Seth's Baptism Day!





 These were some pictures Cordelle shot of him before his baptism so we could send out some baptism announcements.  What a cool kid!
 How handsome is he?
 All spiffed up in his suit Aunt Tallie bought for him.

 Because it was a stake baptism, we only got to choose one thing in the program.  And we were in charge of the talk.  So Seth asked one of his favorite people to do it, his uncle Neal.  Neal did such a good job and it was so fun for me to see Neal do this for Seth.  As for his actual baptism,  the best thing he remembered was..."the water was warm." Haha!  funny kid.  Well, what a great day!  Some family and friends that came were Lisa and Camerons family, both Grandparents, Tallie and Jim, Neal and Brittlyn, Grandma and Grandpa Durrant and Jackson Elhalta and his mom. So grateful for family and supportive friends!
 Seth, Cameron, and Kaden all got baptized the same day!  What great friends.  I am so glad he has good friends!  What cute kids.
After the baptism, we had a nice luncheon of pulled pork sandwiches at our house, and then hurried off to Seth's soccer game, came back to visit some more and then back for a second soccer game where he scored!! It was so fun to have everyone there to see it. What a great day!

Some extra things happening in August

 Got this dresser for free.  Painted it and stuck it in the boys room.  Isn't it great!  Its amazing what a little paint can do to an old dirty dresser.
 I let Jaq ride her scooter a few days to Kindergarten as I drove the 3/4 mile next to her.  Well one day I noticed her smiling so I rolled down my window to hear her just giggling away.  She told me later since the ride to school is all downhill that it was tickling her feet and making her laugh.  Too funny. 
 Everyone ALIVE at this date will remember the MLS Icebucket challenge.  Here is Jaq and Seth accepting the challenge from their cousin.  They were both great sports.



 After the ice bucket challenge, Jaq got so cold she went and put on 2 pairs of sweats, socks and slippers....and since she was dressed up so funny.... it made her whole demeanor act funny as well, naturally.

Seth turns 8!!!

I can't believe that Seth is 8 and will get baptized!  What a joy he is in our family.  He has such a fun zest and excitement for life.  He is active and funny, and such a good kid.  He is the best brother out there and Jaq and Collin are SO lucky to have him.  What a blessing he is for us.  We love you Sethers!

 For Seth's big 8th birthday party we let him invite two friends to dinner at a restaurant of his choice and to the aquatic center for a night of swimming and food!  These boys are silly but so fun! I love that he has great friends.




Collin of course loved getting into the "transformer theme" and even whipped out his own transformer moves with Seth.  What a great day!
