STAKE FAMILY HISTORY FAIR.

On October 24th Quen and I were in charge of
putting on the
ARVADA STAKE FAMILY HISTORY FAIR
We had a great group to work with
and it turned out to be a big success.
.
In the Family History Center
we had about 70 people come and
sign up for and learn a bit about
THE NEW FAMILY SEARCH PROGRAM
.
.
We also had a big group interested in learning
INDEXING
.
.
We had 11 tables of beautiful displays of
different ways to
PRESERVE FAMILY HISTORY
.
.
There were a number of other things as well,
such as Research Information
Information on preserving papers and documents
and
Videos on the NEW FAMILY SEARCH PROGRAM
.
Just think - one way or another
most of you Guys
WERE INVOLVED.
.
LOTS OF HAMMOND PICTURES TO LOOK AT.

Meet Our New Neighbors

When TRAVIS and JESSICA
bought the house next door, we
were just thrilled to have such a cute
young couple to be our new
NEIGHBORS.
.
But a short time later they
brought in their KIDS.
.
TWO beautiful BRITTNEY PUPS.
.
Sisters named MAGGIE AND CANDY
.
at first it was very hard to tell them apart.
.

This is CANDY, she is the smallest and
the most adventurist

This is MAGGIE, (my personal favorite)
she is really sweet and loveable
.

.
They both love to play, mind well, and don't bark much.
GREAT NEIGHBORS

they wait by the fence for QUEN to come out
AND PLAY

HOMECOMMING




Our Missionaries returned from Poland

Cheryl and Dean arrived home from their

mission in Poland on July 12th.


We were all so excited to see them

The family gathered at the airport

to welcome them home.

.

Of course we had to do something FUN

so that they knew we were

still the same SILLY FAMILY


.

They handled the culture shock very well

.

.

My how everyone has grown and

changed in just two years

.


WELCOME HOME DEAN A ND CHERYL

We are so glad you are home.
