On our way to our home in Palmyra.  Saying goodbye to our home in Salem will be a giant leap of faith, but it is what we know is right, and are looking forward to the next grand adventure on our mission to Palmyra, New Yourk!  Here we go on this next leap of faith!  Hang on tight, and we will enjoy the ride!

Our new grand baby celebrated her 1st birthday and enjoyed her very one cupcake to devour.

She had lots of help from brothers opening her gifts.  I think they had more fun than she did!  A great celebration!

ALong journey home came to an end on Monday night .

Welcome home from our mission was the best !  Memories of Palmyra and those we left behind who have come to be a big part of our lives will always have a special part in our hearts.  This poster welcoming us home made by Lovedones will always bring fond memories of home and family, and those we left behind in Palmyra.

Lots of hug and kisses were shared, with tears galore because we have been so blessed with the best family and friends ever.

Liberty Jail visitor center in Liberty Missouri

The view through prison bars.

A very cold and miserable place that is referred to as the prison Temple because of the many revelations that were received here by the prophet Joseph Smith.  A sad time for the Prophet, but a place of much tutoring for him as well.

We should be home on Tuesday depending on the weather! Yea!

Thanksgiving dinner at the Barney's.

When it comes to a feast the Barneys get the award for perfection!

Welcome home poster made by our granddaughter Claire Barney.  Could not have been more excited to see everyone and get lots of hugs.  It feels like a dream, and I hope I don't wake up.
