~Eli's Christmas in Heaven~

For as long as I can remember, I have always loved the Festival of Trees.  There is such a neat spirit there and the money goes to a wonderful cause.  Logan and I have gone every year and look forward to to seeing all of the trees decorated in honor of so many incredible people.  You can imagine our excitement when I received a call a few weeks ago from one of my sister-in-law's cousins asking if she could decorate a tree this year in honor of Eli.  Logan and I were so humbled that these women thought of our little family and we told them we would be thrilled to have them put together a tree in his name. I've heard the ideas these ladies have for the tree and can't wait to see the finished product! The theme they decided on is "Eli's Christmas in Heaven".  I know it will be perfect!  Many, many thanks to everyone who is helping!

My oldest niece got baptized on Saturday.  It was so fun to spend the day with her while we celebrated her baptism and birthday.  I'm so proud of you, Mady!  8 sure is great! Have fun in Disneyland this weekend!


In other exciting family news...for those of you that didn't hear the announcement on Facebook: My oldest brother and his wife recently found out that they are expecting their 5th boy!  Can you imagine?!  Talk about a wild and crazy house!  I have to admit I'm slightly jealous they'll have their very own basketball team.  Congrats, Paul and Cheryl! Can't wait to come visit all of you and that new little peanut in a few months!
