What a month!! Isaak wanted a Star Wars birthday party this year, and since we just finished watching the first 6 as a family, and the 7th was in theaters, it was perfect! We limited the number of friends he could invite to 10 (the number of seats we had available in both vehicles) and took all the boys to the movie!! The theater had reclining leather seats and the boys all thought it was the awesomest party ever. I had to agree because it was so easy for us to put together!! We celebrated the day before Isaak's real birthday, so it was a fun 14th anniversary outing for me and Shaun, too!

Birthday breakfast!
Isaak also got to start going to scouts. He loves it so much!
Valentines weekend Shaun surprised us and took us all to the Zurmatt in Midway. It was so nice to get away for a weekend and have some family time!
I love that they all love eachother!!
The night before Isaak got baptized, we went to the City Center Temple open house. It was such a perfect way to start such a special weekend. Jared, Leigh, and Riley came with us, too!
Here's some shots I got of Isaak a couple days before his baptism. It was BITTER COLD! Poor boy tried so hard to give me some good smiles, but he was completely miserable.
The morning of Isaak's baptism!! He was SO EXCITED!!
My sweet Dad baptized Isaak since Shaun left the church a couple years ago. The day was so special, hard, tender, heartbreaking, and perfect all at the same time. The Lord works in his own time and it all worked out completely the way it was supposed to. Right after Isaak was baptized and we were moving to the next room for the confirmation, a member of the bishopric asked me if I wanted to give a short talk after the confirmation. I about died because I had no time to prepare and my first instinct was to tell him no. I did tell him yes, and the words flowed out of me (mostly in an emotional jumble) but I'm so glad I had a chance to tell Isaak some things that were special to me. What a perfect day!
After the baptism, we went to Panda Express with close family. Perfect and easy party!!
Here's a couple pictures from a kids fair we went to. The kids love the balloon animals the most!!
St. Patrick's day dinner at Grandma Jo's. She always has the cutest celebrations!!
