Sweetest Day Ever, Elves, Annie Update :)

On Alyse and Jarom's one year wedding anniversary they went to the Temple and were married for all eternity!  It was the sweetest day ever!  Below they are exiting the Temple as happy as can be!!

Them with our family minus Annie.

It was a cold rainy day but Alyse was so filled with joy that she didn't feel cold.

The happy couple

With the parents.

Beautiful happy couple.

 

Sisters:)

When we get the professional pictures I will post more.  Alyse and I had the chance to visit the Elves at Gardner Village.  Hot chocolate, muffin tops, and fudge.  It was a fun day:) 

Annie is happy and doing well!  I live for her emails every week. Below is her with one of the girls she lives with.  

This picture was taken at her first Zone Conference.  These are some of her friends from the MTC.  She said it was like a family reunion seeing them again.  

 

Annie with her companion that she loves sooo much!

Read the sign she is holding.  I wish I was there!!

Annie and her companion giving service.

This was the picture of all the missionaries that went to Tahiti with Annie.  We were excited to get it.

Annie is happy and doing well.  She is busy teaching, giving service, and becoming more fluent in the languages there. In her last letter she expressed such gratitude for her mission, her companion, her Savior, her Father In Heaven, her family, the Temple, the gospel, and all that she has been given.  We love hearing from her!!!

Spooks, Birthdays, and Oct. Activities :)

Starting out we have Halloween.  It was a fun day filled with Halloween Parades and visits with my little and big spooks.  It ended with our neighbors Halloween barbecue and handing out candy to the trick or treaters.  Below is me with my little super heroes.
