say...been BUSY! Our basement is nearing completion - carpet was installed last week and the baseboards went in on Monday! Now all I have left to do is paint the baseboards and some touch-ups here and there and then we're moving in! My craft room furniture arrived from Pottery Barn, just waiting on one last piece, the cubby bookshelves. My sectional arrived, now I'm waiting on my two leather club recliners! My craft room has been moved down, just need to organize before I can take pix, HA!

The kids are ready to go, minus some much needed organizational furniture, which will have to wait until I find something I like!

Had a busy weekend, family in town for Jacob's 8th birthday and baptism. It was nice to see everyone! I've got lots of pix to post, hope to catch up soon! Pictures from our hot and steamy clam bake on October 6, it was almost 90 degrees! Fun candy corn cookies Sophie and I made, just tint sugar cookie dough with orange food coloring, cut out with triangle cookie cutter and dip ends into melted chocolate!
