After our grandsons visited Jordan, our eldest granddaughter, Sierra, also paid us a visit. We were thrilled to have her sweet and happy spirit in our home. The Jordanians loved her as well, of course. She helped to teach a primary class while playing her ukulele, we attended a fun Jordanian cooking class, and we made another trek down to Petra. Very busy times indeed!

We have had an extremely busy summer. July started off with our first family visit! Spencer’s three oldest boys came to work as counselors for the summer camp here. J, Sam and Knox were very helpful and the kids loved hosting them. Spencer and Kristin joined the boys for the last week of their trip, after spending a few days in Israel. They also went to Paris on the way home. We were so happy to have our first visitors!
