What a special day we shared with several of our grandchildren who are old enough to participate in the temple. (left to right: Kenadee and Halle Egbert, Madelyn and Hannah McQueen, Connor and Brett McQueen, Zach and Keegan Ryerse, Merl Egbert)
After an opening prayer and message about the importance of the work that is done in the temple, Zach and Connor baptized each of their cousins for 40 individuals. Each of the girls were able to do the recording of these baptisms; and Merl did all the confirmations. What a wonderful experience to share with our grandchildren before we depart. Testimonies were shared, and there was a special spirit that we were able to share together.
Because we did the session early in the morning, "Grandpa" treated everyone to breakfast at Denny's. We so appreciated the visiting and friendship as these great kids enjoyed each other's company. . . a day and feeling we will not soon forget. We love all of our grandchildren and will miss them. Thank goodness for technology!

Some of the family was able to join us at the temple Friday night (Curt and Anna, Todd and April, and Aaron). It was a beautiful evening - inside and outside of the temple. We decided to go to Outback after the session so we could use up a couple of gift cards before we leave the country.
