Our very hard and emotional 1st week in washington

We have moved from our GREAT home in Lincoln Nebraska, it was sold. A sign that was not so welcoming on our broken hearts. Made this move more real and painful then needed to have been.



We Celebrated Caleb's 9th birthday. We went out for breakfast together.

We went bowling with Caleb.

We went to the movies with Caleb, and watched Toy Story 3. It was a hard movie on our hearts, too many similar feelings.

Then we gave and left our special gifts.

This last Saturday on the 26th, Liahona was baptized. She was very nervous but did GREAT. We are very proud of her and her choices to be more like her Savior. Liahona says she remembers when Caleb was baptized, he said "That was so much fun that, I want to do that again." We all laughed and chuckled at that one.... such a Caleb thing to say.


Though it has only been a week, it has felt like much longer than that. It has definitely been a VERY HARD emotional week for us.

I can't believe how much your kids have changed in the last year. Liahona looks so grown up. She is darling. It sounds like her baptism was wonderful.
