to help raise money for the youth to attend EFY.
Matilda "Tilly" and R loved the jumping castle!
So did the dad's. This is Jared and Tilly's dad Tim

Most of you know I had to go to New Zealand(actually any country) to receive my new visa for Australia. Our dear family friend Tiffany Hjorth Ryland served her mission in Auckland New Zealand. She hooked my up with this AMAZING family to stay with, while my visa was being processed. This saved me hundreds of dollars (that we don't have). They took me in like they had known me forever! It was a great non-tourist experience of New Zealand!
This is Brandon who is 2 months older than R.He made me miss R while I was gone!

Yep. I love that cheesy grin from R, and the new trike! Miss you guys! Hope we get to talk again soon! Dar is done with finals next week, and I'll be done with my classes by next Thursday! Woot! Woot! Can't wait!
It looks like you guys are having fun! I love seeing how big R is getting. Our little Ashley reminds me of her sooo much. She has the straight hair on top and litle curls in the back. We have the yellow childrens place dress that you guys had, and everytime Ashley wears it she reminds me of R, they just look so similar!
How fun that R has new little friends. That is one of the great things about the gospel is that it is so much easier to make friends when you move somewhere new, you already know that you have some of the same basic values and it gives you a wonderful building block for friendships!
Keep us updated, I am loving having an Austrailian experiance through your blog!!! :)
How fun - so many new experiences for your family. I'm glad you're having a good time. We sure miss you!
