Sunday, March 25, 2012. This is a picture that will be forever imprinted on my heart. Soldiers blessing the sacrament. What more can I say? Friday, March 23, 2012. When I feel sorry for myself because of missing all of the wonderful friends we've made here, I'll remember the last words of our dear friend Ashley:. See you there.". Friday, March 9, 2012. It isn't going to be easy to beat me! I call this a "knot" of soldiers. Some of our soldiers elect to take marshall arts training in addition to regular P...

ElkinsMission: December 2011
http://elkinsmission.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2011. I absolutely love these natural Christmas trees that grow here. The little red berries are so festive and fun! There are trees with red berries everywhere. Some have leaves, some are just berries, some are trimmed like this into a Christmas tree shape. I would like to steal one to put in my house. I wouldn't even have to decorate it! We were happy to have permission to spend Christmas with our daughter and her family. Our oldest grandson turned twelve a couple days before Chris...

ElkinsMission: Tender Mercies and Transfers
http://elkinsmission.blogspot.com/2012/01/tender-mercies-and-transfers.html
Friday, January 27, 2012. Tender Mercies and Transfers. This is a dear friend who used to come out to our Ft. Eustis Group to teach some of the Sunday lessons to the soldiers. Just before Christmas she and her husband were blessed with a sweet little son who will soon be legally adopted and sealed for eternity. What joy! We had the privilege of attending "transfer meeting" yesterday in Richmond. This is where all of the new missionaries are matched up to their companions, who will be trainers. We...This ...

ElkinsMission: September 2011
http://elkinsmission.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 9, 2011. The Chaplain called us! In the afternoon we drove to the Norfolk airport (1 hour away) to get Soldier K. After a couple calls and 1 1/2 hours of flight delays we were finally able to pick him up. The poor man had been travelling all day from California and had a major headache. I knew how he felt because flying makes me sick too. We finally got him delivered back to the base. Tuesday we had to be on base early for In-Processing which is usually on Monday, but was delayed becaus...

ElkinsMission: February 2012
http://elkinsmission.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 28, 2012. Everybody is named "Elder". I just wanted to add that the cute wife our our new stake president counselor is from one of the Carribbean countries and has a really fun accent. When we heard her speak of her conversion to the Church she said, "When we were being taught by the missionaries I thought that if we joined the church we would have to name all of our sons Elder. " Ha ha ha. Sunday, February 26, 2012. Manwiches for the soldiers. Elder S got the staples out of the back of...

A Lil BRIT different: Christmas Brunch with the Family
http://alilbritdifferent.blogspot.com/2013/01/christmas-brunch-with-family.html
Saturday, January 26, 2013. Christmas Brunch with the Family. In order for us to "share" our Christmas Day. With the "other" families,. We usually have Christmas Brunch at my house. 10AM- come in your jammies! It's pretty much mayhem until all the gifts are open. Unfortunately John's camera was on "blur" mode. But here are some "shots" you can kinda see what's going on. Lots of presents to go around even though we do a name exchange. And we are so excited to have Grandma with us. They are wayyyy too cute.

A Lil BRIT different: December 2012
http://alilbritdifferent.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 14, 2012. I sat in Dr. Lewis office for a post op check. And across from me sat a 31 year old woman. Who was legally blind. Her son had just gotten his drivers license. And drove her to the appointment because she can't drive. She sat excitedly talking about the. New "blind" classes she was beginning the next day. As I listened to her and watched her look about. My heart sank for her. I felt so sorry that at a young age she was. Literally going blind-but she seemed to be. I am alive,.
