Addie's 6th Birthday

Addie had her birthday this year at Grandma and Grandpa's house. It was crazy and I am sad because I don't have very many pictures. We spent the day at a splash pad and hanging out. She asked for an ice cream cake, so Amber and decided that it would the perfect opportunity to try making one ourselves....haha. If you have never tried making one, I suggest you do. It was pretty comical. Try frosting a cake in about 5 minutes as it is melting before your eyes....I actually think it looks pretty good for how hard and how messy it was. The best part is that everyone loved it and it was gone. Addie still talks about how good that cake was months later. Success. :)
 The cake. Notice all of the melted ice cream coming out of the bottom...
 Happy Birthday to you
 Blow!
 Addie, you are such a darling girl who brings so much love and laughter into our home. You are crazy and we love that about you. You are so caring of those around you and are a great big sister.
Because Geoff wasn't there we skyped him when she opened all of her presents. So I only have a few of her opening presents that I took on my phone.

Happy birthday Addie. We love you!

Macie's Baptism

Macie was able to get baptized this year. What a special day it was. We were able to do it in Utah with lots of family present. She got baptized on July 5, 2014.
Macie and her cousin Mia decided to do their baptism together. Mia turned 8 in January and had been waiting a long time for this. It was such a neat experience and so fun. The program was beautiful and went very well. The spirit was so strong in the room. Grandpa Bradley and Morgan Bradley were the ones who gave the talks. Mia was baptized first by her dad, and then it was Macie's turn. Geoff baptized her and did a great job.  Macie was also lucky enough to have a few friends from Texas show up. They happen to be in Utah at the time of her baptism and took the time away from their families and vacation to come and show their love for her. It was so nice of them and meant a lot to Macie. The friends were: Emma Thomas and her family and Cole Welch (friends from dental school) and his family. It really was a beautiful and perfect day.
 Here is one of Macie's baptism pictures in her dress. What a beautiful young lady. We are so proud of her.
Here is Mia and Macie the morning of the baptism. This is right before everything started.
 Camden really wanted in on a picture and it just wasn't worth trying to stop him. He is so cute!!

 Geoff and Macie all ready to go.
 Seriously love these 2 so much!!!!
 Our little family.
Macie and Mia with Grandma and Grandpa Bradley. We did not know that they had chosen the exact same color to accent their dresses with. It was pretty funny when we showed up and they had the same trim and bows. I love these girls so much. It was a great day with family and friends.
