Hamilton Temple

My second week in New Zealand, I drove up to the Hamilton Temple.

It is a 6 hour drive, but well worth the travel and expense to get there.

I love the temple and am so thankful for it and the blessings it brings to my life.

Moving to Wellington

On September 8th I flew into Wellington, New Zealand for my new assignment.

 This is the view from my temporary house.

 Here I am in my temporary house.

 This is Oriental Bay, one of the bays of the Wellington Harbour.

 Isn't the harbour beautiful?

 The park area in Churton Park.

One of the Churton Park conservation areas.  I love how beautiful New Zealand is.

Labor Day Family Reunion

Years ago we started a Neil & Kathy Brewer family tradition of camping each Labor Day weekend

 This was the first time in four years that I got to go.

 

 It was SO wonderful to spend time with family and make wonderful memories.

 I spent quite a bit of my time taking "walks" with my wonderful nieces and nephews.

 They are so cute, I love them tons!

 My little bro and I cooking dinner.

Aren't they so cute?

A lot has happened...

So I got to spend just over two months at home before heading off to my next assignment.

I did some home improvements and my nephew Tyler helped met out, so did my brother Rudger.

My house looks great now!

Then I got to go to lunch with my mom's lovely friends, who I now consider my friends!
