Ruby is 6

Ruby is 6 now!  Happy Birthday Ruby.  She had a little party after school with some friends, we celebrated at family dinner in Parker, and we went skiing as a family!  Ruby is a sweet little girl and is learning a lot in Kindergarten.  She enjoys dressing up, changing clothes throughout the day, dancing, drawing, coloring, and playing with friends.  We love Ruby! 

Eli is a Deacon

Eli was ordained with the Priesthood last night (Feb. 7, 2019) at our home.  He is an eleven year old Deacon.  President Nelson announced that starting in 2019 boys can get the Priesthood at the beginning of the year that they turn 12 and girls can be in Young Women.  Also, they can go to the temple for baptisms.  Cesar gave Eli a nice priesthood blessing and my parents were there along with Bishop Blackburn.  It was special and spiritual.

Right after his ordination, Cesar, Eli, and I attended the temple with our ward youth.  It was so great to be in the temple with Eli.  He was excited and it was great to see so many of our youth there.  There were 9 11 year olds there (girls and boys).  It was nice.
