Bryton's baby blessing!

Bryton was blessed by her amazing father on November 9th. Thank you so much to everyone that came to share this special day with us! We are so blessed with family and friends. She looked so beautiful in her little white dress, (made by her Grandma Nola). It really felt like I was holding an angel. Honestly, does life get any better???

MASSUHCARRR!!! (Madagascar in Ryleigh language) :)

As I am sure all of you know, Madagascar 2 came out this Friday. Ryleigh is probably the biggest fan that Madagascar has and was soooooo excited every time the commercial came on. So on Friday Ben, Mal and I took her to see it. This was pretty much the first movie we have taken her to since she was old enough to understand. It was such a blast! The best part of it was watching Ryleigh watch the movie. She would squeal and laugh and yell at the characters like they could understand her. For example, "WATCH OUT ALETS (alex)!!!!!" or "YAY MONKEYS DANCING!!!!!!!"  For the rest of the night she walked around dancing and singing "moobit moobit, i likeA moobit moobit!" Ah I get such a kick out of her. If you ever need a smile look no further than my 2 year old. :) Here are some fun pictures from our movie night!    
   
Mal and I were trying to get her to take a picture and she wouldn't look away from the screen!

 Big Smiles!

 This is Ben and Bryton 10 minutes in....ahh the joys of newborns :)

GENERATIONS

One of the greatest blessings I have in my life is the blessing of my eternal family. I have been so lucky to have so much family so involved in my life. I am so blessed to have my great grandparents still alive and well as well as Grandparents who love me and take such good care of me and my family. There is nothing greater in this mortal world. Below is a picture from Mallory's baby shower. It is a 5 generation photo. In the picture is my Great-Grandmother Pearl, Grandmother Yvonne, My Mother Lisa, Me, My sister Mallory, And my 2 daughters Ryleigh and Bryton. Below that is a picture of Ben's side. There are 4 generations still with us. Pictured is Grandma Law, Ben's mom Nola, Ben, and Bryton. We are so blessed to have each other and I thank God daily for all the family that I have here on earth with me. I know that not many people are that lucky. I do know that one day we will all be together again and that is the greatest peace I have ever found.
