Special Moments

You know the saying: a picture is worth a thousand words.

better Late than Never

William flew into Dulles on Tuesday for a short Thanksgiving visit. Cynthia took the time to ride out and get a hug before he left for Richmond and family. Nancy flew in on Monday and got a rental car to take us to Richmond.

Naturally, she and William could not take a serious picture for me!

Phillip's Baptism

On Saturday, September 12, 2009, Phillip Matthew Hokirk, was baptized by his step-father, (dad) William Robert Strange. On Sunday, the 13th, he was confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and given a blessing by his uncle Adam Stubits (Cynthia's husband). What a wonderful day and what a thrill for this mom to see - not only Phillip, but William! My heart is very full of thanks to my Heavenly Father.

Random pictures

Down time before getting ready for Church on Sunday. I always love being with William, Elisa and the children; I just missed Sara this time.

Washington Temple

Can you believe they have begun to hang the Christmas lights?

I guess it takes a while to put up as many as they do.
