It's Friday! We love the weekends.

My kids love Fridays, just like I do. This morning when I was taking Lindsey to seminary, Christopher called me to say, "Happy Friday!" Tonight Lindsey and I will be going to help out with the Wilkinson quintuplets. This will be my first time to take her with me and I hope she's as excited about it as I am. This picture was taken during spring break when the three of us went to Carino's for lunch. I hope YOU have an exceptional Friday!

Hi Kelly! I can't believe how kids have grown up. I have enjoyed keeping up with you and your famnily on your blog. So much in fact, that you have motivated me to start my own family blog. You'll have to check Jody, Noah and I out at our blog: http://virginiatexans.blogspot.com/

Have a great Friday! Jennifer

I love Fridays too Kelly. That is so cool to go and get to take care of all those babies...I cannot even imagine. Your kids are adorable. BTW I got your sweet card today. Thanks you so much. Sorry, I am saying this on the blog but it is easier then going and opening my email right now. You are so very thoughtful, and I appreciate it. Take Care, and Happy Friday to you too.

Kelly...thanks for the help with my blog- I went in and made those changes to the settings. I'm so glad you told Michelle about my blog. I am so happy to hear about Gloria and Karina and their weddings. I am so proud of both of them!!

My Friday was great! I spent most of the day reading a manuscript for a book that'll be published in October.

Fridays are the best! Especially now that my hubby has Fridays off :) (After many, many years of begging him to do so, now he wonders why it took him so long to comply to my request!) There's nothing better than going out for some great food and then catching a great dvd at home!

Hi Kelly!!
You found me and that is sooo cooolll! Our family profile has been with LDS family services for a few years now and we, at least for the past year and a half or so, have been a little out of touch with them as we have been blessed to adopt two children thru the state foster care system!! Children are such a joy and a huge blessing. It's been fun seeing your blog!! You look as beautiful as ever, like you forgot that you're s'pose to be aging! :)
Anyway, thanks for looking me up and I want to send you our latest family picture as soon as we can pick it up from the photo shop.
Love ya,
Yvonne (Zuster Young) & Co.

Book of Mormon Stories Pool Party!

Hopefully this title, Book of Mormon Stories Pool Party , does not sound irreverent, because as an Activity Days leader, I felt compelled to come up with a fun end-of-the-summer event that is also uplifting, and after all, who doesn't love a splash in the pool on a hot day in August?  My current church calling, or official role that I volunteer for, allows me to plan two activities each month for girls ages 8 to 11, that will encourage them to learn and live the gospel, serve others, and use the talents Heavenly Father has given them, to learn to do many good things.  This year's seminary course of study for high school students is The Book of Mormon, and since I am a huge fan of this inspired book of scripture, I came up with this idea to have each girl show up to my house with a written summary of one of her favorite stories from within its many pages, and share it with the rest of the girls, while outside in our swimsuits near our backyard swimming pool!  As each girl shares

Our new daughter!

This picture was taken at church a few days ago while Kelly was on his way to the US for work this week. We have some wonderful news to share.  We are adopting 7-year-old Yeh Min Yu, who has been in our home off and on the last couple of months.  There's a lot that goes into making this official, dealing with US Homeland Security to arrange for her immigration visa, Taiwan courts and Chinese documents, getting a home study done by a licensed, qualified person, applying for a passport.  You have no idea.  I'll be glad when it's all done, but I couldn't wait to share this bit of joy with everyone.  We will name her Hannah to go on her new US birth certificate.  She's excited and nervous to go to America with us.  She can say more than 100 words in English so far.  Some of her favorite things to say are "small dog, butterfly, apple, pig."  She says it more like pig-uh.  We love her and feel this is one of the reasons we came to Taiwan.  Who would have thoug

Elder Larson to return from Thailand soon

Soon is relative, I suppose. Our son has been away from home more than a year and a half as he has been volunteering as a full-time missionary in the Thailand Bangkok Mission of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since September 14, 2016. He will be home in four months and is working so hard, knowing his time there is winding down. He has been assigned to train Elder Ben Meyer, from Sydney, Australia, as they serve in Ubon, Thailand. Christopher has been there since November. We are very proud of his dedication and hard work. This week in Thailand, the new prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, with his wife, Wendy Nelson, along with one of the Twelve Apostles, Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, and his wife, Patricia Holland, will be on their world ministering tour and be where our son is. The Church members and missionaries in Thailand are very excited and happy for this special visit! I can't wait to hear how it goes, and I look forward to pictures and stories to come.
