Summer 2009

I just wanted to post a few pictures of people at the lake, some visits in Salt Lake City, and a picture of three former Stake Presidents with Bob West who hosted a party for Pres. Fischer. We were delighted with the visits of Dean and Deanna and Nathan from California. We enjoyed the visit with Caitlin and Nate and their two children and Kasen. We are grateful for Scott who furnished the boat and taught Mandy how to waterboard and ski. Jeff and Mike and Megan and Mandy enjoyed the lake and the visits to famous places around the Chicago area. Everyone helped in keeping things in order...thanks everyone!

We had a delightful and impressive visit to Louisville to see Bruce and lovely Tiffany and their children and also saw Bruce receive his specialty degree as an orthodontiist. Mother (Joyce) reminisced of days when she served her mission in the East Central States Mission and where Joyce and I met while I was in dental school there. Fond memories and wonderful experiences then and now again to be where we began our life together.

We have truly been blessed with all of you. Thanks for your thoughfulness and taking care of one another and sharing. The children of Paul got re-acquainted with some of their cousins also. John D. gave us a new camera and we have more recent pictures that will post later.

Love,
Mother and Dad
