What is Hump Day?

I think it means that you have been out on your mission a year and like a camel that stores important nutrients in it's hump you have stored important learning experiences in your book of life like: testimony, love for God the Father and Jesus, an understanding of the plan of salvation, love for the Church, and love for home and family. I can't believe how much I miss Jordan some days. He still has to fill up another hump (year 2009) but if times keeps going as fast as the past year, he'll be home in a flash.

It is a great blessing to have a missionary.

Hurrah for Israel!

They are so good together

We drove up to Boise this weekend - a very long and boring drive - but so worth it.

Noah was baptized, confirmed, and ordained a priest in the Aronic Priesthood. I can see a new light radiating from him or is it that he just lights up around Nikki? My favorite story of Noah's conversion is, when the Elders called and asked Nikki if there was anything they should know about him before they started teaching him, she said, "Yes. He is really cute".

Nikki made dinner for us on Sunday. MMMMM MMMMM MMMMM

She is a gourmet cook. We had steamed clams, sturgeon, mashed potatoes and yams, bread, brocolli, and bannana cream pie. I felt like I was on the cooking channel as we ate in her Pottery Barn like kitchen.
