We met a woman from Bejing as we were waiting and also Sister Crookston came up and was alone so we all sat together. First we thought it was free and tried to get in, then had to go find where to buy a ticket. Paul and Sabrina Dai went to get her luggage from customer service and we all met back and watched the program. Afterwards we took Sabrina to her B&B, which I don't think she would have ever found at that time of night. She works for John Deer in Bejing and often gets to travel. She said she had been in Burley a few times with work. She was going skydiving the next morning. She had been on the big island and I saw her facebook pictures this morning and she has seen and done many things. Pretty amazing to travel by yourself. She is 40.

Saturday at the temple Paul got to follow the 9 am session and then we both got to help with a wedding and sealing of three children. The Cobb family from Waienea Ward. They had a 8 year old who was baptized Friday, then a 2 and a 6 months daughter who were sealed and she was going to be blessed on Sunday. A marvelouos day.
Sunday was Fast Sunday and we attended the Koneohe Ward where President and Sister Aki attend. Also many of our temple workers are from there. A short testimony meeeting but Paul was able to bear his testimony. A great SS class taught by Colleen Ta'o. Onour way home we stopped to visit with Jerome Pollard who is in the hosptial. He has had major problems with us back. They had him in the wrong VA so he had to come home and be readmitted. While home he broke his leg so now more problems. He received a beautiful blessing and knows he will be healed and continue his good work here on the earth. He and his wife, Margarot, are wonderful people. They serve on Tuesday day. We also spoke with the Lunnens. They are holding their own. His count is going up again so the chemo they are using has outlived its life and they are looking for anothere one. Maybe another 8 months which is really good because when they left the mission they said he had 6 -12 months left. He has surpassed that.
Kaylee got to go to the temple this last week. So proud of her and the great job she is doing. Our time is all running short. Hard to believe we will all be home soon ready for more to go.
Paul and I are trying to get over our ears being plugged from our flu or cold bout. Got some medicine yesterday, prednezone, a steroid, I am taking. Hope it works. I just remember that is what Grandma Lewis took which blew her up like a baloon. Oh and on a happy note, it was Grandpa Lewis's 105th birthday on the 4th. A great man who did many wonderful things for us while living with us those ten years.
Have a great week. Remember who you are and that Heavenly Father loves us so very much and will take us from wherever we are to a most glorious place to live with Him if we are willing. Choose the Right always.
