Peep My Crew: David

So I've decided to do a little spotlight on some of my nearest and dearest, my Crew. I've asked each of them to tell a little about how they met me, some funny experiences, and I'll give a little insight on them as well. I've been really blessed in my life to be surrounded by great people who have helped me more than I could ever express, and they make it amazing to be me! So they deserve a shout out. Peep my Crew!

*****

David is my brother-in-law and someone I really truly look up to a lot. David and Sharee were already married by the time I got home from my mission, so we've been able to grow pretty close as men married to Stanton women. (And let me say before we get into trouble that being married to a Stanton woman in a JOY and a BLESSING!) Anyway, because David's in the Air Force and they've lived far away from us, we haven't been able to do as much together as we would like. But when we get time together, we make it count! Whether it's playing "Tanks" on Wii, shooting stuff, golfing, or tossing baby dolls, we always have a blast. (And hopefully soon we'll be Jeep buddies as well!) The greatest thing of all about David, though, has been being able to watch him grow and change in the Gospel. He always was a great man, but he continues to get better and better as a member of the Church. How honored I am to have been able to help teach him the Gospel, baptize him, give him the Priesthood, and go with him and his family to the temple to be sealed together forever. It doesn't get any better than that. He's like the older brother I always wanted, and I can't thank him enough.

How long have you known me?
6 years.

How did we meet?
Bob and Marlene Stanton's house.

What's something funny that has happened between us?
Wii Tanks. (Which we actually BEAT the last time we played, after what felt like a couple hundred tries at it!)

What's your favorite memory we share?
Having you and your wife at my family's sealing.

Any words of wisdom?
Work hard and have fun!
