Day 175 - Wednesday, December 21, 2016
 Preparations for Christmas Zone Conference are pretty intense.  No matter how early we start preparing, the last few days become very long and demanding.  Days are long and rest is short.  All of that being said, it is all worth it to serve our missionaries providing a rich in-field Christmas experience. The rewards are great for the work required. We don't know what we'd do without our Elders who work alongside us in the office. The box from America arrived with enough socks to gift to our Elders.  I have personally seen some of the socks that they wear.  A new pair of socks will be very much appreciated!

   Day 384 - July 14-15, 2017 On Friday Brian flew in to be with us for the weekend.  It was good to see him and can't wait to see our little Gracie.  She and Quinn are the only babies we haven't seen yet.  Brian was great to help around the house getting things back together.  On Saturday morning we went near the Chicago airport to meet with one of our returned missionaries.  The timing didn't work out so I took the car back home to an appointment I had.  Scott and Brian took the train home.  They stopped in the city to remember the sites and sounds of Chicago since it had been three years.  The two of them had a great father-son morning and did a little ministering along the way.  Family and returned missionaries turn out to be our highest priority in this time of life.

Day 377 - July 8, 2017 Before driving back to Illinois, we had to stop and see our Koudelka crew in Boise!  Although we didn't have a long visit, it was enough time to share a meal with, see their new home, talk and play games with.  It was a boost to our hearts to hug another family of ours!  Can't wait until we're all together again.       Grandpa playing tick-tock!   Three years means a lot of growth!  Isaac, Lolo, Lola, Claire, Sadie and Liv. God made us family!
