St. Patrick's Day

17 March 2018

We had a lovely time in the Salt Lake Temple yesterday. Always great to be in the temple!

A few months ago, our son, John, sent this missionary name tag (below) to Bob as a gift. Our sons, Mike and John, both wore this tag at some point on their missions. Bob has now also worn the same one and labeled it for the dates of our mission.
         
- Elder Michael W. Crenshaw served in the Utah Salt Lake City South Mission, 2001 – 2003
-  Elder John D Crenshaw served in the Colorado Denver South Mission, 2002 – 2004
-  Elder Robert J Crenshaw serves in the Utah Salt Lake City Headquarters Mission, 2016 – 2018 (and he added a “+” sign and three dots to indicate our next mission.)

We heard some good news about our oldest son, Bob, the other day. Evidently our friend, Penny Oman, is singing his praises because he found some information on line (about water fasting) that has really helped her with the chemo treatments she’s been having. (My husband, Bob, and I happened to see that same info not long ago and it was fascinating.) It's great to hear that it has worked for Penny.

We’re going to miss a couple of big events in NC in the next few weeks. Our granddaughter, Claire, is turning eight next week and will be baptized in early April, and, our youngest grand, sweet baby Jack, is being blessed next weekend. Wish we could be there with everyone.

We look forward to being back in NC at the beginning of August.

That is really fun that Michael, Jon and Bob share a missionary name tag! I didn't realize that Bob Jr told Penny about the water fasting thing. It's amazing how well she has done on it! Hope Bob's eye heals well. I love that your new found cousins came over for dinner, and that you got to spend time with Bob and Phyllis. So jealous that you get to hang out with the Coopers! They are awesome! Say hello to them for me!
