We had a perfect time in Kauai. I was able to play the Prince Course three times and Popui Bay Course once. Mom took the catamaran with the Caywoods and Mary Ellen and had a great time going down the Na Pali Coast. She saw several dolphins. We kayaked, went to marvelous beaches, saw the Grand Canyon of Hawaii, ate well, went on a gorgeous ATV 3 hour ride and enjoyed the 2-3 a.m rooster crows outside our condominium every morning. We were convinced the rooster, who had a brood of hens, was on Utah time and not 4 hours earlier in Kauai. He woke us up every morning hours before we wanted to be awake. Here we are at Barking Sands Beach. I am the skinny one.
We are doing well here. The 4 boys at home are all on the honor roll this first term and we are working hard every Saturday raking, piling, and processing leaves. The fall leaves work is in full scale production; from Halloween until the first weekend of December, we have at least one overflowing trailer full of green and brown waste to take to the green plant in Springville. We hired Lorenzo's son and grandson to help us yesterday. We filled the trailer twice. We spent 6 hours and had a lot of complaining, but had T Bone Chinese food to end the day. Lorenzo's son, Miguel, has started taking the missionary lessons from the Spanish elders after mom sent his name to the missionary department during the Hill Cumorah weeks.
Dallin has been home from Snow College an average of every two weeks. He is doing well in school and having a great time there. Ashley is enjoying her new life in Idaho.
I marvel at how the Lord has blessed Landon in his first area: regular teaching, a good companion, faithful, charitable and generous members, new converts, several serious investigators, and the chance to read the scriptures. I can't imagine anything better for a first area. He has gained 15 pounds which means he better go back to eating Raimen noodles and work out on P day. Hailey is loving Jerusalem so much that she never writes us. She said if it wasn't for her family, she would live there. Thanks a lot Hailey.
Love, us

And we thought that Palmyra was paradise!!! :) Maybe Hawaii is just a different kind of paradise.
Is the same son that you talk about a "first area" the same one that you were so concerned about at Cumorah? That's great if he made it back out!
Fun to hear about Hailey having the opportunity to go to Jeruselem!
Thanks for the updates!
Anyone that goes to Cumorah together will forever and always be family! :)
Love, Linda :)

Linda is wondering if Cumorah is under three feet of snow, if I suddenly ran away there right now...
Welcome to the blog world! Jeff and family
Your fast-paced schedule exhausts me. I have learned that it is a foreign concept to Kevin that vacations are for relaxation. It is fun to hear about the kids.
Kevin - Good job - you seem to have it down already! I am so glad you had such a great time on your trip and your family is all doing so well -

So fun to catch up on your family! Where is your son on his mission? My parents just went on their 3rd mission - I'm going to have to nail my dad's feet to the floor when they get back from this one! They are in Argentina, and it seems like you had a son there as well... maybe I'm remembering wrong...
Take care and welcome to the blogging world! (It gets addicting! - our blog is jerryandjen.blogspot.com)
I just realized that you only have the 4 BOYS at home!! That is crazy!! When does Hailey get back??
Kevin & Michelle - I love your new blog. I'm proud of you and now you can teach me to create one. Then can we send out Christmas postcards with our blog address on it and never send them out again? It would sure save on postage but then we'd lose track of lots of friends, I guess. And I like getting the Christmas cards. Gotta get to bed. Happy Thanksgiving! Love, Sexy Momma Tuft, the Sister Wife (Oh, did I say something wrong?)
