Guatemala

    Just a quick note to let you know that we are leaving on Tuesday, tomorrow, for Guatemala. We are excited to finally be able to visit the Guatemala City Temple, the Quetzaltenango Temple and Lake Atitlan.  It will be a fast trip and we will be home on Friday night. We will send pictures and tell you all about it next week. Our temple is closed for the next two weeks for deep cleaning and repairs.

     This last week was amazing. The temple was filled and overflowing. It was exhausting and exciting at the same time. We just love being busy and able to serve so many. President and Sister Petersen have gone to Tennessee to visit their son. They are both doing very well. Sister Kitley is trying to decide whether to have surgery on her knee or just try a cortizone shot and delay the surgery till she gets home. But she is moving better and able to help in the office at the temple now. Elder Gibbons has overused his ankle and is in a lot of pain but with two weeks off he will be able to recoup and be ready to go when we reopen. We are just a bunch of old people with aches and pains who love being here and serving in this temple.

     Hope you all enjoyed your Labor Day Weekend. Stay healthy and happy. We love you. Thank you for your love and support and prayers. Dad and Mom, Grandpa and Grandma, Lon and Nancy
