One Year This Month

Seniors celebrate Valentines at a Moroccan restaurant. Those
with the bad knees didn't sit on the floor.

Washing your hands is very important, especially if your
actually using them to eat with.

President did a good job of picking the restaurant.
It was pretty good, and we even got out before the
belly dancers showed up.


Santa Cruz in the springtime. Beautiful!
These are called Tulip Trees.

Another Zone activity at Henry Cowell Park.
We do like spoiling our young missionaries.

How we love serving with them.
Nice try Elder Cook, but it's just to big!

This is the bottom.
This is the top. Trust me, it's way up there.

Your not going to believe this, but we are standing inside a
giant Redwood.

These wonderful Spanish brothers & sisters got to go
hear Elder Richard G. Scott. It was wonderful!

Bro. Torres baptized his daughters, Paulina & Fernanda.

President & Sister Jackson's son, Clark.

Our new favorite thing to do on P-Day, collect sea glass.

Maria & Joie Sandoval. We spoke at their
baptism. They are wonderful!

Daniel & his family have waited a long time for this moment.
You should hear him tell the story of Joseph Smith's First Vision.

A trip to Main Street Bagels for the Sisters, just before
heading to San Jose for transfers. There was lots of giggling
around this little table, but when they teach you can feel the power.


Well, I think that should catch us up for awhile. We just want you to know how much we love each of you wonderful family and friends. We are so grateful for the opportunity we have to serve a mission together. The Lord has truly blessed us, and our family. We are so blessed to have the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ. I am on my third time reading it on the mission. It truly is evidence that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. I love the Book of Mormon!
We look forward to General Conference. That always makes for a wonderful weekend! Take care! Love to all!
