On the road again...

... we'll be taking off tomorrow.

See all y'all real soon.

Happy Father's Day

This goes out to all of us... Sean, Jared, Bryan and Ken (almost there).

Congrats on Fatherhood.

... and a big hug to Dad, you've been a great father for over 30 years!

This afternoon, as I was flipping through my Missionary scrapbook that Mom put together for me, I found the first letter that I wrote home, the one that I wrote to you. It's been almost 13 years since I wrote/read it, so I pulled it out and read it.

In case you don't remember it, It old you a bit about my life at the MTC and shared my first experience of giving a blessing. The funny thing about rereading that letter, I don't really remember it, but the principle of that moment has stayed with me for long after that.

Want to quote a part of the letter for you:

"I thank you: for your teachings; for your strict but gentle hand; and your priesthood power and many other things.

"I'm proud to be here. Proud to serve, and proud to have you as my father. I love you."

Elder M. Clayton (Sept 9, 1993)

Sorry I didn't send a card, but we are going to see Superman Returns that first weekend that I'm in UT (it opens 6/30).

Have a great day!

Aaron's Baptism

We plan on having Aaron's baptism on Saturday morning, July 29th at 10:00 AM at one of the Stake Centers in Roy, UT.

We'll let you know details before they happen.

So mark the date...

... it's the day before Spencer's "talk in church that coincides with him coming home from his mission" so Grandma Clayton and Donna will be there.

#3!

Yep, that's right folks. We have spawned again. I still can't imagine myself with 3 children! Aren't you supposed to be a grown-up for that? I'm still 18, right? Well, I always said I didn't want to be having kids after 30, and I'll be 30 in August, so I guess I jinxed that one. Feel free to send gifts.

Clara's Blessing

Finally!
