We had a most fantastic time with our Son Levi, our daughter-in-love Rebecca, and their children, Isaac, Eliza, Noah, and Henry. They came July 2nd and with tears in our eyes dropped them off at the airport on July 9th. We were in the ocean every day they were here except on Sunday. They got to share some of our beautiful places here in Samoa with us. We visited Palolo Deep, Namua Island, Vavau Beach, Togitogia Waterfall, and the giant clam sanctuary. We saw fire-dancers, ate Samoan food, and cooked on an umu. They saw giant flying foxes, geckos, and tropical fish! They made their own lava lavas. They got to sing hymns in Samoan and share some time in the temple with us. We loved having them here and enjoyed every second. It was all summed up with Henry's exclamation, "I want to be a white Samoan!"

We sent them off to return to California with a few souvenirs and all of our love to give to our family back home as they have the Joe & Janice Lloyd family reunion without us. It thrills us to know they want to still get together without us. We look forward to a family picture all in their matching shirts this weekend! We love them so!
