Special Times

We had such a special week. Michele and Dale were able to come and spend some time with us. We were all excited and the kids were SUPER excited to be able to see Grandma and Grandpa Coates. The weather was crazy here in Texas the day they were flying in and they ended up with their flight delayed for a few hours in Denver. That is never fun but they finally made it. We had such fun hanging out, visiting, and playing games.

The main reason they flew down was so that Dale could ordain Courtney a high priest. We feel so blessed that they were able to come with such short notice to participate in this special event.
Dale was able to get Courtney ordained to the office of a high priest and then President Krogue set Courtney apart as a member of the high council. I feel so blessed to have the priesthood in our home to bless our family. Oh, how I love my husband and the man he is.
Now we begin a new adventure. Me trying to get the kids to church on time when Courtney is gone traveling and speaking in other wards. Oh, and trying to keep them somewhat reverent during Sacrament meeting. Wish me luck.

Visitors are like the ultimate bribery for kids right?
You get to say...
"If you dont help clean up, grandma and grandpa arent coming!"

I LOVE visitors for a million reasons but that reason is #1. :)
