Saturday afternoon my oldest nephew Preston, returned home from serving a mission for the LDS church. He served in Mexico City, Mexico for 2 years. It was so fun to be at the airport and see him walk toward this big group of family and not recognize anyone! I guess things change in 2 years! After the airport, per Preston's request- we went to Filbertos for lunch. You'd think after living in Mexico you wouldn't want Mexican food, but apparently what we know as Mexican food , is not what is served in Mexico City.
Sunday he gave his report in church, along with his brother Brighton, who gave his farewell address! Brighton will be leaving in about a week and half to serve a mission in London, England.
It was a good experience to hear both of them speak and bear their testimonies about what they know to be true. It reminded me so much of my mission, and the Spirit I had and felt while I served. It was very much a spiritual nudge, to remind me of the peace and knowledge that comes from doing the things daily that invite the Spirit into your life.
Welcome Home Preston!
Good Luck Brighton!
