Reid's Blessing Day

Dear Reid,

March 3, 2013 was a great day for our little family. On this day Daddy was able to hold you in front of family, friends and our wonderful ward family and give you a beautiful blessing. He blessed you to live a life of service and to always remember your divine worth. I hope and pray that you will always remember who you are because if you do, you will be an unstoppable force for good. I love you so much and want you to know you are loved by not only Daddy, Garret and me but also by so many others -- and a few of those others made a special effort to be their on your beautiful blessing day. Always remember who you are, sweet boy.

Weekend in the Lone Star State

In February Ace had a long weekend so what did we decide to do? Take a road trip. Reid was only three weeks old and already out to see the world. We really enjoy spending time with the Burchams so we thought it would be worth it to take a 9 hr car trip to see their bright happy faces. It was a beautiful and lazy weekend.

I love the Burchams yard.

Sara, Reid and I were there too but apparently I didn't get any pictures of us three.

Some things we discovered on this trip are that we still really like the Burchams (even after our long drive there and back), Reid does not appreciate when I eat large amounts of chocolate, and Texas highway patrol officers can be very nice when you speed and break other of their highway laws.
