David and I successfully finished another semester of school, and since we work for the school district we have a little 2 week break from work. Both of us are attending summer school and working summer school. We started our summer by taking a trip to Arizona to witness the sealing of Tom and Megan Thorley for time and all eternity. It was a beautiful thing to witness. We had a great time visiting with family and friends. One of David’s old missionary companions, Heath Wilcock, lives in Mesa, Arizona so we were able to meet up with him and his wife Emily at the wedding reception. They are a great couple, it was great to meet them and listen to David and Heath reminisce about their mission in the West Indies.
We left Arizona around 5:00 am Sunday morning and made our way to Lancaster to attend church with the Blair family. It is always great being around the Blair's, Aunt Martha is the best. We love her to pieces. Not only because she made us a delicious dinner and homemade ice cream... but because she is always so kind and fun. While we were in Lancaster we visited Poppy or Coach Reynders. This was actually the first time I got to meet him and talk with him. He is such a cute man, I could feel his sweet spirit just being by him and talking to him. We also went to the hospital and visited Grandma Reynders. She always makes us laugh; it was great to see her again.
Before this wonderful trip, David and I got to see our sisters graduate from Buchanan High. Janet and Nicole are now all grown up and moving on to bigger and better things. Because of this exciting event my sister Vanessa flew in from Canada, where she is living with her husband, and my dad was able to make it home too. It was great to have the entire Murphy's together again. Yesterday, I drove my dad and Vanessa to the Oakland Airport. We had a little time between when my dad left and when Vanessa's flight was to leave, so we spent some time at the Oakland Temple and in the Visitors Center there. We had a lot of fun.
Oh... Our first flower in our garden bloomed! Yeah! Here is a picture ;)
