Family Reunion

A few weeks ago we had a " Pack Family Reunion "

It is a rare and tremendous blessing to have all of the siblings, cousins, and grandparents come together at once.

When telling a friend about this gathering it was made known to me that having a family that each person gets along and wants to spend time together is not common.

We celebrate our faith in Jesus Christ when we get together first and foremost and so I am sure that is one reason we all get along.

We all enjoy playing games, hearing stories from each others lives, and talking about similar interests like working out, playing guitar, playing magic games for some, and talking superheroes for the little boys and Uncle Allen .



What a great chance we have to live in a time when we can travel quickly by car or plane, and that our lives are convenient so we can play pirate games by the pool instead of bake our bread and plow the field all day.

What a miracle that we live in a time that the sealing power is on the earth and families can be united after death, forever.

I am grateful for more than a family that gets along, but for a family that prays together, has strong bonds of faith, and devotion to the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Truly, Grandma and Grandpa Pack are receiving the blessings of Abrahams promise and that can be seen as you see them with their Grandchildren.
