A Spiritual Weekend

A couple of weekends ago Cam's cousin Brandon was baptized. This baptism was especially exciting because Brandon is 14 years old. Some of Brandon's family are members, but inactive and since he started living with his wrestling coach in Springville, he has gained his own testimony and really has been converted and we are so excited for him. Cam is really close to Brandon and calls him his little brother. They share the love of wrestling and have a lot of fun wrestling whenever they get together. Cam has been someone that Brandon has talked to about the church and has been a great example to Brandon and that is why Brandon asked him to Confirm him. Cam was really flattered that he would ask and very excited to be able to have the opportunity. On saturday Cam went down to the baptism with his parents and sister (I wasn't able to go) and he said it was one of the most spiritual baptisms he had been to. Then on Sunday morning we drove down for the confirmation. The confirmation was beautiful and I really enjoyed getting to be there for Brandon as well as being there to hear Cam confirm him. It made me so grateful to have the priesthood in my home and made me excited for when we get to have the same experience with our own kids. I'll take a chance to say thank you to Cam for honoring his priesthood and for being such a great leader in our home. He is such a great example to me and helps me to want to be better all the time. After dinner with the family we quickly drove back to Bountiful for my brother to be ordained an Elder which was also very exciting. I am impressed by the good choices he is making and am excited for him and the experiences he will have by holding that Priesthood. It was a very spiritual weekend and we enjoyed every minute of it!
