This Weekend Was All About Dennis

We had the most beautiful weekend! Saturday was full of yardwork and cleaning. Dennis helped my dad around the yard. Dad is so grateful to have him around. One of the sprinkler pipes had broken and needed to be repaired. A project that would have taken Dad 4 hours to complete was fixed in a mere 45 minutes. Mom and I cleaned and washed all of the cars. They were all filthy and needed a bath.

Sunday was a terrific milestone in our family. On Sunday morning Dennis got a call from the stake presidents office. He was going to be ordained an Elder. We were so excited and knew the family would all want to be there. So Dennis made about a hundred phone calls and arranged for everyone to come. They had to move the ordination to the Relief Society room because there were so many people in attendance. It was a very special day for Dennis and a huge step for him. My Dad performed the ordination and brought all of us to tears. After church we had a luncheon. It was terrific to be able to talk to everyone. The kids had fun playing baseball in the yard. Ashley was so proud...she hit the ball 10 times! I took pictures, but forgot the cord to download it to the computer. So those will be forthcoming.

Thank you to all who came yesterday to support Dennis. It is very much appreciated.
