Baby Bx is Finally Here!
On 3.18.2012 we welcomed to the world William Carl Baxter. All 8lbs 9oz and 21.5″ of him was delivered by c-section here in Salt Lake.

Happy 99th Grandma Myers!
After meticulously gluing all these two layered candles one at a time by hand, I had considered suggesting she save the card for her hundredth birthday and I’d just mail an extra candle. She died several months short of 100…I was happy I’d put in the extra work on this card for her 99th. (candles in progress) Read more →
