I remember your mom always being up for taking us toilet papering. She was so much fun. Alexa is so cute with her little pose. She looks so much like you!
I love you too, Alyssa and enjoy having you and Alexa in our home. The party was REALLY a surprise and sooooo much fun. I loved how you ended my 50 Favorite Things with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is was makes everything else matter and eternal. I have given out 3 Book of Mormons of the 50 you had as party favors. I am very excited to share the gospel more with others and give out the remaining 10 books. KT came and got one this morning to give to a friend at work. If anyone wants one, call me. We have the missionary fever now---must have caught it from Tommy!!!
You'll have to tell your mom that I love the Amy Grant song "baby baby" too!
And I can't wait to see you soon Alyssa...wink wink.
