Called to Serve

My parents (along with my brother and his wife) arrived in Utah late Thursday night and stayed with my sister in Park City. On Friday we went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House, and we all came back to my house for dinner. On Saturday we spent the day up in Park City at my sisters. On Sunday everyone came to church with us including my grandma and her husband. It was fun to spend the weekend with family.

On Sunday after dinner we even got my grandma and her husband to play the wii. It was fun to watch them.

On Monday we took my parents to the MTC. They will be going to South Africa. Since there is a problem with the swine flu there, we had to say goodbye at the door. I never thought that I would be dropping my parents off in Provo.

Grandma and Grandpa we will miss you. We love you!!

You will be great missionaries!

Family pictures

One of my friends from high school took our family pictures. She did a great job! It has been a long time since we have had a family picture taken. Now I know why... It is not fun. I don't blame my kids because I don't like to sit and have my picture taken either. It seems like a lot of work and stress to get everyone ready and then be happy and smile for pictures. There were alot of pictures and they were all great but in almost every picture there was someone not looking, making a funny face, crying, or had their eyes closed. We did get a few that everyone looks pretty good. I want to thank my friend for putting up with all of us (and the mosquitos) and taking our pictures. She is a great photographer.
