Reunions are Great!

All six of Grace Bjarnason's children together. It has been 10 years since this has happened. Let's not wait so long again!!! From left to right, age order... John and Rosemary, Ron and Stephanie, Bonnie and Mike, Leon and Kathy, Jared and Barbara, and Karen and Dwain.

A trip to the Fresno Temple to do sealings. Thanks to Stephanie for getting all the work together.

We were blessed to have 5 days with family from all over the states come to Cailfornia for dinners,beach, family skits and talents, temple sealings and testimony meeting. What a great legacy Grandmother Bjarnason left for all of us. A quote from President Monson in this month's Liahona says it all..."Our gratitude grows for the privilege of being part of something we can count on--home and family and the loyalty of loved ones. We come to know what it means to be bound together by duty, by respect, by belonging. We learn that nothing can fully take the place of the blessed relationship of family life.
