Big Week for the Family..

Mike was released as Bishop of the Ward..

It has been five years.

In some ways a short five years.

My favorite scripture in Doctrine and Covenants 84:88

... I will be on your right hand and on your left,
and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up.

Sums up the last five years...Our family has been supported by angels...
We have been blessed while Mike has served.
We are grateful for a wonderful ward and happy we will still be here.
Now we are onto something new in life - Not sure what, but we know it will be an adventure!

This was a typical scene in the last five years... Mike standing afar on the phone.

AND also this week...

Sam celebrated his one year mark by burning one of his lovely shirts!

We just can't express enough our gratitude to your whole family for the service you have given over the past 5 years. Mike was a wonderful Bishop and we are going to miss him! But we are so happy for you to get to have him home more often! :)
