What a weekend! Taylor's baptism was great - we appreciate those who participated and gave talks or said prayers...it was so nice to have so much family present. It made Taylor feel really special and we thank you all for coming - and for joining us for lunch after. I think he had a really special day. The younger two are so excited for their baptisms now - of course, I don't know if that's because of the "sacred ordinance" aspect or the "gifts and money" aspect. Either way, it's good with me.

My brother and sisters are on their way home - it was a great weekend with them. Lots of laughing and remembering - can't wait to see them again. We introduced Ray Jr. to the 360 and I almost felt bad telling him it was time to go to the airport - he was really enjoying it. I mean REALLY enjoying it.

I took Tay to the ENT this morning to solve his hearing problem. As it turns out, he had something in his ear. I tell you - there's no greater feeling than watching a man that has gone to school for 14 years pull a popcorn kernel out of your son's ear. I was so embarrassed. Then I realized that he probably has quite a collection of things that have ended up in ears. Anyway - we still need to follow up on his right ear - but I think we have it under control. Of course, Tay has no idea how a popcorn kernel got into his ear. Imagine that.

Back to our routine. We are excited to spend some time with Buffy while she is here this week. Maybe a lady lunch? Anyone interested? Isaac and Taylor have Opening Day this weekend. I think there are ceremonies on Friday night and I know Isaac has a game on Saturday morning at some unearthly hour - I think at 9am. I will get details to those interested in coming.

Keep the blogs coming and take care!
