Meeting Elder Russell M. Nelson

A couple of weekends ago, Rebecca's husband, Jeremiah, was called as the new Stake President of the Liberty, MO Stake. It was an incredible weekend, especially for her and Jeremiah. We attended the meeting where he was set apart by Elder Russell M. Nelson, who is one of Twelve Apostles called to witness of Christ in our time. Quiet, humble, kind, inspired...it was really a blessing to be near him. The boys and I met him. Ben and his cousin JJ bolted to the front of the line to shake hands. We weren't able to take pictures of that experience, but I did get these cute pictures of the boys while we waited outside the room where Jeremiah would be set apart. Sam was using his walker, and Ben was riding on the back. Amazingly, Sam kept walking, which was not easy with the extra 40+ pounds he was carrying. He was smiling the whole way and grunting as he pulled.
