Prioritized Daily Task

11:00 AM - the twins, London and Finley McEwin's baptism at the church at 1050 N 300 W, Mapleton, UT

Debbie was up earlier than me, showered, and got ready.  We had prayer and she cooked breakfast.  I got two text, one from Alex and another from Michael.  Dalin and Alyssa, Autumn's younger brother and his wife, twins are being baptized this morning in Mapleton.  Randy Hobbs picked Braddock, his grandson, up at 7:30 AM and took him to meet his team and coach.  Debbie took some of the other children and went to his game at 9 AM.  I showered, shaved, got dressed, and drove to our home in Lehi.  I got mine and Debbie's temple clothes, picked up some more clothes for next week, and went to London and Finley's baptism at their ward building in Mapleton, south of Provo, Utah.  I had three choices today, climb Mt. Timpanogos with Jon and his son Tyler, married to Samantha Gourley, and other family members and friends carrying Emlie Traveller who was paralyzed from the neck down when she was 16 years old when a Razor wrecked on top of her; the second choice was to attend Braddock's football game; and the third was to attend Dalin McEwen's twins baptism.  I think today is their 8th birthday.  Dalin is Autumn McAlpin's brother.  After the baptism, a group picture was taken.  Terry,  and Jill McEwen, and Lora Davis were there as well as Alyssa's parents, her grandmother, and great aunt.  I drove the Tesla back home and charge it.  Debbie and Jody got some more packages from Amazon and I ate lunch.  I sent Debbie some pictures I took.  When Braddock's football game ended she came by the house.  I took some clean clothes and drove over the Pat and Anndalyn's.  All the children had their friends over or were with their friends.  Debbie fixed dinner for those who were hungry.  We had prayer with all the children except Ellie who was already in bed.  Debbie talked to Pat and Anndalyn in Hawaii earlier.  We watched movies today and Beth called.  Maggie is giving a talk tomorrow and wanted stories about priesthood blessings and miracles in our family. Debbie and I had prayer before going to bed.
