Kaden's Baptism

Kaden chose to be baptized June 20th. He was so excited!! Cris' parents, along with my parents, and Steven, Maria, and Andrew came down.  Kennedy gave a talk on baptism, and I talked on the Gift of the Holy Ghost. After wards we had a yummy BBQ.
Here is Kaden outside the church after he was baptized.

Our family. This was the best shoot that I got. I wonder if my parents got a better one with their camera.
All the family members that were there.
Kaden, we are so happy that you chose to be baptized, and hope that you remember the covenants that you made that day. We love you, and are very proud of you!!!

Kennedy turns 9 today. I can't believe that we have a 9 year old. She's always full of energy and spunk. Here are some pictures I took of her for her birthday. Here are a few of my favorites.
Kennedy we love you so much!!! Thanks for all your help and for being such a good example to your brothers and sister. You are growing up to be such a beautiful young lady!!! We really enjoy having you as a daughter.

Life

Life has been in full swing in the Moss household, and has gotten the better of me. We have been busy as a hive of bees. I can't wait for it to slow down a bit, and I can just relax. 
It's been one of those weeks. My dryer broke, and would have cost us a couple hundred of dollars to fix it. So we decided to just buy a new one along with a new washer. I really don't enjoy unexpected purchases, but I'm really enjoying the fact that it's a front loader, and I'm loving it!!!! 
We have decided that we probably most likely will not be heading up to Idaho for vacation. Cris is on a lower paid job right now, and money is a bit tight. We will be staying close to home, and go camping. Which will still be fun. We will miss visiting with our family and friends though.
Summer is in full swing with the end of the kids softball and baseball, and the start of swim lessons, and too many friends. Is it just me or is it when you give the kids a little freedom, they take  more, and become monsters??? The fighting starts at sunrise and ends at bedtime. But I wouldn't trade it for anything, even if it puts me in the insane asylum. 
Cris and I are playing on a co-ed softball team again this year, and we are loving it. Kennedy is doing summer school this year for her reading. I'm hoping that it will help her out a lot. She and Kaden both did well in school this year, and can't wait for the new year to start in August. Kaden got all A's and one B on his report card. Kennedy got a few A's, a couple B's, and a C in reading.(hence summer school) Jocelyn and Cole are enjoying the fact that Kennedy and Kaden are home during the day to entertain them. 
That's about all that is going on right now, and I'm hoping to do better at keeping our blog updated better. And just because a post isn't a post with out pictures, here are a few.

Look at my garden, it's growing!!!!! Maybe my thumb isn't so black after all.
