One week ago...

Almost one week ago Ame and I took

Grandma and Grandpa to the airport

at 5:3o Friday morning, to catch their flight to Germany.

We were soo sad to say our goodbyes (again),

but are very proud of them and their committment to the Lord.

I took a picture that morning of mom and dad

(all dressed in their missionary attire) with Ame.

I am soo mad somehow that picture is gone from my

camera (darn kids playing with the camera).

We had them over earlier that week for dinner and everyone said

their sad good bye. Ame definitely had the hardest time

saying good bye to grandma and grandpa. Several tears fell

down those cheeks, as she hugged and kissed them. She

is definitely the closest to her grandparents, as they

in turn have a soft spot for their OLDEST grand-daughter.

We decided that night, that Ame would secretly come

with mom to take them to the airport

and get to say one last good bye!

The were of course pleasantly surprised to see her again.

And now just as before, we will anxiously look forward to our

weekly phone call and getting to see each other via Skype.

So together we begin a new adventure

WITH Elder and Sister Asplund....in Germany!

These are two are THE MOST AMAZING people I know!

I LOVE YOU more than I could ever express

and am proud of you just the same.
