MTC - In Bountiful


We asked our granddaughter if she wanted to be baptized and she said she did.  Does that count as our first convert baptism?  It was nice to be at this sacred event and Paige was so happy to become a member of the Church on her 8th birthday.  It's hard to say good-bye again to those you love so much, but it was a delightful day.  Cherie, Kari and all of the kids came with us back to the MTC which made us very happy.  The whole day was good (except the score of the BYU-Utah game) and we loved seeing Julie and Tom, Melissa and Jeff, Lauren, Mom and Dad and all of Cherie's family again.  

We finally met Sister Williams from Wales.  She and Sister Brown have been looking for us all week.   We will be able to meet the three other missionaries from Wales tomorrow.  This is the first time they have had so many from Wales at the MTC at the same time so they are taking a picture together tomorrow for the Liahona.  It will be fun if it gets published.  Sister Williams was so full of life, so happy to meet us and so warm and expressive.  That was extra nice.

It is so fun to see you two as missionaries, what a fun time in your life. And how great that you were able to make it to Paige's baptism before you leave, I can't wait to read more updates!
