Our 2016 Summer Bookends of white shirts and ties...

It's been a summer we'll always remember 
because this wonderful guy 
(the one in the white shirt and tie on the right) 
came home from his 2 year mission spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ
to the fantastic people of North and South Carolina. 


This is the group of missionaries that returned home
from serving together in the North Carolina Charlotte Mission. 

I think there's a piece of each of their hearts still left behind. 

I also think President and Sister Alexander 
are the greatest things since sliced bread and electric lights. 


Lots more to come about those fantastic people in North and South Carolina
in future posts because we were blessed to meet many of them
when we traveled back and visited a few weeks ago. <3

Speaking of "future posts", 
I've come to realize my main motivation for writing this blog 
is to have something fun to email our missionary on p-day. 
Who knew? 

The poor blog sat by it's lonely self 
collecting dust all summer. 
That changed in a hurry tonight 
because last Wednesday our new missionary 
(the one in the white shirt and tie being man-handled by his siblings below) 
entered the Missionary Training Center 
on his way to the New Hampshire Manchester Mission. 

His p-day is tomorrow 
and I'm frantically writing this blog post 
so I'll have something fun to send our missionary! 
What a silly girl! 




So here are some fun twigs


and their fun dog. 


We love you Elder Branch!!

Thanks for spreading the message that 
we all need Jesus. <3
