If you can't beat 'em....

Last night we were went Pernell's Aunt and Uncle's home and had a fun evening with all the cousins, their wives and kids. There were about 25 people total there. Lots of Pizza, lots of cake, cookies and ice cream. A fun night!!


Today we should be home. But, remember our luck, that just does not happen. Pernell's cousins worked on our car some today, but came to the conclusion it is the timing in the car that needs to be fixed. So now, the car is sitting at the mechanics, waiting for it to be fixed. Here's hoping that tomorrow we will be able to drive home!

So what, you may ask, did we do today? Being that we were planning to go home, we did not go to church today. We thought we should get some church in. After we had a nice lunch at Red Butte Cafe in the Foothill Village, we went to Temple Square. The girls really loved it!

We went into the North Visitors Center, and the girls loved it! The two things they really liked a lot was the Christus. Amazing!

After that we went through a section that was about the Proclamation to the Family. Here are the two sister missionaries that walked us through. One was from Vancouver, BC and the other was from Hong Kong. They were really nice and we had fun with them!

Just after we did that, we received a call from Pernell's cousin and we needed to go help tow the car to the mechanic, so we had to cut our visit short. But now without running across the street to see the waterfall at the Conference Center. It was such a beautiful day today, and I am glad we had the opportunity to take the girls to Temple Square.





So we are doing great. Just waiting. Ever so patiently waiting. Sam does not want to go home and keeps trying to convince us to leaver her here. She loves loves loves her Aunts and Aunt Ammie's boyfriend, John. He's a trooper! I'm pretty certain they are going to go through shock when we leave. They are giving John a run for his money!



So until we get home, we are smiling and loving life! Here's hoping we can get home tomorrow. See... still smiling.. even if it looks fake! HA!!
