David&Hollie: September 2008

Today is my Mom's birthday! I won't tell how old she is, she would probably disapprove of me disclosing that. I just want to tell my Mom that I love her and I am so happy that she is my Mother. We have grown a lot closer as I have gotten older. I like that my Mom will call me once a day to see how I am doing. It is nice to know that she is intrested in what is going on in my life. She has a great love for the gospel and is willing to share her testimony with anyone. I am grateful that she was a stay at home Mom while I was growing up. It was nice to come home to somebody after school. I like that my Mother lets me tease her, even though she doesn't find some of my jokes funny she still puts up with me. :) Happy Birthday Mom!! You are an amazing person! We love you!

Ok I know I have been horrible at keeping up on the posts. I will work on it so that way I don't get so far behind.
I will bring you up to date, we'll start with Labor Day weekend. We went to Swiss Days with my parents and my Grandma Stalder. We saw Elder Uchtdorf there with his family. I didn't take to many photos while we were but here are a few.

On Saturady we went and hiked Bells Canyon again with Dave's friend Brett and his date. We met up at around 7 at night and started off. I thought we were just going to hike to the holding pond but I was mistaken. We hiked our way up to the falls. After about an 1 hour and a half I had to stop. Then Brett and his date and some other couple we picked up on the hike continued on. Dave and hiked back down with just our cells phone for light. We gave the two flashlights we had to Brett and the other couple.

We tried to take a picture where we were both looking at the camera but I couldn't stand the flash, so I decided I would kiss Dave. He may look like he hated the kiss but he loved it!

The stream we crossed over. We didn't get any pictures of Brett and his date. We made it down the mountain around 10. And Brett and his date made it down around 11:30. (They never made it to the falls.) Oh and the couple that we picked up and we let borrow our flashlight never came back. They took off with our flashlight!

On Monday around 3 P.M. Liam Tony Harward was born. He belongs to Dave's older brother Kelly and his wife Tracy. He was 6 pounds 11 ounces, and I think about 19 inches long. He is so cute!

On September 5th my cousin Charie got married! She married Trever Pehrson in the Salt Lake Temple. They are so cute together and I wish them the best in life.
