This last weekend we got to go down to Farmington to my brother Edward's house for our niece Elizabeth's baptism. I didn't get any pics of the special birthday girl, so thanks Stephanie for posting a cute pic of Elizabeth and Edward! We had a blast with family as you can tell from the pics! The baptism was on Saturday and was great. It was neat to hear Elizabeth sing with Dale or Grand-dad (Stephanie's Dad) and it was good to hear talks from both Mom (Jani) and Denise (Grammy). Then all the nieces and nephews on both the Felker and Wright side that was there sang "I am a Child of God" for the opening song and Kayley was the loudest! I was afraid she wouldn't want to do it cause she is shy about things like that at times, but apparently not, so I'm excited for the Primary program later this year!Then we went to Ed and Steph's house for lunch afterwards and the kids loved being able to play like crazy in their great spacious backyard! They played until dark as you can see from our trampoline pics. Then it was time for baths and let me tell you that we did start with clean water for all the little kids, but it didn't stay clean for long as you can also see from the pics. Then, we all surprisingly had beds (the adults) and the kids loved being able to sleep with their cousins, so it didn't matter that half of them ended up on the floor. Then Sunday came and our trip had to be cut short as Nick woke up with one of the biggest headaches. He took some medicine that made him nauseasted and he ended up throwing up on the way to church and then we left after sacrament meeting. But we had a great time with family.
One of Kayley's highlights of the weekend was getting the Rainbow Brite doll from Grandma Jani, as you can see in the pics here. She would have taken a bath with her if I had let her. Mom brought the one from when Katie was little that still is in her basement and let Kayley have it and she has been indebted to her ever since. When she gave it to her, Kayley said "Well, I was waiting until garage sales, but they take too long." Needless to say Rainbow went with us everywhere and still does and if she's not with her, she tells everyone that she has one now. It's cute.

Awe...she finally got her Rainbow Brite doll. I'm happy for her. Has she kicked her coveted Pocahontas doll to the curb already? You are going to have to take out a loan to stay on top of all of her doll obessions!
Thanks again for coming. We really appreciate it. I didn't know Nick threw up on THE WAY to church! Did you have to pull over?
And Kayley was definitely the star of the song! So cute!
Don't tell me that you don't see that rockin' 80s do? :)
Sorry, but I have to comment again. I just had to take another peek and I just laughed till it hurt and I had the characteristic Felker snort come out. Mike was loving it, too. I think I could look at this picture again and again for the 80s do! Thank you, thank you for the awesome laugh!
That is pretty funny! Nick had to be told what kind of hair-do that would be...let's just say his hair was longer when he was younger, but not that long! So, no side pony-tails for him thankfully! :)
