40. More Family Memories in Photos (2)

Image
The photo above is of McKay and Kim's wedding in 1987.  Kim's parents are on the left, and traveled here from Taiwan to be at the wedding.  Her father  passed away a few years ago.  Her mother isn't well at this time, and is in the hospital. Her parents were very polite, well educated and genteel people. This picture is of Wayne's mother, Gladys Tregenna Dayton, about age 18, before she was married.  Our daughter Tacy looks a lot like her. This above is of Wayne as Santa, and Elder Sam Watts on the left and Elder Jared Beckstead on the right, when on our mission in Connecticut in 1999/2000.  At that time we worried about Y2K -- or the coming of the year 2000, and if it would cause problems with computers, etc.  It didn't !   This is Jeremy, and his darling daughter Jessica.  Jessica is now 20, and a beautiful young lady.

I just found this on facebook, and watched and listened to this on youtube.  I think you'll enjoy it!  (You need to copy and paste the link below.) Hi! My name is Bryce Romney and I'm in a group from BYU called Vocal Point as part of the marketing committee. We were International Collegiate A Cappella champions in 2006 and we placed in the top 5 in season 3 of NBC's The Sing Off. We are all returned missionaries and active members of the church. We strive to do missionary work using our talents, and one of the ways we do that is by singing. This music video that we created is our way of spreading hope in Christ this Christmas season. I am writing in hopes that you will post this music video. It is a message of hope that comes through Christ even in the darkest of times. We know that the message and song are powerful and can help many people, just as creating this video has helped us. Thanks so much for your support! We hope this song can bless the lives of many people....
