Holidays in Santa Cruz

Building a fence for the Forsyths.

Our Assistants to the Presidents. Four hard-

working and very fun Elders.


A Seniors's Day Outing

Look closely, and you can see lots of little orange
dots on those leaves. The orange dots are Monarch
butterflies.

A real skeleton of a Blue whale. Does the word
humongous come to mind?

A Santa Cruz Sunset

A Thanksgiving Feast for the Santa Cruz Zone

Pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving was a hit, Elder Elmer.

Teaching Alex and her dad, the Plan of Salvation.

Our visual aids are very helpful. Thanks Grace and

Livie.

Thanksgiving at the Blakes, Elder Baker, and

Elder Heyland. It was wonderful!

A little Christmas spirit in Santa Cruz.

In case your wondering if it gets cold in Santa

Cruz, just look at this picture. We would like to say

thanks to Cheryll Mabray, and her helpers for

this great quilt!

Another transfer, and more Sisters in the Santa

Cruz Zone.

Brian and Crystal are sealed in the Oakland Temple.

It poured down rain, but didn't dampen our joy for

this wonderful occassion. One of the great blessings

of our mission.

Brad and Ash got to help the seniors fill the stockings

for all the missionaries.

Sister Manarello makes a little hat for Brad and Ash's

baby.

A great day for a walk on the beach!

Brad didn't quite escape this wave. Actually

it got us all.

All Ashley wanted to do was to see some ocean.

So we worked hard to give her a little ocean.

The cup use to hold a Slurpee, but now it's being

used to hold sea glass and other treasures.

Felton for a walk in the Redwoods.

Lights at the harbor.

The Boardwalk for a little shopping.

Sister Mcnally can't wait till the kids come back.

How's this for a Christmas tree? We love our

ornaments!

Elder Baker, Sophie, and Elder Murray

Christmas 2009, Sophie's Baptism Day!

Sophie with her mom, Remy, and sister, Sydney. How

grateful we are for this sweet little family in our lives.

We hope each of you have a wonderful new year!
