Priesthood

My Ryan received the Melchizedek Priesthood today! His amazing daddy ordained him. I was homesick for my parents, who are serving a mission right now, as the men all formed a circle around my oldest. My dad would have been there, but instead he is setting the ultimate example for my Ryan in putting the Lord first as he and my mom put him first in their lives. 

Tears filled my eyes as my sweet Matt ordained my Ryan with priesthood power from on high. Then later when we got home I had the most amazing experience I have ever had as my Ryan placed his hands on my head along with my Matt and Ryan gave me a priesthood blessing. Oh how I love having this gospel truth in my life. My sweet boy listening to the prompting a of the spirit. AMAZING!!!

Here he is with his birthday gift, just a little of the long list of things he needs for his mission. 

Grandpa Christensen is also sick, so after my blessing Matt and Ryan headed over to Ephraim to give him a blessing. Such a special day.
