More baptism pics

I can't believe my daughter is 8 years old! We are so proud of her decision to be baptized. We had a wonderful day on Saturday, July 5th, 2008. Brynne was baptized and confirmed by her daddy, Matt. She is such a good example to her sister, cousins, and friends, and we love her!

Book Reviews

So, I promised everyone that I would be more diligent on my posts, so here goes...

I recently read Atonement by Ian McEwan. I was interested in reading this because the movie looked so good, but I never watched it. WHAT A DEPRESSING BOOK! The time period was WWII in England, and the story revolved around a wealthy family. While the parts about nursing and the battle scenes were interesting, it was just such a downer! I would be interested to hear anyone else's thoughts on this book.

ALSO... our book club this month is reading two books: Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell and Eye Contact by Cammie McGovern. Feel free to read along with us and post your comments before July is over.

The kids are getting so big! Here's their individual shot.

My sister's family was here in Utah for Easter weekend. We got all eight grandchildren to sit still long enough for a picture! It was a great weekend, complete with an Easter-egg hunt in the back yard! We were sad to see the Meiers go home :-(
