Great to be Eight!!!

Lizzy is 8 years old.

Its hard to believe that Dave and I have been married for 10 years,

we have an 8 year old,

and we are in our mid-thirties (ughhhh).

Although I don't really like the fact that we are old enough to have an 8 year old-

I am so glad the 8 year old we have is such a sweetheart.

Lizzy has been so excited to turn 8 so that she could be baptized. We had a really great turn out for her baptism, including my parents from Utah, Dave's parents and some of his siblings from San Antonio. She sang "When I am Baptized" with many of her friends, and got to wear a vintage looking white dress that she picked out herself from Stausberg Children's. I think the pics say it all, but I wanted to add 8 things I love about Lizzy:

She is kind to others.

She has great faith.

She's a great big sister.

She wants to be just like her mom.

She absolutely loves her dad!!!

She is obedient (mostly).

She is ambitious and always wants to be involved.

She's not afraid to do what is right.
