Wow! I can't believe Luke is already eight and will be getting baptized soon! He is growing up into such an amazing boy and we love him so much. He grows like a weed and is already a few inches taller than Maryn who is two years older. He wanted a Vampire cake for his birthday (must still have Halloween on the brain), but decided to go with his favorite football team instead - BYU! Every other year the kids have a friend party starting with age five so this was Luke's year to have a family party. Daron and I took him out to dinner the night before his birthday, and on his birthday we all went to Pojos (like a huge Chuck-E-Cheese).
Two of the things he was most excited about turning eight were getting his own set of scriptures and starting scouts. At scripture study every night he has been using my old ones that are so beat up and have pages missing. He couldn't wait to have a brand new pair. He was also so excited to start scouts since most of his friends have already turned eight, and he has already started memorizing the scout promise.
