Our TWO Missionaries!

We have been Doubly blesssed this past year to have not One but TWO Missionaries out in the field. Cameron only has two months left until he will return home, and Courtney will be out one year in October. It has been crazy, yet wonderful to have them able to serve missions this past year. I am such a slacker on blogging this summer, so I thought I would share some of their recent pictures they have sent home.

Here is Elder Leavitt and his recent baptism, it fell just one day before his birthday and that was the best gift he recieved this year,

Here is Sister Leavitt with her past companions. They were able to make COOKIES a few months ago, she was so excited to be able to make them, even though they tasted different from the ones she makes at home.

Sister Leavitt and companions enjoying the BBQ on the beach. She said that she loved that the men did all the cooking. The Main meat is called Shashilk.

Here she is near one of the many mouments in Volgograd. There are alot of mouments here because there was a huge battle here, and the Russian's are very proud of it.

Sister Leavitt and Aneka, the little girl in her branch that Courtney helped name Kandace's new puppy after (Ollyonka). Courtney loves little kids and they love her too!

Elder Leavitt celebrated his 21st Birthday on August 7th, and the people in the branch threw a feast for him. He said that now his stomach is smaller, he couldn't eat as much, but it was a delicious meal.

Yum...Yum...One of the members sent home a plate of deep fried cock roaches for Cameron to eat. He said it wasn't that bad and tasted alot like shrimp, only crunchy. Oh the fun he is having trying different foods.

Here he is just being silly. Striking a pose for mom. Isn't he soo handsome???

This is a Russian sunset. Cameron sent us a picture that looks almost the same from the Philippines. Such beauty all over the world.

Sister Leavitt and her new Russia companion Sister Undozyoriva. She loves her new companion.

Courtney's new companion goofing off.....I am sure Courtney taught her this trick!

And this is Sister Leavitt and all the missionaries in her district at her last meeting. Our missionaries are doing great, and LOVE the people they are serving. It is a joy to hear from them on "Missionary Monday" and learn of the many things they have done each week. We are soo proud of our Missionaries, and know that we are blessed because of the hard work they are doing.
