A Weekend of Special "Firsts"

 This past weekend was a pretty special one for these boys!
Dallin and Gavin were able to take their cousin Xaxton to the temple for the very first time!
Xaxton will turn 12 this year and so he was ordained a deacon and went to the temple and got to do baptisms there. He loved it. :)
 What made this even more special was the fact that Gavin was recently ordained a teacher, and Dallin was also recently ordained a priest, and so Dallin got to perform the baptisms for these boys! It was a super special experience for all of them!
Dallin also had some friends there too...Hallie, Dallin, Dallin, and Jordyn.
Yep! These 2 friends are both named Dallin, they are both Student Class Officers at Riverton High, and they both wore the same exact outfit to the temple without even planning it! :)
 Afterwards, we took everyone out to dinner at Freddy's and had a fun time together.
 Madyson also came with us since she spent the weekend with us too...
 ...and Kesslyn was even given a FREE custard with sprinkles and gummi worms on top JUST for being so CUTE!!! (And because the man working there REALLY wanted to get a smile out of her!) I'm tellin' ya...this girl is TOUGH!!!
 And to top off our already amazing weekend, Dallin together with his amazing dad was able to bless the sacrament on Sunday at church for the very first time. Clint went first and blessed the bread, and then Dallin blessed the water. They both did such a beautiful job on making the prayer sacred and sincere... the spirit was so strong and I felt so much love and gratitude swell up inside of me. These are such good boys and I am so so lucky to have them all in my life! (Dallin even went again to the temple tonight for young mens and he said, "Mom, I just love going to the temple." 
Me too buddy...me too. :)
