Arrival, Exit, Visitor

What a great week.  Some long days, and short cold nights.  Winter is coming in at quite a pace!
We welcomed five new sisters and five new elders this week.  What an amazing group they are!  Some are shy, others are bold, and they are all ours WE LOVE THEM!









 There is a lot of energy at lunch.  They have just met their new companions and there is so much information to learn from each other!  They are all great sports about the day.  The new missionaries are still pretty tired from the long day previous.
As soon as we got them all out the door and off to their new areas, we welcome the departing missionaries into for final interviews and a nice dinner and evening meeting.  There are lots of tears and half a box of Kleenex used up in that evening.

 There are so many different ways to take pictures.  We could be here all night!

After we sent the last two missionaries off to the airport the next afternoon, we had the special opportunity to welcome our first visitor from home.  Our youngest son, came to visit us.  We will get five days with him letting him get to know what he missed when we were here 20+ years ago with the family.  He was three when we returned to the states.  He is looking forward to the Korean food!  He's already tired of the traffic.  We sat in traffic for an hour one days with more cars in a few blocks than in the entire city of Logan, Utah.  He has the right facial hair for the winter.
Next week we'll have lots of pictures from our adventures with him.
This week we saw a few other interesting sights around town.



Short and sweet today.  We hope you enjoy and can find a picture of your loved ones.  We miss the ones who have been honorably released and welcome the ones who are here to make an impact.
Until next time!
