Families!!!!!!

We had a wonderful family reunion for my Mother's side of the family this year and had such a fun time doing it! Magrath's campground was a great spot, except for the giant mosquitos that tried to carry off some of the young ones. We had a lot of fun connecting and making new friends with cousins that we don't see very often.

Friendships of Gold

This has been a year of miracles!! Two weddings, two grand babies and two childhood friends supporting me and cheering me on through all of it! I am truly blessed!

The Garden Tomb just outside the old city walls

Jerusalem and the Western Wall

Driving into Jerusalem was such a thrill!

We had a taxi driver from Tel Aviv offer to drive us to Jerusalem. He was 87 years old, he was amazing and acted as our tour guide as we drove the hour to Jerusalem. Rocks, sand and more rocks. But finally a view of the Holy City and what a thrill it was to drive into Jerusalem and find our apartment that would be our home for a week while we explored this historic city. We got settled and then our guide came and picked us up for our first glance of the old city walls and some panoramic views of Jerusalem and Bethlehem. Amos Ron was our guide, an Israeli Jew who loves mormons, we had fun with him.

Ruins from long ago!
