Stella's 7

Stella just turned 7. And this was the year she wanted her ears pierced. I kept asking her if she was sure she wanted them pierced, and she was sure. On the way to the store stella said that she had butterflies in her stomach, other than that she did awesome.

Stella has a carnival birthday party. Every thing was centered around winning tickets. We turned our basement into a carnival with differnt booths, the kids played many different games. At the end of the party each person was able to go to the "store" and redeem their ticket. It was alot of fun.

But I could kick myself, I forgot to take

pictures oh well.

Happy Birthday Stella!

President and Sister Black

My Dad was called to be a mission president, a few months ago. My parents will have to be to their assigned area on July 1st. They were told that it would be an English speaking mission, but it could be anywhere from Denver Colorado to Ghana. We waited patiently until they received their mission call. We went through all sorts of emotions with them. Fear, excitement, fear excitement, and more fear. My parent got their call at the beginning of February. We each were able to make a guess of where we thought they were going to go, and nobody was right. I think we were all pretty shocked with their assignment. But we couldn't be more excited.

They are going to the Las Vegas West Mission.

Congratulations!
