Deb made us this plaque for our anniversary.  We love it.  Thanks Deb we will do our best to help all those we can.  We are enjoying David and Kimberly this week.  It's so great to see family.  We have missed that the most.  But the work is going forward and we are blessed to have a part in it.

Thank you so much for the beautiful quilt.  We love to look at it and feel you are close to us.  We miss you so much and appreciate all your prayers in our behalf.  We think of you often and are so grateful for your love and support.

Our last district Lt to Rt Elder Cameron(Houston,Texas),  Elder Carrasco, (Chilli), Elder Aguirre, (Draper, Utah) and Elder Castenyada (Idaho Falls, Idaho) The Elders with the bike hats biked 5 miles each way to go to the meeting. Not far but with city traffic a little tricky. They are hardworking dedicated missionaries.  We love serving with them.  They are a lot of fun.

Dad and I outside Maria's home the day we let the sister's take over her lessons.  She will be baptized Nov. 17 if she comes to church tomorrow and the next week.  She was sick last week and this week she started a new job so we pray she will be able to come so she can get baptized on her birthday as she had planned.
