The Romney Family

May birthdays....

Matty turned 12.  He was soooo excited to be

ordained a deacon and do all the things deacons

get to do...like pass the sacrament, collect fast offerings,

and attend mutual with all the big boys on Wednesday 

nights.  He worked super hard memorizing his Articles 

of Faith so that he could receive his Faith in God

Award from primary. (I may or may not have had to bribe

him to get those memorized before his birthday!) But he did

it, just like I knew he could!!!  Matty is a good kid.  He

LOVES to play baseball and he also loves to annoy his 

brothers.  And sometimes his mom.  I can always count on

Matty for a sweet hug and kiss.  He's entering that "I'm Cool"

stage of boyhood.  For some reason it is swaggy to hang your

tongue out in every picture.   

And our Sammy boy (MY BABY!) turned 9.

He still loves to play with his legos, and we went 

shopping with his birthday money to pick out a new

set.  He stayed up too late on a Saturday night putting them 

together, and then got up early on Sunday morning 

to work on them some more.  He likes to play video games, 

play baseballwith his brothers, and 

loves playing with his little neice and nephew!  They adore

Sammy, too! He's still shy and sweet and mama's baby.
