General Conference/Lauren's 5th Birthday!

Warning! Lots of cute pictures ahead!

For General Conference weekend, Tod came to Santa Rosa. Friday night the Gardineer's arrived. We had too much fun together! The boys did some golfing, the girls did some painting! We made it to the park, to the swimming pool, and to Chunky Funky Monkey for Lauren's birthday party! What a treat to be able to celebrate with her. She is really the sweetest little girl. She woke up the morning of her birthday and we went into the kitchen to get some breakfast. When her mother came in, I overheard their conversation. It went something like this, "Mom, can you tell I look bigger today? I can't really tell!" It made me smile. She was sure she was bigger because she was now a five year old! I love this sweet grand-daughter, and it was so great to be with everyone this weekend! Thanks for coming to visit! It means a lot to all of us!
