He Lives! and he's happy...

Several people have wondered why I haven't posted pictures
of Elder Hillary - and the answer would be - because if any of
you have Elders out there, the mom's have to beg and plead
for them to actually take one picture. (I'll let Mandy tell the story
of Ryan her hubbie on his mission and his pictures to his mom...)(Busted)
So.... I finally received a clip of a few pictures I could post. I wanted to include Elder Carter from Logan, Utah in case Momma and Bish Carter were checking in. Our sons would be the two handsome Elders on the back Left side. Awww cute. I have no clue who anyone else is because Ryan's handwriting is so TINY that you can't read it.


Now needless to say - I'm sure that they have taken really nice pictures of each other.... but this one was dedicated to Mandy, the queen of stealing the camera and taking crazy pictures, such as the picture under this one which was actually one of the pictures left on Ryan's camera before he left....case dismissed. Don't you just love crisp white shirts.....ooooo
da manda...

These 2 families were among those being baptized last Saturday. Elder Hillary said he was asked to give a talk about the Holy Ghost, in Spanish of course, he said - It'll be fine. Hopefully they understand taco, enchilada, and horchata right? Oh, and, please pass the chips... Those are the only words I know... These two families have been very kind and open to Elder Carter and Elder Hillary, they have fed them and loved them (these pictures were from a party they had and invited them over for dinner) - they are so beautiful inside and out.
Well except for this little diva -
I asked Ryan to FedX her home she's EXTRA cute!
Just had a question on this picture, can you really
give rabbit ears to the Missionaries AND have
Barbie moon you in the same picture?

Gotta love our Missionaries!
PS - If you'll look to the counter on the right
you'll see - 500 days left as of today, whew, and I thought it
would be longer than that!
We love you Elder Hillary!! (and Elder Carter!)
Would you please put some sunscreen on that nose?
You're starting to look like your mom!!
