My coments have not been working and I have no one to say Help to.(Like Dane or Sonya or Julie or Cody) So I have to figure it out myself using the help button. But I think it is fixed now.
Here it is the 21st of June. It is the longest day of the year and probably will not get dark until close to midnight. It is really hard to go to bed in the light. And we usually can't. So that is making for two old and tired people. But life is great. We are excited and waiting to hear where Cody will go on his mission. He has submitted his papers and now we all wait and anticipate. Of course I think it is Russia. Yahoo!!!
We welcomed a new couple the Palmers this week. We meant them at the airport and then the driver took us to their new apartment. It was clear across town and took 2hrs to drive. Traffic is crazy here. As much as I do not like the metro(subway) it is definetly the fastest way from point A to B. I prefer busses, but they do not always get you where you need to be.
This is transfer week and we are sending 6 wonderful missionaries home and we welcome 6 new ones tomorrow. Wed 21. So we are still going through a lot of changes in our mission. We are getting a new office elder..Elder Bruev..russian native. and Elder Huston will be leaving. We really get attached to the office elders and it is always hard to see one leave..
Our Shellie is on the Pioneer Trek. We hope she will be happy and enjoy it. It will probably be a little hard for her because she is famous for tired and sore legs and feet. But she is so cute..
We have skyped with most of the grandchildren lately and they all seem to be good. We love them all so much. They make their grandparents proud. Little Morgan just turned 6 yrs old and Karlee will be 3 next week. They need to stop having birthdays until we get home.
We love you all and our prayers are with our dear friends Hugh and Karen and Rick and Nina who are going through some pretty hard trials in their lives now. And we hope that all you will remember them in your prayers also.The mission is great. We are learning to talk so good in sign language that we probably will keep talking that way when we get home. Just a few pictures

| And it is package time. Love the packages. Our children really take good care of us. They serve with us and they receive the blessings. Michelle tells us she is getting them to share with her brothers. She thinks they need them more than her. |
 |
| This is the box when we first open it. Then underneath Michelle has everything packed in solid in zip lock baggies. She has got the packing down. She sent all our prescriptions and over the counter medicines for the next 6 months. And of course a few good things also. |
 |
| I asked President if he wanted to send us home? Drug addicts...Good try but it did not work. |

| Our Friend Angie from home was touring in Europe. She e-mailed us and we were able to visit with her for awhile. It was so good to see her. We love her |

Ok, now that I know this works... I'm sending Cody to the USVI. That way, we can all visit him... hopefully MANY times! I love that you are starting to feel comfortable and able to communicate with everyone. After being there for a week, I will admit that made me VERY nervous. I guess your last 6 months you'll finally feel comfortable. Kind of funny.
Love you, miss you. Hugs.
P.S. Yeah for packages and drugs. haha.
I am with Michelle! YEAH FOR DRUGS! LOL, just kidding. Love you so much!
