We made a goal when Darran's parents left to be mission presidents for the Maryland Baltimore Mission to visit them each year they were serving. Since this was trip #3 that means we did it...and they come home this summer! Time sure does fly by. The best part about this trip, besides having Eliza with us this time, was that my parents came out with us!
We arrived on Tuesday and spent that evening with the new missionaries...in fact, we were on the same flight as they were. We joined them for dinner and their testimony meeting. Very exciting to see missionaries so enthusiastic about the adventure they are to embark upon!
After transfer meeting on Wednesday we accompanied the missionaries that were going home to the temple. Mom stayed back at the house with Eliza so the rest of us could enjoy a session. The DC temple is beautiful and it was so nice to be in the there again. We even had the pleasure of having the temple president, Elder Earl C. Tingey and his wife, speak to us for a few minutes.
Then the night was made complete with a trip to Rita's. We LOVE their gelatis and we were sure to take advantage of them...visiting each night we could! Nothing like eating ice cream when it's freezing cold outside...so worth it!
Tired...yet very happy, hard-working missionaries!
