You are all invited to attend Miriam's baptize on Saturday, November 1st, at 12:00 noon in the church building across the street from our house. Following her baptism and confirmation, we plan to bless Joshua.
We don't have any definitive lunch plans yet, but are leaning toward going to a Golden Corral or something afterward for anyone that wants to come.
Welcome to the David & Susan Benge family blog. This blog exists to share family news, whether it is interesting or not.

Chess Wizards
Well, it never ceases to amaze me as I watch how childrens' brains work. They are completely motivated on their own to do things they want to do, though at other times, if you try to get them to do the same thing it is of no interest and is like pulling teeth. Jeff, Will and Abel spontaneously cleaned an entire room, the dining room, on their own today. They swept, dusted, vacuumed, polished and decorated. Why? Because they were making a chess museum. Yes, a chess museum. Along with the seven chess sets they set up, one of which is the prized glass chess set grandpa sent, they spoke in quiet museum voices, listened to classical music, and worked like professionals. The only thing missing was them quoting Shakespeare to make for a truly remarkable scene to behold. Here is a video for your enjoyment.

Jeff's big day
Here are a couple of pictures of Jeffrey's baptism. It was a marvelous day. Jeffrey was so happy. We are sorry none of you could be there in person, but know your hearts are always with us. Jeffrey is an amazing young man. He is a great example to old and young alike. We are thankful for his choice to follow the Savior.
