BACK TO UTAH

We left our family in Pennsylvania and flew into Salt Lake City on October 27th, arriving at 10:18 in the morning.
Thousands of mixed emotions!!!!!  We have the best of several worlds!  People we love in Grenada and family and friends we love at home.  How lucky are we?!!!!
The big WELCOME HOME party that began at the airport in Salt Lake City

Then the fun begins!!!  Unpacking our belongings......

........and hauling.......(with all of our Rassmussen buddies).....

....and doing a little bit of what we LOVE in between the packing and hauling





This is where we are living, Neola the beautiful!
Kent was driven around by 7 year old Sai.  He's a pretty good little driver!
Love this guy!  It's so good to be with dad again!  His generosity and love are overwhelming!


I have a family here on earth.
They are so good to me.
I want to share my life with them through all eternity.
Families can be together forever
Through Heavenly Father's plan.
I always want to be with my own family,
And the Lord has shown me how I can.

FAMILY IS EVERYTHING!





AND SO ANOTHER WEEK COMES TO A CLOSE.
Time is moving so quickly, we need to slow down for a moment and enjoy the ride!
