Legends say that hummingbirds float free of time, carrying our hopes for love, joy and celebration. The hummingbird's delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life's sweetest creation.

Super Tuesday


Today, May 21, 2019 - our oldest grandson Carson Scott had his missionary papers sent to Salt Lake for a mission call.  We all wait in great anticipation to see where he will be called to serve.  We are very excited and proud of this fine young man.  All 16 of his cousins are making their guess as to where he will go serve.  We shall all know soon.
Carson is the oldest of the Great Grandchildren on the Saunders side of the family and he is the oldest of the Grandchildren so he has carried a heavy load of responsibility in being a good example and leading out.  We are grateful that he is up to the task.
As Wendy and I are in the Missionary Training Center (MTC) now getting trained before we leave for Fiji we see over 1200 young missionaries each day as they go to their classes, studying the language they will use in amazing language labs, at the cafeteria, and visiting together in all areas of the MTC grounds.  We can't help but think of our grandchildren that are approaching the age of mission application.  We see all these young boys and girls and we are inspired by how happy and excited they are to be on a mission.  They are excited about where they are going and are just so pleasant and nice to visit with.
We have nieces and nephews also that are coming of the age to go on missions and we are happy and excited for them.
