Being the oldest, she has a lot of responsibility and often feels picked on. We are so proud of her for all that she does to help her Mom & Dad out. She just started singing and dancing and has an amazing voice. She along with her sisters fill our home,car,stores, ect. with song ALL the time. She also sings in her school choir and loves to perform!

She is so silly and makes us laugh. she is also very tender hearted and hates when anyone is upset with her. But don't be fooled she has a mischievous side!

~ A Love That Will Never Grow Old ~



OK so I have to brag for a moment because I am pretty much married to the most AMAZING man ever. He is my everything, my very best friend that I can laugh,cry, fish,shop,or just hang out with. He is my rock when times are hard. He is a fabulous father to our girls. He is the man I want to grow old with. We know each other inside and out. We have experienced so much together. We are the firm foundation that our family sits upon. We have had many trials that have tried to shake us, but nothing or no one will ever succeed. We are still after all these years totally IN love with each other. There is a saying that when you love someone, they know, but when you are IN love with someone EVERYONE knows. We are so blessed to be able to experience this life with each other, to raises our girls together and to have the knowledge and strength to get through anything that comes our way. I'm so grateful for the comfort and security Gordon provides for the girls and I. I love that he never lets a day go by without saying I love you, many many times. I love that he gets me, very few people get me the way he does. I love that he makes me laugh at myself for all the clumsy things I do and say. Most of all, I love that he's mine!

~Let's Start At The Beginning ~

Once upon a time there was a ......... Umm yeah no cute little fairy tale here, we are a real as it gets, and that's just how we like it! Gordon and I have been married for almost 12 years. We met when I was 17. He was home on leave from the Army and I happened to be living with his best friend, my cousin Jason. We spent a few amazing fun filled weeks together before he had to leave, thus began our long distance romance. We talked on the phone ALOT, I pretty much worked to pay my phone bill. He was worth every penny! We got married on March 23,1996 in our true spontaneous style, in Las Vegas Baby!!! We have never been ones to follow what "everyone" else does so this was right up our ally. You should have seen the place, I still laugh every time I think about The Little White Chapel. Good times, anyways We had our first of THREE girls on September 27,1996 (congratulations you can all do math) Haylie Dee was such a good baby, we had no idea that we could love 5 pounds 3 ounce so much or that our amazing love for each other could possibly grow any stronger then it was. Our very little Mallorie Noel joined our family on October 26,1998. Weighing in at a small 4 pounds 12 ounces. She had a rough start and a lot of sleepless nights for Mom and Dad but we loved having our two little giggly girls. To complete our beautiful family, Madison Blair was born on June 3,2000. she was our biggest baby, 5 pounds 12 ounces! I know, most people have babies twice the size of mine. No complaint here, I would totally deliver more if I did not have to A. be pregnant and B. raise them! While nothing about our marriage and family was necessarily "planned", we are so grateful for all of our blessing and I can diffidently say the Lord knows what he is doing, which is great because we very rarely do! Our family was sealed in the Mt. Tipanogas (sp?) temple on our 5th wedding anniversary. Hands down, BEST day ever! Our girls looked SO beautiful. There is never a dull moment in the Baxter house, those of you who know us well know that our life is always crazy!
