Mom now you can tell the truth

It was supposed to be a surprise but the cat is going to need to come out of the bag sooner or later. I know a lot has been happening in little G-town. A lot has been happening in the church. A lot has been happening with the presidency. A lot has been happening in my life. A lot has been happening in every ones lives. I'd like to take this opportunity to say slow down and think about whats really important. Think about you family(they love you), think about you health(don't eat that cookie), think about you friend(they'll always have you back), and think about a missionaries your supporting as he does the Lords work(Hello I'm still in Mexico).

But only for 3 more weeks. Yup I'm coming hope just a few days early. It's to close to Christmas I need to spend some time with family. I'd love to talk to you all and show you some pictures. I'd love to go out for coffee or make you some tacitos or Chili Reinas. Maybe we can all have a mexican fiesta when I get back. Either way I'll coming in on the 9th of December. Can't wait to see you all soon.

God bless and know I'm still plugging away doing the lords work.

On a personal note = I'm learning alot about myself in these closing weeks as well and learning how to let the lord work in my life.

Let me warn you, you are going to freeze when you get home! Mike comes home in a week or so and I tried to warn him, but he will still be cold. He only owns like one sweatshirt, and one light coat though, not a true Oregonian anymore. Are you going to be really tan? (sorry, stupid question!)

No Heidi I think its a legit question. Because soon we will be in Christmas pictures next to this guy and that lets us know if we need to hit the tanning beds ASAP. lol. So in all seriousness, should we hit the tanning beds, so we don't look like sickly pale oregonians...

Maybe we can do some sort of color printing where the white people look tan and the tan person looks white. Heidi is right - you will freeze. Remember grandpa from Florida used to where long underwear and an Russian hat will ear muffs, while you went on the annual Thanksgiving shoot. Actually - We are so looking forward to having you home again. Love you mom
