dad and I sitting around Hayley right bfore she opened it--I was so excited --before and after
we all were--it was a great day

Hooray the mission call has come!!! So
Hayley opened her mission call on Friday afternoon --the anticipation and suspense was high--family gathered around her in person and by cell phone--on speaker-- drum roll...she opened it---and found out she has hereby been called to serve for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day saints as a full time missionary in the:


Portugal Porto Mission (In Europe) she leaves on Jan 7 and to enter the Provo MTC then probably after about 8 weeks depending on visa and such will leave for Portugal. Her Mission Pres and wife are James, and Lynda Henery originally from Colorado they look very sweet in the pic in her packet. When she gets to the mtc her P.O box will indicate the date of their departure date of the MTC ... and so for now we just have her address to the MTC (minus the PO box)





very happy for you Hayley and know that you will love this adventure like the many other advertures up to this point in your life--we also know that your sincere testimony will be shared with others and that you will hold up your standards and the light of the gospel. we pray for the members their to start to be prepared now --so that when you arrive they can be prepared to hear the good news of the gospel. The gospel truths are the most wonderful knowledge and we are proud that you have made yourself worthy to go about sharing them in the capcity of a full time Sister Missionary--we love you lots and will support you in any way to be successful in this endevor

Bryan's birthday this month Sept 26th

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYAN THIS MONTH ON THE 26TH

we Remember well Sept 26th of 1981--we were so thrilled to have our first son and have him all well and healthy, it was an easy delivery (if that is possible) and he weighed in at 5lbs 8 oz. and 21 inches long he had dark hair and looked like dad we are so thankful that we got to be the parents of this fun loving, ambitious, hardworking, hardplaying, teaseing , smartie pants & ever a ,gentlemen. He has always been an adventerous boy--who has won over the hearts of many.

we are thankful for the things he has done in his 27 years and for the influence that he has been on each of us.

One Sat morning dad and I were sleeping in a little late--we hear someone getting into the sink in the kitchen and turning on the water.. it was Bryan he was like 3 at the time I think and he had gotten down the oatmeal and pan and salt and was adding some water to the oatmeal to start his own breakfast since no one was there to do it for him. Just an example of his self starter personality and independance; at even a young age-- we love you a bushal and a peck and much more and hope that this is the best year ever ---Happy birthday --Mom and Dad
