We are very grateful to have had the blessing of serving a mission. Thankful to give a small portion of our lives back to the Lord for the many blessings we have received. Our testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith grew as we learned more of his early life and the wonderful spirit that we felt at his birthplace. We have gained eternal friends in many of the people of Vermont and the missionaries we served with.
We so love our family and good friends and thank them for their their support and love while we were away!
A few days after arriving home, we were released from our mission by our Stake President Nelson. So we lay our name tags aside for the last time. It feels a bit sad to know we are released from the service of the Lord. Our live has already become more busy and complicated then it was in the mission field. We know we can still be missionaries and serve our fellow man, we hope we can keep this spirit in our lives!

I enjoyed seeing pictures of your travels home and especially of all your grandkids. It's nice to keep up with the family! Looks like you had a nice time with all and catching up with the grandkids!
