Sunday.

The circle surrounding Chad after they gave him his Priesthood.

He's hugging Grandpa in the back.

What a good looking bunch of men!

L-R: Ian (Kendra's husband), Uncle Rick, cousin Jon, Uncle Jeff (in the back), Uncle Donny, D, Chad, Grandpa, cousin Rob, cousin Tyler, Uncle Bob, cousin Cody and Uncle Duane. (Uncle Curtis missing - miss you Curtis! He's the Bishop in his ward, so they weren't able to come out until the next day.)

Grandpa giving Austin his "Eagle" award.

Last Sunday found us at Grandma and Grandpa's church for their services. They somehow seemed to think that we could sing, so they put us on the program as The Huckvale Family Singers (there were 41 of us there - we filled up their WHOLE choir section!), and we sang the "Sisters of Zion/Armies of Helaman" medley that is done at many EFY's (Especially for Youth). Oh, and did you know that one of Derrick's cousins' husbands put together that special arrangement? Very cool! We sang... and mind you, we are NOT the Osmonds... no where near... but we did a pretty good job... and Grandma was crying, so all is good!

That night we had our first family council. We all met on the sport court, and discussed the rules and regulations for Huck Camp. We then ordained Chad a Deacon, which was really cool. All the men that were able to were up there in his circle and D gave him a special blessing. It was really neat to see the Power of the Priesthood that we hold in our family. What an awesome experience to have so many of our men up there!


We were also able to present Austin with a special carved Eagle that grandma and grandpa had made for him because he earned his Eagle Scout award.
