I walked into my room yesterday to find my two guys shaving. They looked adorable so I snapped a pic. Luv it when Oke is home!!

Ward Xmas Party

Friday night was our ward Christmas party. I was in charge of it this year since we didn't have an activities chairman at the moment. I called all of my friends for food advice and here is what we ended up with: 13 hams, 150 potatos, 4 pans of rice, 8 cans of corn(costco size), 200 rolls, 6 sliced watermelons= 360 pieces, 4 huge pans of mixed greens, Favorite holiday desserts to share and a partridge in a pear tree!!!! It was crazy busy! The kids had a lot of fun and Lila was in AWE of Santa. WE also did a service project for two local families. They will have a wonderful Christmas because of our wards awesome members and their generous donations.
* Note to self....Do Not Volunteer Next Year!!!!! LOL

My Baptism Day

What an awesome day! David has come so far since those awful days in the hospital. He is our shining star...how lucky we are to be his parents. His baptism was full of family and love. Uncle Taki spoke on the Holy Ghost and Blake gave a wonderful talk on Baptism. Tanner bore his testimony and Papa gave the confirmation. Many friends and cousins attended. We ended the night with a big luau. Thanks for making our day soo special!
