Ethan's 12th B-Day

Today at 1:27 PM Ethan turned twelve. (He pulled out his scrapbook to confirm the time.) It is a landmark birthday. He was sustained in sacrament meeting and ordained to the office of Deacon in the Aaronic priesthood after church. It was his first day to meet with the Deacon's Quorum. Now all the men in our family go to priesthood meeting together. The girls called just as I was decorating his icecream cake. It was 3:00 PM here and 1:00 AM (tomorrow) there.
We continued the family tradition we started Jecia's freshman year of college by singing "Happy Birthday" with the absentee members on the phone. It is so fun to connect with our girls on the other side of the world. I love modern technology!

Is that frost out on the street, or just regular dirt?
