Jordan's Farewell

Nikki and Noah were a great help at Jordan's farewell lunch. Nikki made fabulous dip and Noah helped build sandwiches. Nikki has been a great influence on Jordan. Nikki thanks for your organizational skills. We couldn't have done the party nearly as well without you.
Jordan has been blessed with great sisters. Heidi is a good friend.
Grandpa Harris - You are a member of the greatest generation. Your life is an example we can all follow. Thanks for your deep pockets.



Today Jordan spoke in Church before leaving for his mission. He worked hard on his talk and even went over to the church and practised it at the podium in the chapel. He did a great job. We had so many friends and family come. We served over 60 people lunch. It is a time of rejoicing to send a son into the mission field. We pray that he will serve well and be served by learning and growing himself. We feel such gratitude to the Lord for protecting Jordan and allowing us to have associated with him. We love you Jordan.

Saturday with Audrey and Alex

Last Saturday (January 12th 2008) Josie painted her bedroom so Jeff brought Audrey and Alex to Logan to spend the day with Grandma Owens. They had a great time playing at the mall.
Audrey and Alex ate three orders of Toll House cookies and root beer.


Audrey had her nails painted yellow.
That night we watched Rattatoulli while Jeff and Lenny went to the Aggie game.

Jordan's endowment


On Saturday January 19th 2008 Jordan went to the Logan temple and took out his enowment. It was a joyeous occasion. Jordan looked very handsome in his white clothes. It was quite a contrast with his dark skin. He seemed very happy and filled with light. David and Kelly and their daughters Kory and Krista came up from Kaysville. David and Kelly were the witness couple. LaRue came from Centerville. She observed that Mom (grandma Harris) was in attendance. Jeff and Josie came from North Salt Lake. We so appreciate everyones support. Josies great uncle is in the temple presidency. Another missionary going to Independence Missouri was there for his endowment. After the session we had a lasagna dinner at our home. John and Ilene Barrus dropped by to visit because they cannot come to Jordan's farewell next week
