The first of this month was very exciting for our family. We baptized our first child, and blessed our fifth child. Lots of family came up for the weekend. I felt so blessed with family and friends. And so grateful for Rachel making the decision to be baptized, and to have a beautiful, healthy baby to bless. Rachel and Rebekah in their white dresses.
David's family and my family who came for the events. We had such a fun time together, and it really made Rachel feel very special to have so many come.

Katie took this picture of me and Rebekah, and I rarely have great pictures taken of me, but this was a better one. I made Rebekah's dress, with some guidance from my all-wise mother. Rebekah looked beautiful!
This is our new family! It's hard to believe we have five children, but we are so grateful to have each one of them. I love being a mom, and although it is challenging in many ways, I can't imagine my life without these precious children, and wonderful husband. I have had my days where things are definitely not as picture perfect as this picture is, but even with those days, I know I have been given much.
