After all the helping and serving the family this summer we needed a break. I went to see Valerie come in first in a 1/2 marathon ( in her age group) and 4th over all! She looked great and hardly missed a beat recovering very quickly. It was conference weekend and we saw all 4 sessions with the grandkids. We enjoyed Sunday sessions with 3 new converts from Puerto Rico and the Philippines. It was so great to share my testimony and inform them of the Family History program and the joys of service.
I returned home for one day which happened to be our senior reunion for the Switzerland Geneva mission. We were reminded that we were the last to serve in that mission as it is now the France Lyon Mission.. we loved being reminded of fond memories
Then we started our trip to CALIFORNIA . We stayed with Terry and Doug in Mariposa and enjoyed a day at the river with Charice and the three kids.The rest of the time we served as missionaries with the Malhums. We even got to go to Zone conference and here Elder Nielsen. So now we are even more excited to serve another full time mission
