St. George Mini-Vacation






















Ben & Larry preparing to ride 4 wheelers at Sand Hollow State Park. Beautiful day, even with the somewhat cool temperatures

Shellee, Danny & kids were staying at Green Valley so we dropped in to say hello before heading back to Murray

It's a new day - Back to Reality (sort of )







The drive home from Seattle was mostly foggy, and due to some over confidence on my part, we ended up not selling the Malibu before we had to leave for home, and had to drive both the

Burb and the Malibu home. Larry bought walkie-talkies so we could chat along the way. To make sure neither of us had the chance to get drowsy while driving, we took turns singing songs to each other in our best falsetto voices. =)

The other thing that kept us alert was the phone calls from Jacob asking where we were, and how much longer till we were in Utah. Then once in Utah, where were we, and how much longer till we got to his house? We arrived at Shellee's just after dark, and were greeted by cute grandchildren screaming "GRANDMA!! GRANDPA!!" It was so good to see their adorable faces and HUG them. Halle Buggie wasn't sure she wanted anything to do with us, but after an hour or so, she finally gave in and let me hug her. And to those who wonder, yes, it's good to be home.

Mission Epilogue


Elder Adams, Tonya Moore, Elder Rojas





Tonya & Bill Moore
We just HAD to go up to Seattle/Bellevue for Tonya Moore's baptism. We became good friends with Tonya and Bill while we lived in the Bellevue 3rd ward, and were pleased that she called and wanted Larry to baptize her. It was great to see everyone. We celebrated by going out to dinner with Tonya & Bill and Shannon & Sam Adams at the Square Lotus near Factoria. It was a great end to a wonderful day!
