A Week To Remember

Wow...I thought I posted this weeks ago....ha oops

The second week in October was one I will never forget...Chito and Michelle were going to be married Saturday, October 15th, but our family had no idea just how special the week leading up to the 15th would actually be.  Early Wednesday morning Allie called me and said that she was on her way to the post office because her mission call had finally arrived!  She had been IMPATIENTLY waiting for a few weeks for it to come.  When she opened it we were all so excited to see that she had been called to the Peru, Lima Central Mission!

This is very exciting because our Dad is from Peru and she will be teaching quite close to where he grew up!  We couldn't believe it...little Allie going on a mission and all the way to PERU!  I am thrilled...she will be a wonderful missionary and will be able to teach people that she already has a connection to.  She will enter the Provo MTC in February and a few weeks later will transfer to the MTC in Peru before she gets to her mission.  That same day we were blessed to be able to go to the Temple with Michelle for her first time.

Friday morning Damon went to play with Aunt Donna and Trey while Allie went to the Temple for the first time. Saturday morning we drove to the Salt Lake Temple to see Michelle and Chito sealed. The wedding was beautiful and the weather cooperated wonderfully for their special day.  We took pictures at the Temple with the new Mr. & Mrs. Capunay and then drove to Midway for their luncheon and reception. Michelle planned the most beautiful reception!  The lighting, decorations and music were amazing!  They had a photo booth set up with frames so that people could take pictures-I loved it.  She should definitely plan events for a living...my pictures don't do the place justice. It was great to see so many friends and family that we don't get to see regularly.  CONGRATULATIONS CHITO AND MICHELLE!


Needless to say it was quite the eventful week!  We are so blessed to have so many wonderful things happening all at the same time!


 Oh Yeah!
