Brendon turned 12 in June, and we celebrated by moving on his birthday! So exciting...we know.
But after we moved all our stuff to our new place, we drove back to Phoenix so that we could attend our old ward one last time and have Brendon's priesthood ordination there on Sunday.
So, I don't like to get all mushy, emotional here on my blog, but it was pretty awesome to be there as my husband ordained my son to the Aaronic Priesthood. One of those great moments in life that I want to (and will!) remember for always.
The rest of church was emotional, too, as I said goodbye to all of the young women and countless friends. I am sooo missing them all.
And then we continued our celebration for Brendon by having a family lunch at Evan and Laura's home. It was so kind of them to host--they have a wonderful home that is perfect for family gatherings. Thanks again to all of our family who came and celebrated with us!! We are so proud of Brendon and the steps he is taking in his life--he's turning out pretty great so far!! We'll see what the teen years bring =)

I love Jonathan's face in that picture! I can't believe how much Brendon is growing up. Wish we could have been there. We hope things are going well for you in Kingman!
Very good family, say hi to Phil, and congratulations for his new job!
