Family News

Dear Family...
Dad´s computer had to go back to the hospital. He will post our adventures later. However, we really wanted you all to know how much we appreciate the pictures and notes and posts on the blog.
We will be thinking of you this weekend as you celebrate Andrew´s farewell and eat all that good food together. We wish we could be there, but we know that we are where we belong at the present time.
Please remember how very much we lovc all of of you. We know Andrew will be a great missionary and we are very proud of him and his parents for raising such a great young man. We are so excited for him.
All our love to all of you...
DadandMom

PS: Billy...the pictures are so awesome! Many thanks and much love. D&M

Mom and Dad
It was great having Billy here for an evening. Hes a great guy and I can see why he as so many friends. He is a straight shooter with no gile. I can take what he says to the bank because he is forthright in his life. I like him. Hes going to come back next week for Andrew fairwell and that will be nice.

Andrew is really ready for his mission. I think the waiting is getting a little old for him. He simply wants to get started. He went out with a friend of his last night who came home from his mission after just 3 weeks. Andrew said he was embarrassed for his friend because the kid wasnt embarrassed for himself. Apparently the YM didnt want to go but went and came back to demonstrate to his parents that he was serious in not wanting to go on a mission. Something like that. And Andrew said the YM was not at all ashamed or embarressed. Andrew said he felt bad for the kid because now his whole life he will no only have to live with not going but with going and coming home. Andrew says the kid will eventually realize what a mistake it was and regret it.

Everyone else seems to be doing really well. We went out to dinner and a movie with the Bushes on Friday and it was great o see them. DJ played football this year and Sean did not so we had a couple of months were the Bushes and Riches did not go out to dinner. It was to weird. Seeing Don and Ruthie is the part of being in Idaho that makes it worth being here. So it was great seeing them.

Billy loves those two dogs of his. I would say Billy loves those two dogs of yours but Im not sure if thats how its going to go. It think Billy has a plan to buy two replacement dogs and pawn them off on you as your old dogs, hoping that the combination of two years absances and some form of dementia work in his favor.
