Road Trip to the MTC

Haley said good-bye to Brett, Tia and Landon on Monday night. 

 Haley said this was the hardest good-bye of all...she loves her little Lando!

Cassidy had to leave early for school and didn't stick around for a picture!

I am so bummed!

After all the good-byes, it was time to hit the road.

We loved seeing the snow at Jacob's Lake

Although it was a very quick trip,
it was a great way to spend our last day with Haley.

We sure love that girl of ours!

Blessed

 Landon Brett Allred

 was given a name and blessing by his father 

on November 25, 2012.

It was an honor to be present and hear Brett give his son such a beautiful blessing.

We are so lucky to call this cute little guy our grandson!

(Brett and Tia are pretty awesome, too!)

Landon wore the same blessing outfit that both

Clark and Bennett wore when they were blessed.

 Can you tell that we can't get enough of this cute baby?!

 He is loved and adored by everyone!

Great Grandpa and Grandma Clark

with their first great grandchild!

Most of the Allred clan was in the valley for Thanksgiving weekend, 

so it worked out perfectly for them to be at Landon's blessing.

(I am so sad we didn't get a big Allred family picture!)

After the meetings, everyone came over for a light lunch of soup, salad and rolls

before they headed back to their homes in Willcox and Bowie.

 Look at how many cute cousins Landon has in the Allred Family!

He is #29! (I think)

It was so fun to visit with Brett's siblings! 

 Tia and Landon are blessed to be a part of such a wonderful family!

October Break

 Bennett finished up his swim season

 Clark was cheered on at his football game by Jacob, Isaac and Austin

Clark rolled his ankle at practice on the uneven practice field....UGH!

which resulted in getting an x-ray.  

Thankfully, nothing was broken, but he will miss the next  few football games.

 Sat in the press box with the coaches during the game
and listened to the play calling

  tried to avoid me after the game...he hates having his picture taken!

Good luck with that when you are on crutches!

 Landon attended his first football game and was decked out in his

 Baby Toro shirt!

 Bennett had a garage sale and sold a bunch of JUNK,

but made some great money!

 we loved on this little guy as much as possible!

But the biggest event of the week was....

HALEY'S MISSION PAPERS 

ARE SUBMITTED IN RECORD TIME!

Stay tuned...

Landon's Newborn Session

We are in LOVE with this little guy!

Just a few more pictures from the hospital

and some favorites from his newborn session.

 

Introducing...

It's all true!

Being a Grandma is the BEST!

I knew it would be fun, but it has exceeded my expectations by a long shot.

This little guy has stolen our hearts and we are in love!

Love's Lookin' Good on You

May 13, 2011

WAS THE PERFECT DAY!

Tia and Brett were married at 3:45pm in the

Mesa Arizona Temple by Grandpa Clark.

We loved being surrounded by so many that mean so much.

Brett and Tia were calm, excited and oh, so happy!

We feel so blessed to have Brett a part of our family

and look forward to watching them live their lives together.

 I love seeing them wearing their wedding rings

 My beautiful girl

 We had this picture enlarged and framed for the centerpiece at the candy station

 I love this picture

 and this one...

Happy Eternities Mr. and Mrs. Allred!

We'll post reception pictures as soon as we get them!
