Dear Kate and Riley,
Zach LOVED being with his cousins and they are all so cute with him. I loved that he is old enough to go off and play and I could just sit and visit with the adults. We had such a good time and it was great for Zach to get to see his cousins be baptized. There are four boys who all got baptized this year and I am grateful that Zach and his brother will have great examples just a few years ahead of them. I know that when Zach is 13 or so and these boys all start going on missions it will be great for our kids to see. I am so thankful for strong, faithful family members who provide my kids (and me) with great examples! We always have so much fun with Dad's family, I can't wait until we can all get together again.
Shooting hoops with the cousins and Papa Frank
Zach and Camryn were best buds, its SO cute!
Feeding the ducks which was apparently one of the most exciting things he'd ever done!
Zach ROCKED Myra's pink scooter. I still wish Santa had brought him a scooter.
Ashton and Braden had a tae kwon do birthday party. It was so much fun and they were so nice to let all the cousins participate! Zach got pretty in to it!
Braden and Ashton got to cut their cake with the ninja sword, pretty cool!
All of the cousins (minus Jake) after the baptism
Uncle Andrew, Dad, Uncle Adam, Uncle Gregor
The sisters in law-- Stacy, Tracy, Amy and me. Aunt Stacy and I are due about 6 weeks apart
The holiday celebrations continued on through the New Year! We really lucked out and had almost all of the O'Farrell clan come out to CA for Ashton and Braden's baptisms and to celebrate New Year's. We missed Austin, Jill and Jake but were so happy to have all of the other O'Farrell cousins in one place (and love that Uncle Adam can fit us all in his house!). So New Year's Eve we headed down to San Diego, took advantage of our last chance at a dirt cheap hotel room (goodbye Marriott!) and spent some quality time with the O'Farrells.
