Well it has been too long since our blog has been updated so rather than try and catch up on everything, we are going to just start and maybe go back to the Holidays. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year so we will try and document them with some pictures and events.

So here we are 2009. Sam turned 8 years old. He decided to get baptized and we are so proud of his decision. He really is a delight in our family. He makes us all laugh and keeps everyone guessing with what is next with his creative, crazy antics.

We got Sam and a few of his buddies together and took them out for a night of bowling and pizza. It was a great time and the boys, girls and adults had a great time.

Here are some pictures of Sam's Baptism. We had the baptism in the morning and a quick family lunch at our home.

We then headed down to US Airways Center for the Harlem Globe Trotters. Angela's Flip Zone was doing the halftime entertainment and Hannah was dressed up and ready to perform. It was so cute to watch the girls dance and the audience loved it. It was a fun time for Hannah and all of her dance friends.

We did enjoy the Globe Trotters too. Sarah was very glad that that she made it through that weekend and was able to relax for a few days after all the preplanning.
