Lot's of Catch Up

So, I haven't posted since Braden's birthday, and a lot has happened since then. So plan on seeing a whole lot of post over the next few days. Braden started walking about 2 days after his birthday, and has been all over the place ever since. Then again he should be, he's almost 18 months now. Maybe I should start posting things sooner. Anyway, we had a birthday party for Cailyn and Braden on June 12th. My Mom and Dad and Nathan came up from Medford for the party. It wasn't the best planned party in the world but it was fun. Here's some pics of the day.

Gracie's Blessing Day

Oops, I wrote this forever ago(back in September) and forgot to post it.

Yesterday was Gracie's blessing day. My Mom, Dad, Nathan, Katie and Wesley came up from Medford for it. Also Jordan's sister Jenny and her family came to our ward for the blessing. So, super cool story. Jordan gave a beautiful blessing and afterward the bishopric asked that we all sit quietly while they prepare the sacrament. I thought, "that's weird, why isn't the sacrament ready yet." So after a few minutes of waiting and wondering what was going on, the doors on the side of stand open and a group of men walk in, and who was with them? That's right, Eldar David A. Bednar. He said that he was meeting some other general authorities there and was 20 minutes early so he decided to go to sacrament meeting and "freak some people out". He stood up and bore his testimony of the living Christ and then left. It was such a neat day for our family, I felt so blessed to be in the same room as a prophet and listen to him testify that Christ lives. Now we have a cool story to tell Gracie about her blessing day, it was super special.
