John's Mission Reunion


No, we didn’t host it at our house nor did we forget to take the camera, we just forgot to use it! Well this picture was taken as we were getting ready to leave so that will have to be good enough.
Saturday night was so fun to see John’s mission president as well as missionaries that he served with. There wasn’t as good of a turn out as there has been in years past with only about 20 missionaries showing up. It was surprising to see how many people had been affected by the economic crisis. At least 20% of the people had either been laid off or lost a business within the last few months. Overall though, everyone was doing well and it was great to see some old friends again.

Our Cruise


John and I went on a cruise with my family just before Christmas.  We went to Roatan, Honduras; Belize City, Belize; and Cozumel, Mexico.  We went snorkeling, four wheeling, and zip-lining.  We also enjoyed playing games like shuffle board, wizard, and sand volleyball.   They always had food so we all brought back a few extra pounds!
