Temple trip

The reason we came down to Texas was to go through the temple with Hans. He leaves for his mission to Ghana on October 19th. It was such a sweet experience! Seeing someone you love so much receive those blessings was worth the trip. Love you, Hanseeeeee. :)

The little missionary! Called to serve in the Ghana Kumasi mission.

 

The family. Now only missing two members to be complete! ;)

Sibling love. And dorky faces.

 

We forgot how hot it was in Texas. The shade offers no mercy! And how could I pass up that face?

Hahahaha.

 

We celebrated Ava's birthday today, too. It was like Christmas!

Grandma helping with the unwrapping.

Dad trying to figure hymns out on the xylophone. It didn't help that half of them were out of tune!

Happy 2nd, Ava!

 

She. Was. Adorable. I miss her already!

Playing Pinochle. Fun!

It was such a fun day, and it went by so quickly!!
