Jordan's 18th Birthday

Gilbert Arizona Temple

Over 12,000 youth participated in a wonderful, inspiring celebration of this new temple.  Jordan, Jonathan and Marie are somewhere in this mass of kids!!

Mission Call...going to Ghana!!

On the way to Ghana!!

 

 

  

Jordan was asked to be one of the Tour Guides for the open house of the new MTC in Ghana. 

The story behind this wood carving was that the Mission President had asked several local artists to do a mural of Lehi's Dream and the Tree of Life.

 The one they chose was done by a non-member who studied the scripture and carved this beautiful piece!

 

 

This stunning painting of the Savior and the African kids hangs only in the Ghana MTC.

Welcome home gift from Jeremy's family!

Kente ties from Ghana for all the brothers!

Judie made this awesome screensaver for my computer to welcome me home!

Rowena made this awesome welcome home sign for me.

*********************************************************************************************

Some treasures from Ghana:

 

 

 

Sister Barney from our ward made the banners for missionaries when she was serving in Ghana with her husband.

 

*********************************************************************************************

Joshua worked for days on my car, an Infiniti that had to have an engine change.  After paying another mechanic to fix it, Joshua had to take over.  He got it working enough for me to get to BYU, but it never was very good.  We replaced almost everything!!

Text from Jordan to Mom...

A nice lady from Jordan's work made this for his birthday. He worked at the college in Gilbert before leaving for BYU.

Jordan took a Phlebotomy class so he could get a part-time job in Utah drawing blood.  For "friends and family" day Jonathan, Jessie and Nathaniel volunteered to let him practice on them!  That's real love!!

I gave Jeanie's family this metal temple puzzle to assemble.  Turns out it was way, way tinier than it looked and almost impossible to put together!  Jordan helped finish it and sent me this picture-he was really proud of it.

Jordan's Eagle Court of Honor

Wonderful bunch of brothers in the Eagles' Nest!!

*********************************************************************************************

 

One of Jordan's very seldom cooking attempts...with an ulterior motive!  If you look close,

starting at the bottom-it spells "license". He wanted to get his license before his Eagle...silly boy!

 

Yep, he did it! (Also finished his Eagle!)

This is a photo of Jordan the day the got home from the hospital after burning his leg very seriously. 

Jordan fell over a crockpot of chili in the van on the way to a picnic.  He had to be airlifted to the hospital and

spent several days in the burn unit...a terrible experience.  The blanket is a gift from grams Gregory. 

The train was also a gift from well-wishers.

*******************************************************************************************

   

When Jordan was born, Jeremy, Joshua and Jason were serving missions. 

I placed a Book of Mormon beside Jordan to show the boys just how tiny he was!

 

Jordan's blessing day.  This little blessing outfit had a pale blue collar and edge on the sleeves. 

It is a knit outfit.  It has pale blue snaps on the front.  There is no hat with this blessing outfit. 

The blanket was crocheted by Jordan's maternal grandmother, Georgia Mae Klam Gregory.
