More Pictures...




I may be just a very proud grandma,
But this has got to be one of the cutest babies
I've ever seen.

Welcome little girl.
We love you.

What a blessing to have this little girl safely here.
She is so beautiful!

Phoebe


Believe it or not this is the very same cat
we brought with us to Nebraska.
She has put on the "mission addition" as it is called.
Unlike the rest of us who have come to love it here
Phoebe is bidding her time till she can go home.
Her only solace is food.
Poor kitty.

Mongolian Grill



Our new favorite place to eat is the Hu Hot.
You gather up all your own choices of Mongolian delights
and they grill it for you on this huge grill.
We are told that the ancient Mongolian warriors
cooked their food on the flip side of their shields
during war times and that is why they do it this way.
How cool is that?

In Honor of Saint Patrick's Day...



A wee bit of Irish landscape,


a pretty Irish cottage,


my handsome Irish missionary,


a giant Irish waterfall,


and the famous Cliffs of Moher.

Just a few of the m-a-n-y pictures
we took on our trip to Ireland last year.
What a beautiful country! What incredible history
just sitting in everyones backyards.
Happy Saint Patrick's day to all you little leprechauns.

New Office Missionaries


Welcome to Elder and Sister Ringel from Salem, Utah. They will serve in the office, replacing Elder and Sister Johnson. Sister Ringel will be our new mission secretary and Elder Ringel will be caring for all our vehicles, a job sometimes referred to as the Car Zar. We have gotten to know and love them already. They will be spending a year with us and we are just thrilled.

Hermana Kunz


Sarah's MTC Companion, Sister Kendell,


studying Spanish,


MTC gym record for most push-ups,


practicing Spanish at the 'Call Center',


MTC Zone at the Provo Temple.

Sarah had a wonderful time at the MTC and wrote often of her love for her companion and the Elders in her Zone. It's hard to believe that her time there is over. March 9th she flew to Phoenix! Her mission president, President Beck, called to say she had arrived safely and would spend the evening at the mission home for a brief training and then would be assigned to her companion and area. We are so excited for her and can't wait to get her first e-mail. Her preparation day will be Monday so we should hear something soon. We will keep you posted! Thank you for all your love and support. Please keep Sarah in your prayers.
