Last Week in Church

So, Krys and I go to church a little early last Sunday for a little bit of business. Everything is going ho-hum like and whatnot. As we are driving through the parking lot we see an old man walking towards the building. He waves. We wave back. However, he looks kind of familiar. This was our following conversation:

Krys: Was that Dallin H. Oaks?
Felipe: It sure looks like him.
Krys: Why would an apostle be here?
Felipe: I don't know, besides he looks too old and his eyebrows are way too frazzly
Krys: Yeah, it can't be him.
Felipe: If it's not him, he's a really good look alike.

Later on I pass by the same man in the hallway. We nod hello as I was busy trying to contact the man I'm going to meet up with. Before Sacrament Meeting starts we see that very same old man sitting next to the Bishop up front. Turns out it was the very same Dallin H. Oaks whom we had been conversing about. Apparently he was attending a baby blessing which I think is a great-granddaughter. And yes, the baby did get blessed. That day was fun.

It is a good thing you recognized him. I probably wouldn't have. :)
