This day was a long time coming! After 3 times through the discussions and many sets of missionaries Nick AND his sister, Mikayla were baptized today! Congrats you two! They were very happy! There wasn't an empty seat in the room and the FIVE missionaries that were there had to stand at the back of the room with Richard and the Bishop.
Of course the long anticipated family reunion was at the same time as the baptism, so I was only able to hang out for half an hour. I realized that of my Dad's living siblings, only he and his baby sister are able to get around without wheelchairs. Here's Dad and his baby sister's husband, Mel.
Uncle Lee and Aunt Chaille arriving in their matching Jazzies.
Uncle Glen and his wife, Charlotte presiding.
Jack and Richard made most of the drive from Seattle today. Alas, Steph had to go to a bachelorette party, so Jack and Jonathan are baching it and play on his XBox.
For most of the last 15 years we have had swimming suits hanging up to dry in our laundry room. Its been a little strange the last 6 months without any swimmers at the house. Jonathan surprised us and started swimming this week. The laundry room is back to normal! And the good news is that he can drive himself to the swimming pool at 5:30 am!

Isn't it GREAT when they can finally drive themselves to early morning practice?
