Garretts 12th birthday!!

I cannot believe that our little Garrett is 12 years old! He recently celebrated his birthday by going ice skating with his buddies and his family. We had a really fun time! Melissa and I are so blessed to have such good kids. I have to admit I got a little misty eyed (so did his mom!) when Garrett passed the sacrament for the first time. Scott blessed it that day also, so it was a special sunday for us. Garrett is everybodys friend! People love him right away after meeting him beause he is such a cool kid he just goes with the flow! He is excited to be playing tackle football for the first time this year so watch for the pictures and posts of him playing football soon!

Okay guys, I totally found your blog through Monya's. I know I'm a creepy blogstalker. Um Garrett is twelve? Are you serious? That creeps me out a little. I think that means I am getting old. I can't believe how grown up all your kids are! Krystle Garrett (technically it's Johnson now)
