Our Saturday- A Race, a Game, and a Baptism

 A beautiful day for a run!  Camille completed the Ogden half marathon for the 4th consecutive year with a time of 1:58.  She plans to train for the Top of Utah full marathon this September.  Go, Camille!

I probably should have been doing yard work, but instead I traveled to Sandy to watch Kevin's intense soccer game.  Beautiful weather, infuriating refs, and no regrets.  How often do you get to see your 14-year-old with this expression on his face?

 Then, Saturday night, our friend, Ule's baptism.  It was a very special occasion.  He's a great young man and the third of Scott's friends to be baptized in the last couple months.  Pablo and Ule he is especially close to.

The original missionary discussion group that's been together through many, many discussions (with Bro. Williams -seminary teacher)

Support from the soccer team

Support from friends -many come to the missionary discussions

The elders with Pablo, Ule, and Uriel -the three Ogden High baptisms in April and May 2011 -Pablo's showing off his CTR ring :)  The elder on the right came into the mission at the beginning of April.  Quite a way to start!

 Matt and Kevin are good friends with Ule.  Matt loves to practice soccer with him in the sports court and he's sad that Ule's going to his own ward now and not coming to church with us anymore.

More soccer team pics

 Just a note -if it seems like Pablo's being a little bit of a goof in these pictures -he was absolutely on cloud 9.  He and Ule have been best friends since they were little. Pablo has been so excited about the church since he was baptized, but he doesn't have any family support.  This is kind of a dream come true for him.  Ule's sweet family was at the baptism and his father is reading the Book of Mormon in Spanish and talking to the missionaries.  I took a picture of his whole family but I'm so sad it didn't turn out.  In addition to his brother and sister in the picture he has a little sister (maybe 5) and his older sister has a daughter who looks like his younger sister's twin (dressed alike and everything -so cute) and his mother and father.  I had my camera on the settings from the soccer game and the picture was almost pitch black.  Dang.

 A very nice night and a good ending to a busy, although not very productive day.
