FHE Tonight

My brother Cole is serving a mission in Peru right now. Today he wrote home and asked for pictures of where he was from. He said the people that he talked to thought he was a "city boy." He wanted to show them pictures of corn fields, tractors, mountains, and the open space that he calls home.

For FHE tonight we decided to get the pictures!



It was fun to drive around and get them! It was good to reminisce about Cole and memories we've made in good ol' East Garland! It really is a beautiful place to live!

The grand prize photo has to go to this one:
God Bless America!
I think it is one Cole would be proud of! This flag flies proudly at the home of Brent and Colleen Shaffer. They own the farm Cole worked on for several years before he left for his mission. I have never known anyone to have more pride in America than Cole! Hee hee! If he saw anything with even a hint of patriotism, he had to have it. It was funny! He usually makes mention of how great America is in his weekly emails home. We sure miss him! But, I know he is on the Lord's errand! He is having a heck of an adventure too! We are thankful to have him serving! 

It was a great night!
