We went home --->



---to see Paul this weekend. Paul just finished a 2-year Spanish speaking Mormon mission in Miami. Paul is the bomb. I think he found being home pretty strange after all that time soaking up Latin culture. Paul is famous for finding space in his lexicon for phrases like 'whole wheat monkey's jockstrap.' We missed him a lot.



My parents live close to the base of Mount Rainier (on purpose) because they love to hike so much. So that is what we did.










My mama.




Mels, the Johnson who doesn't love to hike, cooked us all the most delectable Sunday soup.


And little Abby brought cousins we love, a cherished Aunt and Uncle and all sorts of merriment with her.

Paul looks great. I think he's coming my way for a visit soon. I can't wait to see him. Lovely pictures Em.

Mels is smart enough to know that the good Lord made horses so you wouldn't have to kill yourselves hiking (or biking) up mountains!

By the way -- welcome home Paul!
