Home Sweet Home

We made it!!! We are excited to be here and to be able to see so many people. The flight was long and Porter did okay, but I hope to never have to do it again without Terry. We had a few set backs and got off late with our first flight. Porter cried a few times and it was very uncomfortable. We then missed our second flight and had to take a later one. We finally got to Burley around 8 pm and began our fun.

When we woke up the next morning it was a precious moment to see all these loved ones come out from different rooms in grandma's house that we didn't even know were there, but the house was full. Lisa and Jason, Jarom, Aunt Anna Maria and Jim, Monica and my mom arrived just a few minutes after we had all gotten up. We had some good talks and memorable times throughout the weekend with everyone there.

Also on Saturday, September 29 we woke up to SNOW!! Can you believe it?!! It was 39 degrees outside. I couldn't believe it because we were still having pretty warm days still in Indiana. Usually in the 80's. As we drove around that afternoon we saw that a few snowmen were made . That's how much snow there was!

Jerrica's reception was beautiful and so was she. She looked just wonderful and so happy. Her colors were fall colors and I loved that. I went back many times to dip more things into the chocolate fountain.

Monica's talk in sacrament meeting was wonderful. She looks so great and exudes the spirit like crazy. I feel like she hasn't skipped a beat. She is still that wonderful Monica that I love so much. She told us many wonderful stories about her mission and it was fun to talk to each other and share stories.

I'm glad you're having a good trip. It's a bummer I don't get to see you. We'll keep in touch though.
