A Visit to the Volcan San Salvador

This is our view of the Volcun San Salvador from our apartment.

We were invited to go on an outing with one of the missionary districts to the Volcun San Salvador on November 11th. It was a beautiful day and perfect for a little hike. The air was so fresh and clean. I couldn't decide which pictures to post so I made a slide show.

It's Your Birthday

We had a great celebration at the institute for Dad's birthday. We had a yummy carrot cake and then Brother Arbizu brought Dad a giant candy bar. Later in the week we stopped and had dinner at Chili's

This is the new office supervisor, Daniel Hernandez. We are so glad to have the opportunity to work with him.

Halloween in El Salvador

Halloween is not celebrated here though there was a little display of Halloween things at Walmart. They celebrate a holiday on November 2 called Day of the Dead which is very similar to our Memorial Day. They clean up the cemetary and remember those who have passed on. So we decided to have our own small celebration for Halloween and brought some decorations and some cookies to give to all who came to the service center. So I thought I would share our decorations.

Is It Still October?

In October two of my siblings celebrated their birthdays and I got to thinking about how grateful I am for the love and support of my brothers and sisters through the years. I have been blessed with a wonderful family, not only my brothers and sisters but their spouses as well. I just wanted to say thank you for all you do for me and the love you share with me and my family. When our children have been away from home going to school they have always known that there was a place they could go for help and support at the homes of my brothers and sisters. I love you and miss you. Thank you. This video is just a little taste of the fun times we have had throughout the years. I didn't have alot of pictures to choose from so I did my best with what I have.
