In August, Zachary was baptized. He was sooo excited and I know he will always remember this special day. I believe there were 9 kids that were baptized that same day, with him so the chapel was packed tight! Jake gave him a beautiful blessing and confirmed him. Alongside him were Grandpa Shoff and Criddle, Uncle's Ben Schmuhl, Michael Criddle, Josh Criddle, Ben Criddle, Nate Criddle, James Shoff and friend Justin Makin. The most special person standing in as well, was my grandpa, who will be 90 this year! Zachary was so excited that great-gramps could be there to help confirm him!
We took a fun vacation this summer to Arizona and went to the Grand Canyon...This was just one of the few family shots we took in all of 2011. As I said. I am a slacker!
Zachary started 3rd grade this year and is doing awesome! Although when he brought home his class picture, I asked him to point out the naughtiest kids in class.. He then pointed to two other kids and himself.....without hesitation. Oh boy!
One of the biggest reasons I was a slacker in 2011, was because I was in school full-time. In my Christmas letter, I posted that I had graduated with a B.A. in Psychology in October! This was my graduating group below me. Good people! SO glad to have that done and am grateful to all those who supported or helped me through it! Now onto bigger and better things!
