A Beautiful Day


We left San Diego for Claremont, CA (a suburb outside of LA) where Chris and Cassy live. Shaina was baptised and it was just a very personal, beautiful, sacred day. The baptismal service was so sweet and spiritual. Jace, Shaina, Chaz and Parker all sang "If the Savior Stood Beside Me," with Rick, Mike and Chris. Cassy said the most touching words about our cute Shaina girl. We are so proud of her. She is a great oldest cousin and a great example.

After the baptism, Cassy threw the grestest post-baptism shin-dig ever. In true Cassy fashion, it was stylish, perfect and effortless all at the same time...even while offering a full meal and cookie bar for over 50. For more details (it really is worth the look) click here.


It was so fun to see where they live. Claremont is just the most charming city. It has tons of personality and history you would never know it was a suburb outside LA. And, Cassy's house is even more creative, stylish and homey than it looks on her blog, and she did it all on a budget with a lot of stuff from the thrift store. But definately check that out too. Here is a link. She is AMAZING.
