Next thing I know, Kelsey was showing Peyton just how her phone worked. Peyton couldn't wait to get her hands on it and Kelsey didn't mind. Poor Uncle Chris and Aunt Amanda...their daughter is only a year old and already learning the art of texting, thanks to her big cousin Kelsey! I just had to share!
It seems like just yesterday my beautiful daughter was placed in my arms for the first time. It's hard to imagine that day was 14 years ago. She's become a little too big for us to hold and rock her but at least she still enjoys hugging her mom and dad. Kelsey has grown up and matured into a beautiful young lady. We are so blessed to have her as our one and only daughter! Kelsey, you are such an incredible blessing to our family. You are a great example to your brothers, cousins and friends. We thank Heavenly Father for sending you to our family! We love you so much!! Happy Birthday Kelsey!! 
We decided to make the Ohio State Flag since that is where I was born. Chris and Riley did a great job!. Not only did they have fun together but they both learned about the state flag. For example, there are 17 stars because it was the 17th state admitted into the union and the white circle with the red center not only represents the first letter in the state's name, but also it's nickname, the "buckeye state".
We couldn't be more proud of Riley. He works hard when it comes to scouting! Way to go Riley!
You guessed it!! Now, the two "boys" are side by side playing Call of Duty 5 a couple of times a week! With the two of them playing in our house, the yelling seems to be getting louder! All I hear is..."Cover me, cover me, I'm out of ammo!" Killing zombie's must be a tough job!
At least I know where to find them!! 
Kelsey has made honor roll for two consecutive semesters now. But this time around happened to be more exciting. She made Principal's Honor Roll. Her GPA is 3.88. For some parents, this might not be a big deal, but for our family, it's HUGE! Kelsey spent so many years struggling with school work, going through different tests for a learning disability and nights of endless crying because her frustration level was so high due to not understanding what was being taught! Kelsey has since excelled thanks to Riverside Prep. The class sizes are smaller and most teachers really do care about their students understanding and excelling. This school has been an answer to our prayers. We love to hear that Kelsey looks forward to attending school every day!
And then there's Ethan. We are at a loss for words. He is such a hard worker and always strives to do his best. Ethan made the Superintendant's Honor Roll because his GPA is above 4.0. He always tries his best and is not afraid to ask a question if he doesn't understand. He too loves going to school and enjoys all of his teachers. 
We are so proud of all three of them!! We love you guys!!!
These pictures were actually taken back in October of 2008. I couldn't post them before Christmas because it would of ruined the surprise! My sister-in-laws, Amanda, Liz and I took our kids to the LA Temple to photograph them for Christmas presents for Grandma and Grandpa Horvath. We thought it would be a great idea to have pictures of the grandchildren taken in front of the temple they were sealed in 31 years ago. These are a FEW of my favorites! 
O.K. This is not one of my favorites but after two and a half hours of picture taking with 8 kids, we still had a sense of humor!! My sisters are going to kill me!!! Love you both!!!!
