Tyler's 8th bday

Tyler a fun time celebrating his birthday with our relatives and his best friend Matty. We had a yummy bbq afterwards thanks to Tim's new grill!

fun with grandparents

Nana and Papa were here for a week, and we had a fun time with them! Here's Tyler showing off the new scriptures they gave him:

Claire still remembers Papa's "sneaky snake" tickle from his visit three years ago!

We were so happy that Grandma Kathy could come too! She was the bowling champ of the day.

We were so grateful to Tim's mom, and my mom for helping, for babysitting the kids so we could go on our 10th anniversary trip!  We stayed in downtown Houston for a night.  I loved going to The Melting Pot for dinner!  We had such a fun time!  I can't believe we've been married for ten years now.  I feel so lucky to have married Tim--he's such a great example and support to me.

Tyler's baptism

Okay, so my mom reminded me again that I haven't been updating our blog... I'm trying to make Lily's baby photo book plus upload family videos from the last six years, so the blog has been put to the wayside. I'll try to do better, Mom!

Here are some pics from Tyler's baptism in May. We're SO proud of him! Thank you Mom and Dad, Kathy, and Estradas for being here on Tyler's special day! Thank you also to our friends who came. It was so neat to have our oldest be baptized. Tyler was very excited that his dad got to conduct his baptism, and baptize and confirm him. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful husband who is also an amazing father and worthy priesthood holder.
