JUST A LITTLE GOOD NEWS

Well it finally came---that large white envelope that you "fear" to open.  We got our mission call to serve in Frankfurt, Germany in the Centers for Young Adults and will be leaving in February .  We are not certain at this point what our responsibilities will be--supervising one specific Center or supervising many Centers as they have discussed both options with us.  Whatever it will be, we are very excited and can now start learning German (yea right).

Karli was happy that the departure date was AFTER the baby , and so are we to have a little spoiling time.  

Life is so good and we feel so blessed to be able to serve again.

CALIFORNIA...and then some.

Fall is such a beautiful, peaceful time of the year.  Those beautiful earthy colors are my favorite.   We have seen some amazing color changes in the local canyons this year.

We spent the past week in California--first a quick but fun stop with the Cox's.  Always fun to chat, enjoy Becky's yummy cooking and do some shopping.  While in Tulare we met up with Allan's former office staff for dinner.  It was so good to see all those wonderful folks again.  They are such great people and we share very fond memories.

We spent a very busy and fun week with Aaron, Deb and boys.  We had some special time with each boy--going to lunch, for donuts, volunteering in their classes, soccer practice, and movie night (on the wide screen I might add)--yea Aaron!

We could REALLY not get enough of Reid.  He is the cuddliest and most adorable little guy and loved Grandma to hold him.  Yipee!

We went to Farmers Market in San Luis to enjoy the food and festivities as well as a great day at the park by Morro Bay and even had a few moments to can some yummy peaches.  Life is never dull at the A2 household and we are always sad to leave those active boys.  Thanks Aaron and Deb for a fun, fun visit!
