Mission

Dad and I have been called to serve a full time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  We will serve for one year in the Tennessee Knoxville Mission.  We are both very excited.  We will be officially 'set apart' on Sunday, December 13th at 9 AM.  However, we get to attend a missionary training from 9:30-4:00 this Thursday.  Elder W. Craig Zwick, of the Seventy, will be in our area doing the training.  All the missionaries from these parts will be in attendance, so it should be quite interesting.  We got dad a new suit and tie, and I got a sweater and scarf.  We are ready to go!

Baby JD's Blessing

Sweet baby JD joined the family in May.  We were able to attend his blessing in July.  I love this sweet family.  My favorite activity on this trip was the dance party. (in the dark, wearing glow bracelets)

Reunion 2014

The Provo reunion was one highlight of my summer.  Mike and I were lucky to have Alex and Avery along for the ride.  It was so good to see everyone.  I can't wait for the next one.

Busy Day

Saturday, September 28th was a busy day.  We started out at the Exchange Place, where dad played with the community band.  From there we went to Rush Street to celebrate Eireann's 3rd birthday, which is on the 29th.  Next a visit with Melba.  Then I came home and made 10 jars of taco hot sauce.  Whew!!!
