Grandpa and I arrived Thursday morning (Thanksgiving) in Utah. Steve picked us up and took us home for Thanksgiving dinner with his family and Lorene's parents. We had 6 pies for eleven people! Yum!
Friday we went out for breakfast and drove to Clearfield Utah to see Daron & Carissa's home and family. This was the first time we'd seen Daron since he came home from the war. It was a treat. He presented us with a beautiful plaque and an actual American Flag that was flown in Afghanistan.
The plaque reads:
The United States of America and the Department of the Army on behalf of SSG Darom J. Hill, presents this flag of the United States of America to:
Mr & Mrs Dick and June Elder
For your love and support of your Grandson during his service in Afghanistan
Then we went bowling with their family. We had so much fun!
We then drove back to Steve's for Thanksgiving leftovers.
Saturday was a big day for Colby. He was baptized a member of our church. Both Grandpas and several uncles stood in the circle to confirm him a member.
Then we attended an open house for Colby at their home. Most of the family was there. (Around 40-44 people! What a hostess Lorene is!)
We had a wonderful weekend with family.
