Merry Christmas 2013

Christmas morning in Kansas was spent waking up with all of our children except elder Hunter Bishop. It has been over four years since all four children have been home on Christmas morning. Although it was an emotional day, I am grateful for this stage of life and the choices my children are making.

FIRST CHRISTMAS: Allison and Brandon

Opening their "honeymoon" package thrilled the newlyweds. Carson asked for this punchingbag to relieve his stress from all the homework he has. Hope it works.

Jessica asked for this Zoomer pet as she knows we will never get a real puppy because of Brad's allergies. Dad and her had fun getting acquainted.

We spent an afternoon at Crown Center taking these delightful photos!!!

I flew my sister Tanya to Kansas City to help with the KC Open House. BEST DECISION EVER as we discovered LICE in Jessica's hair only 4 days before reception at our home.

SECOND BEST DECISION:  Hiring a caterer!!!

Brandon and Allison Bishop

Our oldest son was sealed in the Denver, Colorado Temple on December 21, 2013! Here is a look at some beautiful moments of the morning and evening!

Elder Bishop arrives to Fortaleza, Brazil

Hunter is now in Fortaleza, Brazil:  safe and ready to serve!!!

Elder Hunter Bishop flew to NY on Monday, Dec 16. The first flight--5 AM-- out of Twin Falls was canceled due to fog. He barely made the SLC TO NY flight as it took the SECOND plane from Twin Falls, ID two attempts to land due to fog in SLC. The plane got to SLC, but returned to Twin Falls for gas and went back to SLC!!

From SLC to NY, Elder Bishop sat in front of Steve Correll of The Office and his 2 children. Flight attendants were very attentive to the youngsters and Steve C. kept a low profile. Elder Bishop called from NY using another missionary's phone card. It was so good to hear his voice and hear how excited he was to begin another journey!! The fact that he sat in front of a celebrity was icing on the cake!!

Driving to DENVER for the wedding

Greg and Tori and family moved to California during the holidays. The family was able to attend Brandon and Allison's wedding in Denver, Co. We caravan-ed with them out to Denver from Kansas!
