Tuesday

Today I got up and baked and cooked for 3 straight hours.  Made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies to take to the lunch for the returning Elders.  Also, made a huge potato salad to take to the Geronio's this afternoon.   The Elders and Sisters didn't arrive from the Temple until about 45 minutes late but they love cold Taco Bell so who cares!

They all sang again to us a "Thank you" song and then at the end they sang this funny little missionary song about Hawaii and being a missionary here.  Such bitter sweet moments.

We hurried home, grabbed the potato salad and leftover watermelon and ran over to Nick Geronios house.  He started early today and it's a Tuesday not a Wednesday.  The birds were out and being kind of annoying, their wing span is huge now and they were kind of in our face.  I gave one some watermelon and that keep him busy. I told Nick it was our anniversary tomorrow and next year would be out 50th!  He said we'd reserve the place now and have a big party and renew our vows!  Sounds kind of fun, I told him I'd get my kids to fly over for it.  We'll see.  In the pictures you can see how beautiful the place is, a lovely Wedding venue.

Nick, Nicki and Shy listening to the Elders give their spiritual thought
