Story

Tara, Cooper, and Lillian met up with Ondy at Thunder Junction Park. Ondy was late because her phone kept dying and she didn’t know how to get there without GPS. Cooper and Lillian stayed and played with Ondy’s family, while Tara joined Savannah, Madi, and the Parkers to do baptisms at the Red Cliffs Temple and the St. George Temple.

After baptisms, Tara and the girls went back to the park and met up with Ondy. They had a picnic lunch.
