Kade's 1st Photo Shoot!

So of course I had to get Kade's pictures taken already:) I think that he was 5 days old when my sister talked me into going down to get them taken. I was a little nervous about it, but Ashlie did a great job! She was so good and knew just what to do; it was amazing, no matter what position that she put him in he would just fall asleep. Towards the end we were trying to get some of the naked poses and all of a sudden he just pooped all over and then peed straight in the air!! ha ha it was a photo shoot to remember ha ha:) But I may be biased but I think that they turned out soo cute!! I mean could he be any sweeter?!!

Thanks again Ash, your the best Auntie!!

Don't Mess with Texas!!

Derek finally recieved his mission call has been called to serve in the Texas, Houston South mission. Spanish speaking. He opened his call on Thursday May 28th. We all went over to my parents house and he opened it up around 7:00. My mom went all out and had food from all the other countries and states made for everyone and we had a little buffet and opened his call. He had a bunch of family and friends there to support him. He was so cute when he opened and read it he just cried through the whole thing:) We just love Derek and I know that he is gonna be such a great missionary. He leaves to go into the MTC on Sept. 2nd. I am glad that he is gonna be here a little while longer and that Kade can spend some time with his Uncle Derek before he leaves for 2 years. Congrats Derek! We love ya tons
