Baptism Day


I have many nieces and nephews. And they just keep coming! They are all the cutest things in the world and so I love to blog about them! I decided to personally blog about each of them when they are baptized into our church. (click to check out the LDS church)
Carter Dunn (my sister Rachelle's first son) was baptized yesterday. Carter is the first grandson in our family and I love him so much. I can't believe he is already 8 years old!
A few things that describe Carter: He makes the BEST sound effects you will ever hear! He has the most amazing and contagious laugh! He is the sweetest and kindest and most honest kid! He reminds me a lot of my Grandma Ila! I can tell he is growing up because last time I saw him he came right up to me and gave me a big hug! (Usually he is busy playing with toys or something else!) He is a really good big brother! He loves it when I come over to his house and sleep with him! He is a really good student! He loves the solar system! He loves animals/bugs/sharks/reptiles! I love how he still calls his mom, "Mama"! He skips everywhere he goes, rather than just walks! (really it's so cute! )
I am so happy that Carter has chosen to be baptized! He is being raised by amazing parents and is growing up to be such an amazing boy!

24?

so I am turning 24 and I'm not sure how I feel about that number. First of all, its even and I'm not a fan of even numbers and it just sounds old and .....old!!!! I mean honestly how many single old 24 year olds do you know? Most of my friends have been married for years and are having babies (multiple) by now! But don't worry.. I am completely content with my life right now! I am happy, having the time of my life and carefree! I love the single life (dating, countless ward functions, spontanious trips with the roomies, following the own beat of my drum, doing what i want when i want, having silence when needed..) but I am just saying that 24 is getting up there in age...

I thought of some numbers to represent my life thus far!
