Macie's Baptism

Saturday January 2, 2010 Was a very special day here at our house! Macie was baptized a member to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints. My mom Grandma Eves is staying with us for the winter. She is an amazing seamstress, and she worked very hard on a BEAUTIFUL dress for Macie. Every time she puts it on we sing... "Girl's in white dresses with blue satin sashes" We had a wonderful, spiritual day Macie was absolutely glowing!

We found the perfect pattern, I remember loving a dress mom made me as a girl that was a perfect spinning dress! I wanted Macie to have a spinning dress, Mom did an amazing job! Below, Grandma Eves & Macie.

Our wonderful family!

We love our girl!

3 Generations. Grandma Eves, Mom And Macie.

Spin and sit. Macie was doing this all day. It was so fun to watch her.

Isabella, Macie, Cali, Tasiana. What a beautiful bunch of girls! (just after the baptism.)

Grandma was having a very hard time with her sewing machine! She never gave up! Thanks mom! Notice the blue tulle slip to make it puffy! So cool!

Macie was baptized by Her daddy I love my Sweet Girl!

We Love our Beautiful girl!

We got a Wii as a family gift We are enjoying it SO much!!We also had my mom here with us for Christmas this year! What a treat! Ron & Rhonda Chance came over again to open gifts! We love it! They may as well be family! Enjoy the photos!

All the kids seeing the gift's from Santa on their way down the stairs!

Here we are eating our tradition breakfast in our room before we go down to open gifts! Sugar cereal is a treat today! This is a tradition Cameron did as a child.

In backwards order! Here is Christmas Eve, opening our new PJ's! We love them!! This is a tradition Rebecca's family had growing up.

The Christmas Tree Is Down! :-(

We took our Christmas Tree down yesterday for family night. It was sad! We usually have it up until after the 1st but we are going to be busy with Macie's baptism on Saturday. We are very excited for her!

We were so busy before Christmas that we didn't post any pictures of us even getting the tree. Here is a late post of our tree hunting experience.



There was a little snow but it was a very nice day.

No we are not going to dig up the tree. These are "walking sticks" for the boys. It was really hard, crusted snow.

The kids were very excited to be up in the mountains and in the snow. Not something we see a lot of here in our part of the country.

This is ended up to be our perfect tree! It was about 13 ft tall and very bushy. It was beautiful!


This is the price you have to pay to get the "perfect tree". I slipped in the icy snow and stopped my fall with my face. Bec sure looks great! I am a lucky guy!

Macie is going to get someone, or two people with snowballs.

Daniel fell down in the icy snow in the same place as I did with the same results!

The tree loaded and ready to go!

The family with our prize tree!

Here is the tree in our house! It takes up a lot of the front room!

Putting the lights on. It takes two ladders and good balance to get them up to the top!

Here is the finished product. There are alot of stories with all those ornaments! This was a great tree!

We had a great Christmas! Sorry for this beautiful tree to go, but now it is time to for the new year! Happy new year everyone!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

LOVE THE KNUDSON FAMILY!

Here is the link to watch footage to the Last game of the year! Braden Broke his rib 4 weeks ago and thought his season was over! Well he was back in the game for the Last one! Friday he played the whole game and played well! He scored 2 of the 3 touch downs his team got. Sadly the other team got about 3 more touchdown's! So Marysville lost pretty bad! But He did well. Both of his touchdown's are in this footage. They call him "Nudson" Every time they announced his name at the game it was "Brandon Nudson" Kinda funny! He is # 25! Enjoy!

Time just keeps flying by so hang on!!!!

Hey everyone! We are still here. Life is going great and we are loving most of it! I can not believe that it is already November. This year is flying by. Tonight we went to Priesthood preview with Adam. He is 11 and will be turning 12 next October. We also went to a baptism of a boy in Macie's primary class. It is great but weird to see my kids growing up so quickly! Macie will be getting baptised just after the first of the year and Adam is going to be getting the priesthood next year. That means we have been in California for nearly 12 yrs. It doesn't seem possible!
Today I got to bless the Sacrament with Braden and Dallin and Trevor were passing. That was a special experience for me today! I love my seeing my son's maginfying their priesthood and being right there with them. It was great! It is also good to go back and sit with Bec and the family after we were done. That has to be the best part of being released from being the bishop! I love my wife and it is great to be able to sit with my arm around her!
It was a great day today. I love my family. I am a blessed man!!!
