Eye Appointments

The kids had their annual check-ups for their eyes today.  Hannah and Jacob both had significant changes and will get new lenses.  Hannah is also due for new frames.  Ellie's eyes are still good, but it looks like she may be changing soon.  Hannah and Jacob had their eyes dialated, which they didn't like.

All 4 of these monkeys in the little eye exam room was a little crazy, but our new eye doctor, Dr. Jackman, is a family friend and has 4 monkey's of his own.  He was very patient and was getting a kick out of Ellie being an owl with her big eyes and hooting sounds.

Star Wars VII

I still hadn't seen the new Star Wars movie and Brent was anxious for me to go so that he could talk about it.  He was going to send me alone, but I decided to take Hannah and Jacob along with me.  We had dinner at San Miguel's first and then headed to the movie.  It was a little intense for them both at times, but they enjoyed it.  It was a fun date night with my oldest 2 kiddos!

Jacob's Baptism Day

Today was Jacob's baptism day!  He was baptised and confirmed by his dad, Brent W Luke. There was a sweet spirit there as we watched Jacob make this special covenant and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.  We are so proud of him for making this big decision to be baptised as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. 

As gifts today, Jacob received a family history book from Grandma Luke (and added on by Grandma Powell), a CTR towel from Grandma Powell, scriptures from Mom & Dad, and a scripture bag from Aunt Lisa.

We were joined by Grandpa & Grandma Luke, Grandpa & Grandma Powell, Matt, Lisa & Lexi Dejong, the Bratt, Mahan & Crawford families, and Eric, Rose & Aaron Mather.  After the program we went to Golden Corrall for lunch.
