Dear Kids,

 

Here are our beautiful family pictures that were taken in October by Chelsea Searle.  I always look forward to these so much, and treasure how they capture your cute personalities.   Looking through them now, I am struck by how gorgeous my little girl is, and how handsome my boys are.  I am so grateful to be your mama.  I love you.

Love, 

Mom

Picture Proof

Last night we headed over to the Hunsaker's for dinner, and so Chad could go to the Priesthood session with his Dad, Grandpa and brothers.  (We missed you Russ.:)  Normally, Chad does NOT want his picture taken, but this time he was looking forward to it.  

You HAVE to have noticed in my last few pics how skinny my Chad has gotten.  He is in the last week of his second round of the "healthy challenge"  and is still losing weight week by week. I am so proud of him.

If you haven't, check out this picture below.  This was taken before Priesthood session just this last May.  He said this is the picture that when he saw, he knew he needed to do something. Since this picture (well, actually since June), Chad has lost 55 pounds! How cool is that?  And now, the proof is in the picture.
