I think it's fair to say that Ryley had been counting down the days to her 8th birthday for at least 9 months! On October 28th, she turned 8 and on the following Saturday, she was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Lucky for her, our new church is right next door to the new Twin Falls Temple (which made it extra special for her). We are so proud of her! Ryley played basketball this Fall and did a great job. Her dedication was fun to watch as she begged me over and over to "time her" to see if she could dribble for 10 minutes without stopping. She is doing great is school and loves to read, read, read, even to her little brother Lance. She can't wait until she can start taking piano lessons soon like Drew and Kaiya. She already spends time playing her own little creations on the piano with the utmost seriousness!

Katelyn was excited to get baptized also. That was one of the last things we did in Germany. Too bad you weren't able to come to that baptism, like you came to Emily's. It's great to see an update! How's Idaho treatin' ya?
