A day to remember

Yesterday was a wonderful day, and an answer to my prayers.  It's hard to get schedules to align, but they did !  Mom and I were able to go to the temple, and witness our grandchildren be baptized for those who never had the privilege while on this earth.  Tagg was able to perform the baptisms.  This was the second time that Tagg had been to the temple that day.  He had gone with friends early in the morning before school also.  He probably goes at least 2-3 times a week.  Thatcher and Payson have been before, with friends and YM leaders.  This was Brightyn's first time !  She was a little nervous, but loved it.  She thought it was pretty neat that Tagg was able to do the baptisms :)  We are hoping to go again in a couple of weeks, to the Layton temple.   

 

Happy Birthday Ambure

Today you would have been 48 years old.....................

 

Here I am at 48 years

Here is Roger at 48 years

I often wonder which one of your brothers and sister you would look like, act like.......
Would you be quiet, strong willed and caring, easy going?
Would you have a family, and kids for us to love on?

I look forward to the day we will see you again :)
Families are Forever ! 

Bexlee's Baptism Day

Landon baptized Bex at the White Stake House this morning.  Michael Rose's brother's boy was baptized too.  When Bex was confirmed, Landon, Michael, Blake Mecham (brother-in-law), Bart Brooks (Relation and also Bishop's counselor), and Marlin Brooks (Great Grandpa) stood in the circle for the blessing. 

What a beautiful Bexlee :) 

 

We had a nice luncheon at Landon and Kacey's afterwards

Payson and Bright stood as witnesses near the font for the baptism.  What a great opportunity for them ! 

Glad both Great Grandma's were able to come. 

Love these "guys" of mine :)

Program and Baseball and Birthday

Bexlee performed in the 2nd grade musical program.  
Can you see her in the middle with her "hands"?
It was great - see part of it here

 

Then we headed to Hurricane and St. George for Payson's baseball games.   While we were there, we stopped at Hobby Lobby to get THIS GIRL some presents for her 8th birthday that was coming up. 

Getting advice from Grandpa

Kissy Faces

I took the girls to Spilsbury Mortuary to see the awesome statue there.
I explained to them that when we die in old age, we live in heaven with our Savior in our PRIME, as represented by this statue. They wanted to know what PRIME was.  I told them about their mom and dad's age (30's).

After the games - Sweet family and Grandpa Roger

And finally back to the hotel to swim and eat pizza and birthday cupcakes for THIS BOY who turned 14 years old today !  (Feb 28th).  Happy Birthday Pays, we sure love you, and enjoy so much watching you play ball.  Click here to see the party.

This girlie loves her Grandpa :) 

Our life in February

Dad's headstone is done, and will hopefully be set in March 

Mom's still sewing her quilts, though this is a pic Mark took (I think) of her doing some repair work on his pants.  

It was so warm at the first of the month we though we would get started on the grates at the "Pit", but we no sooner started, and the weather turned again.  

I went to a water color class put on by the Relief Society.
It was fun, but I don't think I have the water color gene. 

Having fun with Chat GPT.  

Went to the renovated St. George Temple while we were down at baseball games.  
Probably the most beautiful temple I've seen.

Grandma Ben is doing the Crossfit Open!
She is amazing.  Landon is on this team too, but he was away at baseball when this pic was taken.
