Kanyon's 12th Birthday

 Wow!  We have a 12 year old!  September was a great month for Kanyon.  He turned 12, was ordained to be a Deacon, received the Aaronic Priesthood, attended the Brigham City Temple Dedication and went to the temple to do baptisms for the dead for the first time. We went to the Bountiful temple fat 6 am for his first time.  Lana went and did initiatory work and Kanyon and I went to do baptisms and confirmations.  It was soooo busy.  We got there about 10 after 6 in the morning and there were already 30 youth in the baptistry.  We still got done and had to wait for Lana for over 40 minutes.  It was amazing to see the parking lot, both the upper and lower lots, full.   He wanted to go to "Get Air", a trampoline park in Roy, with his friends for his birthday.  I caved in to peer pressure, yep, I let 12 year olds get to me.  I performed double front flips, back fulls, gainer fulls and front fulls into the foam pits.  It was fun to rub it in with those little wipper snappers.  Kanyon and his friends had a blast.
 Kanyon is really into all things Greek, so Lana made him a cake that had Happy Birthday in Greek.  She is a really nice mom.
 He received a bunch of fun things from his friends.  Cards with money, always a big hit with Kanyon, he loves money, candy and lots of toys.
 They loved the cupcakes, cake and ice cream.  Lana is an awesome cook.
Kanyon and his friends follow an online comedian.  One of the episodes they did was of a complaint company that told people to rub bacon on all the things that are broken or having problems.  So the "Rub some bacon on it" shirt was a huge hit.
 Yay!  We love basketball.


 We had all the family over that evening.  Kanyon was really spoiled.  It's really nice to have family support us and our family.



Kanyon and his Greek cake.  He loved it.  Oh, and by the way, if something's wrong, rub some bacon on it!
