Today May 25th 2008 Ashlyn Shelline Wineberg was blessed in the Plano 6th Ward. I was so thankful to be able to give this blessing to her. How funny is it that she decided to blow a load in her pants during the blessing. HAHA well anything less would be uncivilized. We were blessed to have Rich, and Clyde join in the circle of the Preisthood. Adam was there but unable to take part but the blessing of having his spirit there was just as good as if he could have been in their too.
It was just the beginning of such a wonderful day. Today also was Jeffrey Wineberg Jr baptism. He turned 8 back in February but he put his desires aside to hold off on the baptism until Ashlyn was born so we could do both ordinances at the same time. It was amazing. He was so excited and the spirit was so strong there. We surely missed Sonia, she was sick and couldn't make it, Taylor and Candra couldn't make it either. They were all in our hearts and prayers though.
Jeffrey was so overly excited about his baptism he was pretty much doing Adams talk on baptism for him, though Adam did a great job anyway. Sonia was going to do the talk but ended up sick. It was sure nice to see all the family turn out to this.
I want to say thank you to Clyde and Stephanie, Rich and Michelle, Adam (Sonia in spirit, she made the trip from Houston)Heather, Dad and Kim,(Taylor & Candra in spirit) and ALL OF THE NIECES AND NEPHEWS!!!! for making it such a special time for our family today.
After the baptism we had those who cold make it, over for food and drinks. Crazy how small a 1500 sqft apt feels with 13adults and 16 nieces and nephews.. can I just say WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!..
This was such a great end to such a special day and I can honestly say that I love them all.
God Speed EVERYONE!!!!!!!

I'm glad to hear that everything went well!!! :) We're sorry we couldn't make it.
Please tell Jeffrey I am sooo bummed that I missed out on his baptism and we can't forget Ashlyn's blessing. I really feel badly! I hate illness, it's ruining my life this year! Anyway, I'm glad to hear everything went well. Tell Jeffrey that I will have something special for him the next time I see him, since I totally suck as an aunt right now! So so sooo, sorry!!!!
Hey sonia, we appreciate you making the trip from Houston. We are glad that you did your best to make it and know that we are praying for you to get better soon.
Hey you forgot Mom being there.:)
It stunk that your bishop wanted temple recommends in hand and Adam didn't know this before hand.
Sorry Heather I did leave mom out. It was an accident. Thanks mom for being there and for Ashlyn baby blessing outfit.
On the issue with temple recommends, the church has always required those who are not in the home ward to provide recommends or a letter from their bishop. If neither is possible then the bishop can talk to the visiting priesthoods bishop by phone as well. My bishop was just following the guidelines of the church.
I know that Adam understands this and he was aware of the blessing way in advance. I am sure that he wishes he could have been involved with the priesthood ordinances. I sure wish he would have been able to because he is a big part of the family. I am just grateful that he made the trip because of the special time it was. I hope you understand
Out of 5 baptism never a problem about temple recommends. You made it sound like Adam wasn't worthy sometimes you should watch how you say things.
Heather. When you get a degree in Psychology and can diagnose my blog then feel free to chime in. I have never said or assumed that Adam was not worthy of holding a temple recommend. I just said that he new in advance that one was necessary.
Also my bishop follows the rules of the church. If your bishop doesn't require a recommend, letter or phone call from prior bishop then he is not doing as directed from the Presidency of the church. I guess here in Plano they just want to make sure everyone is honest.
If you are so worried about Adam why dont you call him and ask him why he didn't have his recommend, or have his bishop call or a letter before hand. Its not my position to question why he didn't have one, its just my position to make sure that what my bishop asked for is relayed to everyone. Also Tracy did post on the family website our bishop phone number so he can be reached by those who didn't have their recommend.
I think you are the one who is making a huge deal out of this. I would check your self before you comment on what you think I am implying. If you really want to know why Adam couldn't stand in your mother seems to know why he didn't have his recommend and was not able stand in.
Have a great week.
Ok first off your phone call with Adam had nothing to do with mom she knew nothing about what Adam knows I did. Plus I have taken multiple classes in psychology and you don't have to have a degree to perceive things. Perception is everything. What you write is out there for everyone to perceive so if you don't want people to know what you are than change the way you talk. I am however not the one who started negative blogging on others site. You started this with the nasty comments you put on my blog.Oh, by the way I know my brother and I know what the situation you seem to think there is. There is no situation with Adam and not having his recommend with him. You are reading to much into it.
Heather.. I am lost for words.. I dont get your twisted illogical way of thinking. I would rather you not comment on my blogs since you so graciously blocked me from yours.
Have a superb week!
