Miles' 8th birthday and baptism

Miles' favorite gift for his 8th birthday was the wonder loom my mom sent him. He loved it! Oh, and he got 8 dollars from two different people so he felt really RICH! :)

On May 31st he was able to be baptized. It was a great day! I just loved watching Joey baptize Miles and I teared up at the confirmation because I was so happy.

We were super happy that my mom and dad and brother, Grandma and Grandpa Jones and Uncle Josh drove up from Gilbert! We were also super happy Joey's sister, Aunt Lisa and Uncle Aaron and their kids drove up from Las Vegas! Miles' Great-Aunt Jacque and Great Grandma Jones came too. Our favorite babysitter (Addie Simpson) and her mom, his best friend (Brady Komiya) and his mom, the Bezzant Family (some of our closest friends here), his primary teacher, Sis. Groberg (she is the sweetest 78 year old lady!) and Joey's aunt, Deanne, and uncle, Steve, and their son, Adam, all came as well.

Quotes 2016

Clay was jumping from tile to tile in our kitchen, then kind of spinning on each tile, careful to stay within the square shape of each tile. I asked, "What are you doing?" and Clay responded, "I'm square dancing!"

Clay, said every time he prays: "Help us to be like the Gospel."

Clay, said another time he prayed for each person in our family that they could "do good" in either school or work when he got to me he said: "...Please bless mom that she can go to the gym." I guess that sticks out to him!

We were walking into Wells Fargo when Paige saw a man with shoulder length hair and a beard getting into his car. I was holding Paige and she grabbed my face and turns my head toward the man. Then she says, "Mom, there's Jesus!" (November 2016)

In school Miles was learning about the Great Depression. He was talking on and on about it to me and started talking about Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. He was trying to tell me about the president known as FDR (Roosevelt) but instead he kept saying, "KFC" I couldn't figure out what he meant until he said, "You know, he was president after Hoover, everybody called him KFC". I had to explain he was actually known as FDR! (October 2017)
