June 2024




Dallin received his endowments at the Phoenix temple.





Mesa temple

Writing day with this girl!



 How’s home MTC going?

Wrinkled shirt, name tag, shorts.
Meeting all his new mission friends on Zoom, learning mission rules, studying scriptures and Preach My Gospel, learning and preparing.
Running to the kitchen for snacks. Leaving a trail of chaos.
He officially leaves for in-person MTC early early Wednesday morning. He’ll be there for six weeks then head off to Honduras!

My two middle children left for FSY this morning and won’t be back til Saturday.
Elder Dallin is leaving Wednesday!
These were their mostly silly goodbyes.
Justin & Dallin: “See ya.”


Gilbert temple



Behind every missionary are very, very tired but proud parents, piles of his things left behind, a household of people and pets that have to somehow live without him while he’s gone.
18 years with Dallin was SO LONG but SO SHORT.
He was the most perfect premie baby, a terrorizing toddler, a sweet boy, a roller coaster teen. Running ahead of everyone, always so excited about life, always passionately building some thing.
Remember to use your deodorant and not be too much of a chatterbox but always always keep loving and blessing “the whole world and everyone in it.” (His prayer catchphrase.)
Not sure how I was so lucky to be your mom.
