Almost four years ago our family attended the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Dedication where we met President Thomas S. Monson and President Dieter F. Uchtdorf. Both of these amazing men shook Caleb's hand and asked him if he planned to serve a mission for our church. His answer was of course, “yes!” Tonight we returned to this temple again and Caleb received his own endowment. He’s one step closer to keeping the promises he made to serve a full time mission for the Lord. We’re down to three weeks… oh my heart!

Caleb’s High School Graduation 2013
I’ll write more later because it’s seriously so late, but graduation has come and gone. Oh man, I’m so proud of my kiddo.
Our Eventful Weekend
We headed to Cedar City on Friday for what promised to be a busy weekend. Minutes before we left we found that we’d sprung a leak and had water flowing through our basement ceiling. What gives? While living in this house for several years as renters, we had no problems. Now that we own it (and have fully renovated it), we’ve had nothing but problems. Sigh….
We ended up just turning off all the water to our house, making a hole in the ceiling to allow some air and covering the floor with plastic… and then we left.
Saturday morning we had family pictures. We’ve been meaning to do this for a long time, but this was the perfect time- right after the birth of a new nephew and weeks before Caleb leaving on his mission.
After the picture, Clint and I ran down to St. George with my Dad to visit my Grandma. She’s on hospice care and not expected to live much longer. I didn’t think I’d have the opportunity to see her again, so it was a blessing.
Later in the afternoon, Caleb baptized his cousin, Kysa. It was pretty special to see these two kids I love dressed in white, both in the process of making important decisions and covenants.
On Sunday, Clint and Caleb stood in the circle to bless my new nephew, Jax (he’s so cute!). Then we made a mad dash home arriving minutes before Caleb’s Seminary Graduation.
