Mckay Turns 8 and is Baptized

It seems like we have been celebrating Mckay's birthday the past month. But, on June 12th he finally had his real birthday. This was his special birthday, turning 8 he was able to be baptized. We were able to baptize him in Grand Junction last Saturday. He was so excited but, a little nervous. He looked so grown up and so handsome. He seemed to glow and he continually gave me hugs and told me he was so happy. It was so nice to have the support of family and friends. Many traveled from Utah and we were grateful for their efforts. It was a neat day.

Barney Family

I am currently a stay at home mom of three children. After graduating from Brigham Young University in Biology, I taught school for two years and decided that I wanted to stay home with my children. I have a eight year old son Mckay, a six year old daughter Mckinley, and 2 year old son Beckham. I am married to my high school sweetheart and our journey has taken us many different places together. When Jason finished his degree at BYU we moved to Ohio so Jason could pursue his DDS. After being totally converted to Buckeye Nation and making such wonderful lifelong friends we ventured to Colorado. Jason worked as a dentist for three years and decided he wanted to specialize in Endodontics (root canals). Currently we are in Indiana, as Jason finishes his Endodontic residency. We love the outdoors and enjoy camping, mountain biking, playing softball, hiking and trail running. Both Jason and I run and train for marathons, so a lot of our spare time is spent running. I love to hang out with friends and family, watch The Office and reality TV with Jason, and support my children in school and extra curricular activities. We have been blessed to have so many great friends and a great family and we love blogging so we can keep in touch with so many.
