Oh this boy...no matter what, has my heart. I love him. He was so excited to turn eight and have a party with his friends and be baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He was excited about his new converse shoes and his suit, his scriptures and to stand up during sacrament meeting as they welcomed him as one of the newest ward members. Life, when it is going well, is so exciting for him. He has the best giggle, he loves the dog, he's a great athlete and he loves his family. So proud of who Triston is and who he is becoming as he navigates his life.
He participated in the school choir this year and loved it. He did well, here are some cute pictures of his performance.
Here he is on his birthday morning getting his awesome shoes!
That evening we had a very loud, rowdy, cute bunch of boys over to play games, eat pizza and have cake and ice cream. It was a success and we learned to never have a party at home anymore. Way too much work for the parents!!!
Noah, Matthew, Isaac, Brody, Alex,

The smile says it all. Such a happy boy.
And that suit, from Grandma, makes him look so dapper!
