"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Maddy’s Baptism Pictures

I decided to try and take Maddy’s baptism pictures by myself. I worried about it because I really wanted them to turn out. I took her to the Rexburg Gardens and we just played, we had so much fun. We spent a really long time there and we had a blast. I don’t think Maddy will ever forget having these pictures taken and I love that. The memory was worth taking them myself. I loved the way they turned out and so does she. I love you Maddy and I can’t believe that you are going to be 8! It seems like just yesterday that I held a dark curly haired love of my life in my arms for the first time. I know I posted lots of pictures, I love them all :)DSC_0784 (2)DSC_0718-2DSC_0724DSC_0728DSC_0738 (2)DSC_0750DSC_0763DSC_0767 (2)DSC_0772DSC_0780-2DSC_078201DSC_0613DSC_0802DSC_0674DSC_0810DSC_0814-2DSC_0591DSC_0819DSC_0592DSC_0516DSC_0823DSC_0826DSC_0601DSC_0827DSC_0834DSC_0578DSC_0615DSC_0620DSC_0623DSC_0626DSC_0630DSC_0631DSC_0637DSC_0645DSC_0648DSC_0657 (2)DSC_0660DSC_0669DSC_0677DSC_0693DSC_07070204DSC_0261DSC_0270-2DSC_0313DSC_0350 (2)DSC_0357DSC_0380DSC_0403DSC_0418DSC_0472DSC_0481DSC_0502DSC_0532DSC_0576

She is all grown up.

You take amazing photos! Every single one of them turned out gorgeous.

I am seeing more and more pre-baptism photos on the net and I wished I had thought of that when my kids were 8. What a great idea.
