Portugal 11-11-07

My birthday lunch at a Chinese restaurant. See my "cork" neclace?

Elders Wray and Davis at the Chinese restaurant.



Here's Eva. Maribel, her mother, is sitting beside me. There were three mothers in that room. It was a very crowded hospital and her space was very small. They only had one hour for visiting and only allowed 3 people in at a time. So we had to make our visit very short because her mother and grandmother were waiting downstairs.

These are some of our members sitting together at district conference. Irma Maria Filomena, Elder Davis, Elder Wray, Christophe and Katiana.

Here is Dad, sitting on the stand at district conference, with President and Sister Terry sitting beside him. It is held in a building that is like an ampitheater, with the stand below the seats, so that is why we are looking down on him.

Love the Necklace! I'm glad that you had a good birthday. You're a natural with the baby. If only you could teach people how to be a mother like you are, now that would change the world. It's good that so many people can be around your influence though -- it has definitely helped me. Tom looks like a general authority -- although I don't want to wish anything on him. I'm sure the conference was the best they've had with Tom in charge!

Are you asleep Dad?

Mom & Dad said...

No, he's not asleep. He is reviewing the program. I took this picture before the meeting started. Dad would have had a fit if I had tried to take pictures during the meeting.
