Him’s or Her’s?

 

Conversation in Church today

Grant: "Dad, what does that say?” (pointing to the hymnal book on the back of the pew)

Daddy: “It says Hymns.”

Grant:  “Does that one say Her’s?” (pointing to the hymnal next to it)

Emma’s Baptism

The Happy Family at Emma's Baptism

ON November 5th Emma was baptised a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was a really special evening. She played a duet on the piano with her dad, Grandpa Redfearn baptized her, Grandma Redfearn and Grandma Cahoon both gave great talks, and then she was confirmed by her Grandpa Cahoon. There was a really beautiful spirit there.

Pictures left to right are- Emma and Ireland, The O'Donnall family,Rachel (she and Emma are second cousins who share the same birthday) and Charlie, Aunt Marcia and Uncle Scott

This was the table by the door as you walked in. I love the pictures of Emma in her 2 white dresses. Sherrie did a nice job with the decoration. She had pictures of Emma all over the room, it was fun to look back and see how much she has grown. Also for refreshement she had all of Emma's favorites. Pumpkin Pie, Apples and carmel dip, chocolate and punch. She wanted mashed potatoes, but Sherrie talked her out of it.

And since I am updating this, I added this one of Emma and I!!! I was so glad I got to be there for her special day.

Emma’s 8th Birthday

On November 1st Emma turned 8 years old. For her birthday this year instead of a big party she got to take a friend (Gionna) and go see the "So You Think You Can Dance" touring show. Emma loves that show.

So she picked Gionna and they went with the family to see the show. They also went to dinner at Letherby's--Yummy!!

That week Grandma and Grandpa Cahoon, Aunt Marcia and Charlie flew in too, so we got to celebrate with everyone. And there was more celebrating to come with Emma's baptism. Stay tuned..........

Apple Hill 2010

While all of Jamie's family was here visiting, the Cahoon's made the yearly trip to Apple Hill.

Grandma Jane with the kids

Every year the kids take their pictures by the same tree to see how mcuh they have grown since the last time they have been there.

Apple Hill is such a fun place. The kids and the grown-ups love to visit every year. And a visit is not complete without some apples, pie and of course chocolate/carmel covered apples.

Grant Golfing w/the “boys”

While everyone was here Grant got to go with the big boys ( Jamie, Grandpa Cahoon, Scott, and Grandpa Redfearn) to go play REAL golf. They spend the afternoon playing 9 holes at the Bradshaw course.

Grant has quite the swing. He did really good, he did get a little hot and tired at the end and had to lay down for a few minutes.

Happy 8th Birthday Emma!

I couldn’t let this day go by without posting a big, GIANT, Happy Birthday to Emma!!  We did lots of fun stuff today, and that is why I will post all about it later.  But for tonight, I will say that Emma is becoming quite the young lady:

(much to the dismay of her mom and dad—we would like her to stay the sweet, young, innocent, baby girl that we welcomed into this world 8 years ago):

WE LOVE YOU!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
