More fun pics from Esperanza Mexico


Elder Horlacher and his district at the church
Elder Horlacher's new and improved desk.
He moved his desk into his room by his bed.
I'm so glad that he LOVES his calendar!!!


He's pretty excited about his new planner and the pictures that he put into it.

Thanksgiving 2014

Before we started on the road, Cambria was sad that she wouldn't be there with us at the Ranch
for Thanksgiving Dinner. So I dropped off a pie for her and Jeff to enjoy.
I'm pretty sure it put a smile on her face!!!

Traveling to Glendale just the three of us.
It was crazy and SAD to look back and see that our car wasn't FULL anymore with
ALL four of our kids. One on a mission, one married and one engaged and JUST our Sydnee!!!
We love that we still have our baby!!





 The boys were reading Trevor's blog about his mission.
They were loving his letters and pictures. It made them feel like he was close by.

More from Our Missionary

 Elder Horlacher learned how to make tortillas from a member on his PDay.



 Elder Horlacher's blanket that he found that could cover his body.
 He said that the cemetery's there are CRAZY!!!!



CHEER FOR THE HOLIDAYS

 Sydnee was involved in the CHEER FOR THE HOLIDAYS event where ALL of the
Cheerleaders in St. George were invited to come and perform.
The admission was to bring a canned food item & it went to Dixie Care & Share.
She and Raya both performed with their squads.
Cecilee & Angel and Cambria & Jeff went to support her.

Welcome Home Elder Barker

Elder Austin Barker came home from his 2 year mission from Argentina, Rosario.
He was such an amazing missionary. We enjoyed hearing his report and hearing him speak spanish.
These young men are just amazing and were truly saved for these latter days!!

Funny Things My Missionary says,

I asked him while we were online:
"Trevor do any members feed you missionaries?"
He said: "Yes, they make this most BLAND soup all of the time, last week I went to a home and I finished my first bowl and the lady filled it up again, I'm too nice I can't say NO, so I was on my last spoonful and I was gagging. 'How in the heck do you get
FULL off of something so disgusting?'"
Bryan said, "Welcome to the mission life!"

I asked him:
"Trevor have you bought a blanket yet?"
He said: "Yes I got a blanket, it was kind of hard because they said they didn't have one big enough to cover my body because I am too BIG!" Remember the people there are small people.

Mini-Elder H.

I talked to my neighbor a few weeks ago about possibly making a lifesize
cutout of my missionary. She had never done that before so she said that she would give it a try.
She showed up one day with this. I told her that he is 6'3" and she laughed and said
that she just wanted to try out the printing to see if it would work.
I LOVE IT!!! It just puts a smile on my face.
Cambria and the girls had a dance party with Elder Horlacher the first night and just LOVED it!!
Sydnee just loves her little brother and misses him so much!!!
