Great to be Eight!




The anticipated day had finally arrived.  On October 11, 2008, Mitchell was confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Mitchell has been looking forward to this day for quite a while and is so proud to be the newest member of our ward.  I am grateful for the wonderful EXAMPLE he is to his little brother and sister.

Mitchell's grandma and grandpa Sampson flew in for this special occasion.  We had a wonderful weekend with them and so grateful they were able to come for this SPECIAL day!


We are so proud of Mitchell and the decisions he is making in his life.  He is a wonderful son, and we are so blessed to have him in our family.
