 What an AMAZING day!!!  There's nothing like seeing your child come off the airplane after not seeing her for 18 months!  It was so funny because we got there early and we were all ready and there is a big screen showing people as they come off the escalator. Well we were all set up on the side Emma was supposed to come out and all of a sudden the screen showed her walking off the other side!!!!!  So we had to make a mad dash to be there when she came out :)  It was so fun to give her a squeeze!  I'm so proud of all the hard work and dedication she had.  She was an amazing missionary and I know these 18 months have changed her for good.  It was so fun having my mom here!   We couldn't get over the fact that Eva is taller than Emma now!  Wow how things change!

Hey yall! Another week! It was a great week. I don't remember much of it, but I do remember that it was great. Let's get into it...... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • Our friend Elise got baptized! It was such a precious baptism! It was actually the best because she just had it with another kid in our ward and it was so perfect, because we didnt have to do anything for it. Just teach her! It was awesome! She was so happy to be baptized! • After the baptism, our ward missionary visited their family and he called us after to tell us that Elise's dad's fiance, who wasnt interested when we we were teaching Elise, is interested in taking the missionary lessons now!! Such a miracle!! • Our friend Alejandra is so ready for baptism! She actually asked if we could move it up!! Yay! She has her interview this week. • We had a guy call our stake communications lady and ask to attend a church service. We called him for her and he said that he has pondered and stud...
