And then there were EIGHT!

We were honored to have Tom and Amber bless their son Trey in our ward during Labor Day weekend. Trey Stephen was blessed by Thomas Stephen and Stephen A. was one of many priesthood holders that participated in the blessing.

And then there were eight -- and we are so blessed.

Carly turns two!

This is a perfect picture of sheer joy at having a birthday! Carly turned two in August and LOVED being the center of attention at her party.


Her mom made her a "Carly-Bug" cake.


Two years old and already pondering her future!


The great-grandpa's enjoy a cake and ice cream party.


Carly shows Grandpa De her new kitchen. He wants her to fry him an egg, but she needs to heat up her baby's bottle.


We sure do love you little Carly-Bug!
