Noah's little friend Lana loved to hold his hand. Noah would run to the wall while Lana would run after him yelling to hold his hand. Then they would run back together holding hands. They are only 5 days apart in age and love to play together.
I took the kids to Mother's beach and met Debbie, Tiffany, Grace, and Caleb. The kids had a blast playing in the sand and water. They went "surfing" on someone's boogie board and soaked up the sun.
Dustin and I decided to get baptized at the beach on Sunday. Our church, Parkcrest, was having a beach party with baptisms. We weren't planning to get baptized until we heard the message at Church on Sunday morning. The pastor just stated "What are you waiting for? You don't need to get everything in order before you get baptized." Dustin and I were both baptized as babies and hadn't thought about doing it until Sunday. I think it was even more powerful to do it together and to do it at the beach.
Noah helped me make brownies for a party. He did so good that I let him lick the spoon while the brownies were cooking.
