In July of 2009 we got to go to New York and be in the Hill Cumorah Pageant. Our Zion's camp neighbors were the Jacobson's from Ohio and they were also Katie's cast team leaders. We were fast friends and they are such awesome people. Torie and I have kept in touch over the last 2 years mostly through our blogs and a few phone calls. She let me know she was coming to bring her oldest to BYU in June and I asked if she would stay with us. She and her two daughters came for a couple of nights and we had so much fun. We had Thai food, watched chick flicks and talked and talked. Nelson was out of town with the Young Men so he didn't even have to suffer through the girl's weekend!
While they were here, it was Michael's halfway point at the MTC so we made him and his district a little party. We sent a card that said something like..."HALF a HALF doughnut on us to celebrate HALFway to Romania"! We sent a box of half doughnuts with a banner that says ROMANIA and red, yellow and blue (flag colors) party hats. The MTC wouldn't take the balloons, didn't know that until we got to the mail place but oh well, it was fun.
Katie and Torie the morning she left. Katie is dressed as a pioneer because there was on her way to a stake trek breakfast activity. Thanks for the visit Torie! Maybe we will see you at pageant again!
