Vern Turns 40

Right in the middle of moving Vern turned 40!
The girls pulled off an amazing cake for him and Chantel
was able to make him a dinner of prime rib and yummy sides even with half
of the kitchen packed.

Happy Birthday Love!!!!

Our Last Windom Fishing Trip

Victoria, Cody and Chantel wanted to fish just one more time in
Minnesota, so on a very windy and sunny afternoon they took the poles and the worms
and went fishing. They didn't catch anything but sun and fun.

Then and Now

In October 2008 we took family photos by this Evergreen. How things have changed.

Here we are, October 2010, two years later at the same tree.

And just like last time, Jared did not want his picture taken and, just like last time we spent time chasing him around to get him in the picture with the rest of the family!

I will have to dig them out, but I think we also have pictures from 2006-07 by the same tree!

An Old Home for a Week

Chantel and Victoria traveled down to Sedalia, Missouri for a week
of training for Chantel.

While there, they stayed at the historic Hotel Bothwell in one of the original rooms.


The room was SMALL! Approximately 8x12 with a small bathroom and closet attached.
However, the hotel has a gorgeous lobby and second floor that is often used for weddings and receptions.

Going to the Temple

Before leaving for the week Vern, Victoria and Chantel went to The Temple
in Omaha to help watch the little people of those attending sessions, and to
witness the sealing of the Fonseca Family.

It was a great way to start off our week.

Eternal Marriage

While at The Temple we were blessed to witness the marriage and
sealing of the Fonseca Family.
