Isabel's Birthday and Baptism bash

Audrey took her first long road trip to see her cousin Isabel turn 8 years old and get baptized. We were expecting the worst from the drive, so were happy when she only added 45 min or so. Not too terrible. (Sarah added almost three hours, so we keep that as the expectation so we aren't disappointed) ;)

The first big event was her party on Saturday morning. I wasn't on my picture game, but imagine a dozen kids running around in a big house with lots of toys. They made a gazillion pizzas and had a pinata. There was a slight hiccup when a little girl threw up right before the pinata fun began, but Ash and Dave enjoyed scrubbing it up. ;)

Not long after the party, everyone got dressed in their Sunday best and hurried to the church for her baptism. It was a really sweet service. My mom gave a talk on Baptism and Mike gave a talk on the Holy Ghost. I didn't get to listen to Mike's talk, because Audrey insisted on eating, but everyone said it was amazing and made them cry. Good job babe! Isabel was then baptized by her dad Dave.

The highlight of the day was of course the amazing cookies I made for the occasion. Almost too pretty to eat. Almost. (The Mexican food they had catered was good as well.)

Sarah tries on my dress from time to time. It's getting closer to fitting her. :(

We all love our trips to Colorado and getting in good cousin time.
