Ethan turned 8 on Thursday, and it's been a star spangled birthday. We've had all-American baseball birthday cake,

and there have been some pretty exciting gifts!

But the best thing of all is that now that Ethan is eight, he had the opportunity to be baptized a member of our Church. We are so proud of Ethan and pleased that he made the decision to make this covenant with his Father in Heaven. The baptism was lovely, and Grammy and
Grampy flew all the way from LA to be here with us. They even
participated in the program. Ethan's Daddy baptized and confirmed him. Ethan is beaming.

The whole family afterwards. Ethan is loving his new jacket. So grown up you know!!!

What a grown up little man. I can't
believe I have an eight year old(!) but I sure am glad I do.

It's great to be eight!

What a great birthday!! I definitely think 8 is one of those birthdays that top all other birthdays!! So great to celebrate it with family as well!
What a big week for Ethan! Happy birthday! I'm glad your parents got to be there for it - I would have been surprised if they didn't go. Where did you find Ethan's jacket? He looks so grown-up!
I thought about you all day. I cannot believe you have an 8 year old! I remember how barely pregnant you were at my wedding, and how exciting for the first of the second generation Senior 7 to be born!!!
Happy Birthday big boy! I love the family pic... What a beautiful family:)
Congratulations to Ethan! He does look so grown up! What a handsome little man!
Ethan looked so adorable yesterday at church! I just wanted to scoop him up and take him home. You have such a wonderful family. We are grateful that you are in our ward!
