Apostles Mnemonics

In the 90's we learned in seminary some rhymes and tricks to remember the order of seniority of the Apostles. This has little spiritual importance, but it's fun. So we tried to remember them last night, "Ten: ten-hen-duck-mallard-ballard!" but that was in the 90's. So I worked with my super clever siblings last night to come up with new ones. If you know a seminary teacher, you'll want to pass these along.

One: I have one son, his name is MONSON
Two: I have a second son, his name is NELSON
Three: Tree-OAKS
Four: Floor, ducks poop on the floor, duck-mallard-BALLARD
Five: Dive through the HALEStorm!
Six: Licks from the Lord's Bulldog HOLLAND
Seven: Leaven-yeast-chemistry EYRING
Eight: In German it's acht - UCHTDORF
Nine: Fine-toothed comb to tame gNARly BED hair: BEDNAR
Ten: Quen-ten COOK
Eleven: 11 is two ones just like the two F's in CHRISTOFFERSON
Twelve: Twelve apostles NEIL at the feet of the savior. ANDERSON
Thirteen: Go back to three-tree, under the tree are some RASberries and a BAND
Fourteen: Go back to four - the ducks are chased by your cousin Steve: STEVENSON
Fifteen: Go back to five, Dive through the HALEstorm into the DALE in G.RENLUND
