More Utah!!

Here is some of what happened besides the mission reunion in Utah...

Gabi was able to meet up with her friends Serginho and Mariane and they went out on the town to a little Brazilian Restaurant close by.

I always tell Gabi she has a great singing voice, and she finally had a chance to show off her skills.

They took some final pictures before saying goodbye until the next time we would be up in Utah.

Since we don't gamble, we went to the cheaper nickel arcade to test our skills. And just so you know I didn't do very good so I won't have any problems with addiction. It was fun and knowing it was cheaper than quarters or dollars made me feel better about the whole thing. Anyway the Snicker Bars that we got were tasty, but still more expensive than just buying them.

This trip was also an opportunity for us to see Nolan and Keree after the new addition to their family came, and he likes me already.


Here's a cute one of Chelsea with the cute little boy Perry.

Bryan's mission reunion!!

Missao Brasil Ribeirao Preto had a reunion mid June and I just had to go and show off my wife and see my friends from so long ago. They had it at the This is the Place Memorial Park in Salt Lake City inside of one of the little houses there. It was definitely weird at first, but still awesome to be able to see good friends in a different setting. Some are married, some have kids, and the single ones are still searching. I'm not sure when we'll have another one, so I got in a little of trouble for going because it was such an important event for me, but it was worth it for sure!!!

Here is a group picture of most everyone that was there, some left before we took this. I guess they didn't get the memo, or completely forgot the eternal rule to take pictures before departure. Anyway, it's all good stuff!

Next to us are Josh and Cristianne Wall, who chose the same type of marriage opportunity. Both Josh and I decided to go foreign so we could get the good ones!!

My buddy Ricky and I as we remember the good old days when we did splits while walking the streets of Sao Jose do Rio Preto. This was awesome because Ricky couldn't do a serious picture since he was laughing and smiling too much. He is such a nice guy, and the only reason he isn't taken yet is because he's caught up too much in his studies. But he's getting to the end and now we are waiting for his wedding so we can get together again!!

In this picture we have my Mission President Simplicio and his wife, Doug (featured in the next picture), Jacob and Suzanne Leatham (almost married) and the cute couple on the left is US!!

Us, Doug, his wife Shauna, and their cute new addition Juliann. We were on the same plane to Brazil in August of 2001, and we even got to be companions for a little while. But he did give me some bad news this day....they are moving far away, out of Utah.
