MY SIDE KICK AND BUDDY...HE USED TO LIKE TO CUDDLE!
THIS IS A BLURRY PICTURE BUT MCALLEN WAS SUCH A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE. MOST IMPORTANTLY IT IS WHERE BEN SERVED HIS MISSION. IT WILL ALWAYS HOLD A SPECIAL PLACE IN OUR HEARTS. OUR FIRST GRANDCHILD TO SERVE A MISSION.
TEACHING THEM AT A YOUNG AGE TO LOVE DALLAS AND COWBOYS....THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MESQUITE, TX RODEO IN TEXAS! GOOD TIMES!
ALWAYS LIKING THE BOYS TO CUDDLE WITH HIM WHEN HE NAPS! HE LEARNED THAT FROM HIS MAMA!
FROM THE TIME HE WAS BORN...I ALWAYS THOUGHT JER HAD SUCH PERFECT FEATURES. I ALWAYS TRY TO DECIDE WHICH OF HIS BOYS LOOK MOST LIKE HIM. I TRULY BELIEVE IT WAS BEN AS A TINY BABY.
JER AND ANDREA'S WEDDING WAS FUN WITH ONE COUPLE MARRIED AND THE OTHER ONE ENGAGED. THEN ALL OF THE GRANDKIDS HAVE COUSINS THEIR AGE!
IT TOOK NO COERCION TO GET THIS PICTURE AND IT IS MY TREASURE!
WE HAVE A LOT OF CUTE FAMILY PICTURE OF JER WITH HIS FAMILY....I LOVE THIS ONE!
I THINK TY LOOKS A LOT LIKE JER DID AS A BABY IN HIS PICTURE....GREAT MEMORIES!!!
IN MN. WHEN WILL WAS BORN....LIFE SEEMED SO MUCH MORE SIMPLE THEN. MAYO CLINIC WAS A CALM PLACE FOR JER TO WORK!
THIS WAS A FUN TIME FOR JER AND THE BOYS IN COLORADO WHEN ONE OF THE DOC'S FURNISHED ALL OF THE FISHING GEAR AND TOOK THEM FISHING. THEY HAD A GREAT TIME!
AS PRIESTHOOD ORDINANCES HAVE BEEN PREFORMED....THEY HAVE BEEN SO SPECIAL AS WE KNOW BEN IS THERE TO MAKE THE FAMILY COMPLETE.
THANKS JER AND ANDREA FOR LETTING US GO TO TN WITH YOU LAST JULY. THIS WAS IN OAK RIDGE AT JER'S FIRST APT. IT WAS SO FUN FOR HIM TO SHOW HIS FAMILY WHERE HER HAD SERVED HIS MISSION.
REUNITING WITH MYRA AND MEETING HER DAUGHTER. SHE WAS JER'S NEIGHBOR IN HIS FIRST AREA AND SHE CAME HERE AND SPENT A WEEK WITH US. IT WAS SO GREAT FOR US TO SEE HER!
JER HAS COACHED HIS BOYS IN BASKETBALL AND FOOTBALL. IT HAS BEEN QUITE THE ACCOMPLISHMENT TO COACH AND HAVE 4 DIFFERENT PRACTICES.
.......AND HE HAS COACHED WITH A LOT OF HIS GOOD FRIENDS. HENDERSON HAS BEEN A GOOD PLACE FOR THEIR FAMILY.
AS YOU CAN SEE.....WHEN HE TALKS.....THEY LISTEN. I WISH IT WAS A LITTLE LESS SERIOUS....BUT THEY ARE ALL SO GOOD!
JER HAS ALWAYS BEEN SO GOOD TO ALL OF THE FAMILY. I THINK AUNT RACH HAS A SPECIAL PLACE IN HER HEART FOR HIM!
IN NORMAL JER FASHION.....NOT A TEAR AS HE LEFT TO GO ON HIS MISSION AND I DON'T THINK HE KNOWS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE HOMESICK (WHICH MAKES ME A LITTLE SAD....I DON'T KNOW IF HE EVER MISSES ME). I GUESS IT IS GOOD SINCE HE AND JUSTIN HAVE MOVED ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.
IF JER WILL DO THE INTERVIEW....I WILL DO IT WITH HIM....IF NOT...THESE ARE MY GUESSES.
