| Bright (middle above) is quite the hip hop dancer. |
 |
| Bex (middle back standing) is a beautiful lyrical dancer too ! Amanda and I took Bentley and Cash to watch them at Roy High for a competition. Landon and Kacey were out of town, so Grandma Carol was in charge of the dancers, while we handled the "littles". It was fun to watch them perform. They love it ! Click here to see one of Bexlee's dances. |
 |
| Landon baptized Bex at the White Stake House this morning. Michael Rose's brother's boy was baptized too. When Bex was confirmed, Landon, Michael, Blake Mecham (brother-in-law), Bart Brooks (Relation and also Bishop's counselor), and Marlin Brooks (Great Grandpa) stood in the circle for the blessing. |
 |
| What a beautiful Bexlee :) |
 |
| We had a nice luncheon at Landon and Kacey's afterwards |
 |
| Payson and Bright stood as witnesses near the font for the baptism. What a great opportunity for them ! |
 |
| Glad both Great Grandma's were able to come. |

| I took the girls to Spilsbury Mortuary to see the awesome statue there. I explained to them that when we die in old age, we live in heaven with our Savior in our PRIME, as represented by this statue. They wanted to know what PRIME was. I told them about their mom and dad's age (30's). |

 |
| It was great to hang out and watch a few performances |
 |
| Grandpa Roger came down on Friday, and as usual, he likes to give Bex a bad time by asking, "What's on your shirt?" He gets her most of the time, but she's learning :) |
