Christmas Pictures

We had our family Christmas pictures taken this year by a guy who lives in Rexburg named Brandon Bishop. His prices are really reasonable, and we really liked his work. The pictures on our Christmas cards were taken by him. I have had a request for additional pictures of our family, so I wanted to include Brandon's website.

For those of you who live in Rexburg or close to it, we really recommend Brandon Bishop. If you are looking for someone to take great pictures at an excellent price, then contact Brandon!

Emily's 12th birthday!

Emily turned 12 on December 13. We celebrated at Mom's apartment after Elizabeth's luncheon was over. Emily got lots of books for her birthday, including one that Karen put together on Shutterfly that were full of pictures taken of Emily at the John Hayes Museum in Salem. Emily had a chocolate cake that Mom ordered from Deseret Book. It was very delicious. My grandma came to visit this past week. She just left today, and I miss her already! It was nice that she could be here for Lizzy's blessing and Emily's birthday.

Elizabeth's Blessing

Elizabeth had her baby blessing given by Bryce this past Sunday, the 13th. We had a luncheon after Sacrament meeting at our place. Kathy made her beautiful blessing dress. Doesn't Lizzy look so pretty? Devon loves holding his baby sister, and gets upset if someone tries to take her away!

More Pics

I had taken a final pregnancy picture on November 8, so that is what I looked like at the end. Here are also a couple more pictures of Elizabeth.

More Pics of Elizabeth

We have had a couple of people asking for more pictures of Elizabeth. Crystal asked for one of Bryce and Lizzy, so I got one of them sleeping. Here are also pictures of Devon being a sweet older brother.

Elizabeth is here!

On Saturday, Catherine called when I had just got done playing basketball telling me that she was having contractions and I needed to get home and get her to the hospital. At 9:19 on November 14th, Elizabeth Jane was born. She weighed 7lbs 5oz and was 18 inches long. She is a sweetie and already has dad wrapped around her little finger. We brought her home today and Devon has been really sweet with her so far. Both Catherine and Elizabeth are doing well and are healthy. We will post more pictures as we take more. Love you all!

Miscellaneous Pics

On Halloween morning I took Devon to a couple's apartment in our ward who take professional pictures. They had offered to take free pictures of the kids in their costumes, so I made sure to get Devon over there. I thought it was way nice of them to do that. He looks like such a cute little superhero!

I thought the other pictures were funny, because Devon likes to act like he's playing the Xbox while Bryce is. The controller he's holding doesn't even have any batteries in it, but he doesn't know that!
