SOFTBALL!

Corey and Brad are playing in a softball league. They are on the Gunther's Team! They are having so much fun playing and it is so much fun to watch! Of course we Grace girl's get a little rowdy in the stands, but we learned that from our dad!
Corey has been playing catcher. Its not his first pick, but he is enjoying it. Their record is 4 wins with 2 losses in the Preseason!
Jana volunteered to watch a couple of little boys at the game and with her twins and Justice and Justice's cousin Banner, it was quite funny to watch. She finally got them to sit on the lawn by giving them a treat, but they only stayed there for about 1 minute.
Finally toward the end of the second game, Aunt Bethanie got Justice and Banner to sit next to her and watch the game! We are so excited to watch more games!

What an AWESOME day!

Corey did it! He is now an Elder! I am so proud of him. He had a lot of people there to support him! Thank you to our families for all of your support! His Grandpa, Bryant Riddle ordained him and the men that were there to help were, our families, Bob Grace, Brad Page, Jared Stafford, Ralph Cook, Denver Riddle, his good friend Chad Hardinger, Bishop Dan Kelson, the Elders Quorum presidency, Dan Ivie, Wade Kelson. Thank you all for being such great examples to Corey and myself. We love an appreciate all of you! The Bishop had both Corey and I stand up and share how we felt. The Spirit was so strong. Our nieces Eryn and Kaitlyn had to giggle that everyone there was crying and said that Aunt Jo was bawling! lol After the ordination was over we all went over to Corey's mom's house and ate lunch! It was an AWESOME day!

Corey is becoming an Elder!


We are so excited for this Sunday! Corey is being ordained an Elder! I am so proud of him! He is such an amazing man! His Grandpa is ordaining him and he couldn't be any happier about that! He made a comment to me that he is going to be surrounded by some really neat men! I am so excited about having this higher Preisthood in our home and it means we are one step closer to the Temple! Life is GOOD!
