Congrats to Abby! She was the Eagle Of The Month for February! The only bummer part of the story is that yesterday when they announced her winning the award, she was home sick puking (We almost lost a couch....it was too close for comfort but the couch is fine.) 
But thank goodness for good neighbors, right? Because "Like A Good Neighbor, State Farm Is There."
Unlike Liberty Mutual (who is the insurance of the guy who hit me in the Yukon) State Farm will pay to tow you to a shop and you will get fixed and be all better soon. In fact, State Farm won't even raise my monthly premium because I did something stupid like put red diesel in you. They also said they would pay 100% of the bill. I think I love State Farm-they truly are a good neighbor! That Liberty Mutual is like the neighbor that plays loud music all night long, puts beer bottles and cigarettes on your lawn and has oil stains on their driveway. 
On Saturday, Camille was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was a wonderful day!
On the way to the church, Daren asked her if she was excited. She said she was SO excited that she couldn't feel her body.
She was worried if the water would be cold. But it wasn't. 
Most of the day, Camille's face looked like this: (She said she couldn't stop smiling because she was so happy)
It was so much fun watching Camille's excitement. She is such a joy in our family and is excited about EVERYTHING, especially about being baptized.
After the baptism, we had a brunch at our house. For months, Camille has told us she wanted a pink limo to drive her to the baptism, an ice sculpture of herself holding the #8 in her hand at the brunch, a Sushi bar, steak and lobster. Daren says he is in BIG trouble when this girl gets married. We compromised on a chocolate fountain instead. And, it was a hit!
I LOVED watching the faces of the little kids.
Abby, (who told me she felt left out and I told her next year it would be her turn to be baptized) LOVES maraschino cherries. When I was pregnant with her, I craved them ALL the time. I think it's funny that she loves them so much since I always craved them during my pregnancy. Anyway, she LOVED putting the cherries on a stick and dipping them in chocolate. 
I sure hope Brynn didn't get chocolate on her pretty dress. 
And these 2 clowns. Tanner's friend Justin said he was staying at our house until the chocolate fountain ran dry. 
And this little girl LOVED the marshmallows with chocolate.
It was a wonderful day-one that I hope Camille remembers for the rest of her life. There was such a sweet feeling at the baptism and we are so proud of Camille's decision to be baptized.
When Camille saw her face in the mirror (not knowing what Abby had done) she started yelling, "MOM...tell Abby to stop drawing on my face." They both came downstairs with Camille's face covered in Abby's drawings. I asked Abby when she did this, her reply was, "While Camille was sleeping." I was literally biting my tongue trying not to burst out laughing but I couldn't keep it in. "Abby, we don't draw on faces"...was about as far as I got when I couldn't hold it in anymore. We all burst out laughing. As Camille was staring to get in the shower I heard her say to Abby, "This better not be a permanent Sharpie!"
