As many of you know Cory was released last Sunday as Scoutmaster. Words cannot express the joy we felt when we found out he was going to be released. It is a HUGE calling! I would've never realized it if we didn't experience it firsthand. He has done it for almost 5 years and we joked that we would have to move in order for him to get released. He put in many hours and days to the scouting program. It was a sacrifice for our whole family, but it was also a huge blessing. We are excited for a new chapter in our lives. Cory was a great example of giving everything he could to his calling!
He was made a High Priest last Sunday and will be getting a new calling this Sunday. So both of our parents came to be here for that. It was a very special day!
So to celebrate the special occasion I made this: 
Homemade raspberry cheesecake.
Homemade raspberry cheesecake. It was sooooo good! I bought some springform pans a couple weeks ago and have been wanting to try them out. So I busted out the Taste of Home cookbook and found this recipe. I was a little nervous, but it turned out great. I probably read over the recipe 20 times to make sure I did everything right:)
Mataya and Grandma B hanging out. 
Mataya was so glad that Grandma and Grandpa Jones could come for the weekend.
Grandpa Blackwell can always make the girls smile! 
On Sunday after our naps, we took Grandma and Grandpa Jones up Farmington Canyon and up on top of the mountain to show them how cool it is. This is the view looking West at Antelope Island and part of the Great Salt Lake. 
The mandatory rock throwing taking place.
This one is a keeper. Parker and Spencer are holding their "machine guns" that Grandma and Grandpa Jones got them. Cory couldn't be prouder:) Mataya is wrapped up in Grandma's jacket because I forgot to bring a blanket and it was really cold and windy up on top of the mountain. And there I am with that wild hair and "just woke up" look. Lookin' good Jones family....lookin' good!
