Groundhog Day

Logan Hayden Olson
Today Logan became an official member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. His Daddy Baptized him and confirmed him. Several of our family came for the baptism.
Logan had a large circle of priesthood holders around him. We were grateful to all the family who attended his baptism. It was a special day for Logan.

and, of course, Logan.
Kenzie was ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood as a Deacon. We were able to ordain him following Logans Confirmation. Kenzie recieved a new suit from Grandma Alexander for his birthday. That is what he wanted.

We had a lunch at our home afterwards and listened to President Gordon B. Hinkley's funeral. Around 12:30 we left to go to a Piano Festival which Brady and Kenzie were playing in. Mom and Dad Olson went with the boys and I to the recital hall. Mom and Dad Alexander and Stephen and Michael met us there. Brady, Kenzie, Stephen, and Michael all performed their music in front of three judges. All recieved "superiors"! They have worked real hard to learn and play their pieces perfect.
