Katy Youth Basketball 2008

Ethan, Matthew and Rachel all played basketball this season.  Love the fast paced game.  Ethan and Matthew did great.  They both had coaches that were in our Westlake Ward, Scott Adelman, Mike Skye and Greg Robertson.  Which meant that their boys were on the team too.  It was a great experience. Rachel had a good season too as soon as we were able to convince her to get out on the court. It was Matthew and Rachel's first Katy Youth Basketball experience.  

End of Season Basketbal Party with their cutiest fan!

Emily Jones Baby Shower

I helped put on a baby shower for my friend Emily.  She had a little trouble getting her family started and was able to adopt a sweet baby girl, Shea, who is Matthew and Rachel's age.  Then had 3 boys, Alex, Cody (Lauren's age) and now Zach.  This story sounds a little all too familiar, she just needs one more boy. 

Emily & Stefan lived around the corner from us when we first moved to Katy and we were in the Westlake Ward together.  I was her visiting teacher and will always remember going to her house on September 11, 2001 to wish her a Happy Birthday.  Then she moved to the other side of I-10 and we followed.  So we were in the Katy 2nd Ward together, also. Great Memories!

Tea Time w/ Princesses

Lauren had a sweet play date with her friend Ella and sister Addy.  Such cuteness!!

Happy 40th Anniversary Mom & Dad

THEN (Doesn't my dad look like he was 14 years old? & I think my Mom must have worn a size 1 when she was married)

NOW (Just as good looking as ever! However, I am sure I was never the cause of any of that grey hair!!)
I just want to let my Mom and Dad know how much I love them and appreciate all that they do for not just me, but everyone. They are great examples of people who serve others and have charity. They work harder than anyone I know. They are extremely selfless. Their testimonies of the gospel are strong and it shows. When they have time, they know how to have fun. Their patience is unbelievable. They have friends everywhere they go. I am so blessed to have them for my parents and grandparents to my children. I truly admire them, look up to them and strive to be more like them.

Thanks Mom & Dad

Happy Anniversary!
