My favorite picture; a raptor with a Raptor!

Kimo is Off to BYUI

Maxed out the cargo capacity of Tom/Kimo's truck!

Stayed the night in Vegas

Spectacular views on our drive to Idaho!

Spent the night in Provo, mountains were again spectacular-

notice the heart shape!

Bought Kimo boots in Provo.

Let's just say that it was cold in Utah and Idaho!

this is the windshield cleaning fluid at a gas station!

Almost there!

Rexburg Mongolian BBQ-guess which one is Kimo's!

Quite a change from tropical Honduras to the

arctic conditions in Rexburg!

Nice dorm!

Left Kimo's mattress topper in the truck 

and it was frozen!

At the college auditorium.

Rexburg temple!

Beautiful at night!

Kimo's new bishop and his counselors.

Nicomi and her warm hat!

So glad Nicomi, Manny and Claire 

are nearby Kimo!

I'm sure Kimo has never scraped ice or snow of

of anything, let alone a windshield!

Kimo driving us to Idaho Falls to the airport.

Seems like we just got him home and

now it's time to start missing him again!

After the Mission

Good to be together again!

A tangle of ties!

First Sunday going back to church at home!

Back at the beautiful SD temple!

Visiting our favorite sushi spot!

Just Like That

Here we are at the Stake building waiting to see 

President Batson so that he can release Kimo 

from his calling as a full-time missionary.  

Not sure he wants to be released, but it's time.

Uh, oh!  Here comes Pres. Batson!

Here with Pres. Batson, Kimo's first picture without his plaque (name tag)!

Just like that, Kimo's days as a full-time missionary are over,

at least for a while!

Kimo Comes Home!

Finally Kimo came home!

The month of October seemed to both go on forever and

at the same time go by in week long chunks!

We are just so happy to have Kimo home!

Our nice neighbors made this for their porch!

Kimo didn't get to see his glowing welcome home sign, 

his flight was delayed due to bad weather and he got in a day late!

Ready to welcome Kimo home!

Here he is!  He finally made it!  Here with some of the youth from church.

More friends!

So glad to be together again!  So glad to see Kimo!

So grateful to Heavenly Father for keeping him safe!

So glad Kimo served a mission!

We love Kimo...

So much!

Wisdom Teeth X 4

The anesthetist promising to do a good job! Emi was nervous!

They put her iv in a vein very close to her knuckle!

Painful!

Ice pack contraption-Emi looks loopy

Fruit of the doctor's labors!
