Missionary YW YM Activity

We used a chocolate fountain as an analogy of the sweetness of the gospel and the youth really got into it, literally!!! Such a fun night. I know why the Lord has called me so many times to work with the youth--CAUSE I LOVE THEM!!!! They are the BEST!

I Love my Sweetheart

It has been a great experience serving our mission in Wales and we have grown closer and more understanding and appreciative of each other. We are grateful to the Lord for this great blessing in our lives!!!

Beverly's Birthday Dinner

We had a wonderful time with the Pomfrets as we celebrated Beverly's birthday!!! They have been such good friends to us and have made us feel like a part of their family. Thanks so much for your friendship and love. We will miss you all!!!

The Fasinating Willett Farm

I visit teach Joanne Willett and her lovely family always joins us in our visit. This time we got a tour of the lambing area!! Fascinating. In the lower right hand picture the ewe is about to deliver, and in the left hand lower picture, that ewe has just delivered twins. In the upper right hand picture, those are lambs that have been rejected by their mothers and are being bottle fed, poor babies!!! There must be a gospel message here but we just enjoyed the visit.

The Roads are Lined with Daffodils

Spring is here and the roads are lined with beautiful yellow and white Daffodils!! It is always a delightful sign that spring is on its way!!! We are so delighted to enjoy two springs in this beautiful country.

Beautiful Cherry Blossoms

Spring is here and we are delighted. We still have the rain but not the bitter cold!!! Hooray!!! We tell everyone here we are from the "Valley of the Sun" and they say welcome to the "Valley of the Rain"!! No kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But that is why it is so beautiful and green!!

Our Fun District Before Transfers

We always have fun pictures with our district before transfers. How we love this group of missionaries--they are so much fun and very devoted!!!
