What a Wonderful & Blessed Day



Sunday Sept 28th, Calvin received his Faith in God Award and received the Aaronic Priesthood. We were all excited, especially Corbyn, because he will now pass the sacrament. We were so blessed to have both sets of Grandparents come from Texas and the Bishop told Calvin how lucky he was to have such a supportive family. I have to agree! Without both of our parents being great examples and encouraging us to do what is right, we wouldn't be here now to teach Calvin and be apart of this wonderful day. The spirit was so strong in the room as the Bishop talked about what a great young man Calvin was and how he was worthy to receive the Aaronic Priesthood. I was fighting the tears the whole time but as he was ordained they finally won. He is a good boy and I love that he has kept himself worthy to follow in his Dad's footsteps. He loves his Savior and takes his responsiblity with humility and reference. It is so fun to see all sides of your children as they grow up. He also had an opportunity on Saturday to not only attend his first General Conference Priesthood Meeting with his Dad, but G'pa and G'ma got them tickets in the conference center, where they could actually see the prophet and the apostles! What a great experience to have! We love you Calvin!
