New York, New York

In early November we went to New York for the 2nd time to visit Suzanne and the family. Paige was getting baptized and really wanted us there. Not to mention the kids really wanted to BE there! So- we went. My mom went with us to help me out with 3 kids. First time flying with Joshua- so it was nice to have her there. It was so much fun. It's always nice to get away for a little bit. The one special thing we did while we were there, besides the very special baptism of Paige Mckenna Quillen, was to go to New York to see the Statue of Liberty. It was GREAT!!! I loved it, and the kids LOVED it! I don't think they will EVER forget it! So here are the pics of that wonderful event!

Suzanne, Paige and Samantha sang a really pretty song at the baptism. Samantha still sings it. Maybe she will want this one sung at her own baptism in May this next year. Hmmm...

Oh- Aren't they cute together?

Paige opening birthday gifts and baptism gifts.

Perry stole Paige's hat. It did look really cute on her!

On the ferry to the Island to see Lady Liberty herself!

And there she is!

Do we look good or what?? I decided that being the Statue of Liberty for Halloween next year would be a good idea.

The (big) kids!

Me, Samantha, and Jacob

and Samantha (she is such a big helper!).

I think this at least catches me up to the first week in December. Phew!! Now to just get my last Mt. SI hike pictures and Christmas pics up. It's on the list! Anyone want to take a guess on how long it will take for me to do that???
