News and Notes

Last Friday was a terrific day for John and Joe - they had such a successful time at Stage 13 of Le Tour de France. See John's blog here for all the details. Soooo much fun. Like I've stated before, shame on us if we don't take advantage of all that is around us while we're here in Europe for this season of our lives.

On Saturday we went to the Frankfurt Germany Temple with the youth group. We had a lovely time there and it was terrific to be inside the temple with the almost all our family (Jack won't return from Russia until November).




And since we were in Frankfurt, we just had to stop at the hauptbahnhof (central train station) and get a plate of our favorite noodles. Good eats for sure.

Sunday I put a pork roast in the slow cooker; when it was ready we served it with fried potatoes and green beans for Sunday dinner. It's not glamorous, but it's what we're doing here.

Everyday life with my people is where it's at.
