St. George Church

Sunday morning in London we jumped on a bus and found our way to St. George's Parish Church in Bloomsbury. This is the little church where Sarah Jarrold Hyder was married. We arrived just in time for Sunday services. The priest was reciting and a woman priest was singing. It was a beautiful little building with stained glass and dark pews. But I couldn't help but think how different it was from the temple. She must have been so happy when her marriage was finally consecrated in the temple. I marvel that this woman did what she did. Just to leave this beautiful country which is so green and lush and go to the desert valley of Salt lake was a sacrifice I cannot comprehend. Thank you Sarah!

SUCCESS

I would just like to let everyone know that I donated blood today. Successfully. No double pricks on my finger and no wiggling the needle in my arm and most importantly, no pool of blood and no bruise! HECK YES.

The Big Blair Announcement

This is the first time we've needed to write

Please be kind, please be polite.

As we've thought about what to say

We've stewed the night and day away.

With such big changes about to come soon

We wanted to say it with a boom!

How do you announce such a big change?

How will we survive on a firing range?

We wanted to say how much we love you!

We are so very grateful for all that you do!

We don't have the experience and feel to young

We hope that we've save up enough $$mon$$!

We are a little nervous not to lie.

We hope that together we will survive!

We didn't think the timing would be now.

We hope we will get through this, someway, somehow.

We love you so much, it is so very true.

The only words we can think of are: Thank you and Thank you.

Now all of you may be thinking one thing, which is oh so neat

But you'd be wrong! (And have stinky feet!)

We hope in a few months you don't get stun by a bee

But please, yes please instead visit us in DC!

April Fifteenth is the date we move in.

What a Salt Lake experience this has been!

From Peter and Kate

We were asked Thursday to move to DC. They needed to know by Sunday night / first thing Monday Morning. We are sad to leave but excited about our adventure. Come visit us!
