John with three-year-old Mordecai. Mordecai is a little chatter box who loves cars, trains, and balls. We enjoyed playing with them on the green belt. The weather was great for flying a kite. 
Emily's hair is now very long. She reads well with expression and is loves life and family! 
Ruby smiles at times and is a snuggly, sweet baby! 
Karen Bainbridge created this exquiste heritage blessing (wedding dress according to Emily) ensemble for Ruby. It is made of batiste (100% fine, soft cotton), beaded smocking on the dress and bonnett, large and tiny tucks, embroidery, inserted lace, rosettes, etc. It is to be cherished for generations.

Desi holding Ruby in their family room with the new fireplace and the TV. The whole house is beautifully decorated. They are truly making it their own as they update and add new features.

Mike and Desi before the meeting in which Michael blessed Ruby with the assistance of both grandfathers and friends in the ward. It was a delight to be in the Gospel Doctrine class that Mike taught and to see his teaching expertise and feel his testimony.

John with a sleepy Ruby after her big day! It was a precious time to play and to love our grandchildren in their own home and to talk face-to-face with those we love so much. Mike and Desi have created a wonderful home. We were so blessed to be able to feel of the loving spirit there.
