CATCHING UP!





































































Seems like time has just flown by these last several weeks. Lots of fun. Busy, exciting, fun!
Here are a few photos of what we have been doing.
Heather home from Colorado had her little Arayla blessed a few weeks ago by Grandpa in Jeanette & Kent's ward. The photo taken at their home after the blessing.
The next week Jack took Jacob out for early morning Buckeye flying fun. Jacob flew in Kevin's (Jack's friend) two seater flying machine. Sounded like they had a wonderful time in the air. We were sad we couldn't spend time with Jacob and Kara and the kids while they were in UT the last few weeks. We will look forward to a Nevada trip to see them soon. Looking forward also to seeing Arayla and Heather again soon.
We had a fun filled Tea Party evening with Heidi and Don's kids last night. We had a little English culture night.
We talked about English traditions; afternoon tea, with treats. Big Ben, and best of all.......I told them about the Mormon Missionaries (Apostles) traveled to England to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Those who later became prophets. Namely of Wilford Woodruff who baptized all the United Brethren group (except one) and another 1200 in an eight month period. When Mom and Dad came in; they told them about our English tradition tea party, treats most importantly the propriety of the pinky finger out when you sip your tea (soda or milk in our case) and forgot most of the Mormon Apostle missionary story. How funny. We'll just keep on teaching!
Next up is German Culture Night (by Grandpa Sommer in German, then in English translation). We'll keep you posted!
