It was a good Sabbath. We went to church in West Jordan to listen to nephew/cousin Jonathan deliver his farewell address. He gave a great talk and then he sang beautifully. He is going to be a high school choir teacher, and has sung in a choir at BYU-I, and has a terrific voice. It was a good meeting. We were sitting all the way in the back of the chapel, in the gym, and Michelle, Brandon, and Mina were sitting near us. I enticed Mina and her baby to come over and sit with us, and then entertained her looking at pictures on my phone and poking through stuff in my purse. She wasn't entirely comfortable, but we were nice. After the meeting, we went over to David and Sharon's for a bit of lunch and lots of visiting. It is always great to be with family and celebrate these moments of growth and progress. Jonathan leaves on Tuesday for the MTC in Mexico and we wish him well.
We don't look like we're being very reverent,
and Mina looks worried that she's with us.
Brandt took Sunday selfies.
This Thanksgiving, we are on an off year with the DeMartinis, but we like to be together and eat good food, so we decided to have an early Thanksgiving together today. I had Brandt help me with dinner, and he took Sunday selfies (more Sunday selfies!) as he peeled potatoes. We had a great time together, eating, talking, playing. The kids like being with cousins, we siblings like to be together, so it was a delightfully tasty and enjoyable evening.
