Here is our Ahlin Dr. home when I was there on Saturday. Notice the black trim, and they painted the mailbox too. I think it looks good.
Here we are with Mike when he visited last Thursday. He worked with Dad all day.

Avery and Mia loved wearing my missionary badge. Mia wore it on her tummy. Crazy girls.


Mia also loves wearing my glasses and having me call her "Grandma."



Look at Emmy...this picture of her makes me laugh. Eliza and Avery were playing tic tac toe on the i-phone. These pictures of the kids were taken when we were there for conference weekend.

The Ballard's, Lhamon's and us out to dinner for a mini dinner group. It was so much fun to see them.


Pres. & Sister Pike, our bishop from our Arcadia ward, and us saying goodbye to Elder McGrew as he goes home from his mission.


Dad standing by the mission truck that he drives everyday, with 2 couches, kitchen tables and a bookcase he bought at Salvation Army for the missionaries.


Toni & Rick Farr came to visit us last weekend. We had so much fun with them! We drove them around La Canada to show them the homes we've lived in, and all the sights. Our home on Ahlin Drive looks good and we had so many memories seeing it. That was a fun place to live, even if it did have a ton of spiders and creatures that came into the house sometimes. We miss the Farr's and loved their visit and hope they come back again soon.

This is a friend of mine from BYU many years ago when we were both freshman at Deseret Towers. It's so fun being in the same ward with her family. We ate dinner at their home last Sunday with two other senior missionary couples.
Michael Hawkes came over this week cooked a spaghetti lunch for all the Elders who came to a Leadership Training meeting. The LOVED his spaghetti! We fed about 50 missionaries.

Dad and Sir Michael Hawkes with our office elders. Elder Grigsby, on the left really helps me out a lot in the office, and on the right is Elder Bodily who is such a great guy also. They are in charge of the vehicles. Dad shares an office with them.



Here we are on Emmy's blessing day. It was so much fun being there with them on her special day. She was such a good baby all day, and all the girls love her so much!

This is the front of our mission office. There is a Stake Center in the same parking lot, and that's where all the Zone meetings are held. The missionaries always come early so they can take candy from our candy dish, and see all their missionary friends before the meeting.

This is Dad and Elder Corrigan, after their shopping spree at Walmart. Elder Corrigan is the one who is training Dad to do the Housing.
These are all the senior couples in our mission. We went over to Pres. Pike's home for dinner.
On the far left are the Snow's, then the employment couple the Sander's, the Pike's, and far right are the Corrigan's.
