HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVIA!

I WISH OLIVIA WERE MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR! SHE IS THE TYPE OF PERSON YOU WANT AROUND ALL THE TIME. SHE'S GOT AN ADVENTUROUS SPIRIT AND IS WILLING TO TRY NEW THINGS. SHE HAS BRILLIANT VISUAL CREATIONS. I ADMIRE HER ABILITY TO EXPRESS IN WORDS AND THE FACT THAT SHE TAKES TIME TO WRITE THINGS DOWN!

Happy Birthday DAD!

A good teacher. He teaches by example by going to the temple often with his wife, by serving a mission, by doing kinds little acts of service, by serving in the temple. He also is very direct in his teaching at times. I knew he would teach me how to be a better artist, even if it was a bit hard to hear his suggestions, at least I knew he was being honest. He doesn't beat around the bush. If there is something important that needs to be learned he will share it, through his testimony, through a talk in sacrament meeting, through a conference talk he suggests you listen to or by just telling you. He taught me what to look for in a husband because of the way I've observed him treat my mom! I love you! Love, Ashley

ELI!







Eli seems to need lots of lovin' right now and we're doing our best to oblige! He likes giving us melancholy faces but don't let that fool you, it's easy to get him to grin and laugh!
