April has been full of wonderful family time. We loved having Julia and baby Dallin come to visit us for my birthday and General Conference. We enjoyed being in the temple together with Vivi, while Grandpa watched Dallin outside.
Seth, Tiffany, and boys joined us for Conference weekend, and Austin came on Saturday. Clark went to his first Priesthood meeting with Grandpa. The Vance’s joined us on Sunday for dinner and to watch the last session together. We were inspired by the uplifting, timely messages of counsel from our leaders, and marvel at the strength and vitality of our dear Prophet, Pres. Nelson. Sunday afternoon, we gathered at Vivi’s ward building, along with the Caudle family for Jackson to ordain Clark a Deacon in the Aaronic Priesthood. What a sweet, tender experience to see our oldest grandson perform this important ordination. He gave Clark a beautiful blessing, and Addison was in the circle, too.

After our meetings on Easter Sunday, we drove to Eugene to be with Seth’s family, the Vance’s, and Vivi for a lovely Easter meal together. The grandchildren had fun searching for Easter eggs. We attended the “Lamb of God” performance put on by the “Emerald Valley Singers.” Three stakes combine to put on this performance each year. It was incredible. Tiffany sang beautifully in her part as Martha.
