January in Review

 
A lot has happened in just one month! It was a month ago today that sweet Grandpa Taylor passed away. We were able to say our final goodbyes at his funeral on January 9. It was a wonderful funeral service, and a fitting tribute to Grandpa's extraordinary life. He will be missed, but we all look forward to the day when we can see him again.


Three-and-a-half weeks after Grandpa Taylor's passing, and the day after Grandma Taylor's birthday, Sarah and Joel welcomed a new little guy, Sawyer, into the world. I love this picture of Sawyer and his big brother Leo--look at Leo's eyelashes!! It's neat to think that Sawyer got to spend some time with Grandpa T. before his birth. I bet Grandpa told him all about the wonderful family he was going to join. We're so happy that Sawyer made it here safely and that he and Sarah are both doing well!

 
Also in January, we got to celebrate Dad's birthday! Here is the Birthday Grandpa with four of his favorite girls.

 
One of the highlights of January for me was the sleepover extravaganza with the Barretts! We had a lot of fun watching movies and hanging out with Mom and Dad.

 
Also this past month, I was able to begin presenting a fun program about Joseph Smith's candidacy for President of the United States. I've only presented the program a couple of times, but it seems to be really popular. Everyone's favorite part is seeing this original campaign pamphlet from 1844 that we have on loan from the Church Archives. I love my job!
 
 
 
Today Mom and I had a fun adventure at Macey's Super Bowl tailgate party. It was so much fun! February has gotten off to a good start!

Sounds like an eventful month. Wish I could go see your presentation. Sounds really interesting. How is Greg liking his job?
