When in situations of stress we wonder if there is anymore to give. We can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail. Let us remember that we were measured before and were found equal to our tasks. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that God will not over-program us; he will not press upon us more than we can bear.

The Big Party!

The morning of the big party! Our beautiful nerd! :)
Her new gloves and "princess shoes"
Hanging out while all the big kids were playing games
Her amazing cake! To see other cakes that Patrice has made, go HERE!

This year for Lily's birthday, we're basically just joining up with cousins who's birthdays are around the same time. On Saturday, she had a birthday party with my niece Shayla. Shay was turning 10, while Lily is turning two so Shay had a lot of friends there while Lily was pretty much happy to hang out and play outside. We have a ward member who is is starting to make cakes as a business and needed practice, so we definitely volunteered for that! Her cake was PERFECT! Lily loved it! It was a lot of fun! She got a few toys and here in a couple of weeks she's probably going to have a party with her other cousin Robbie when they come to Cedar City. We figure she won't be too upset about that since she's only two and just happy to get new toys! :)
