Elder and Sister Anderson arrived here about 4 pm Saturday, very much relieved to make their final destination. We met at the church and showed them the employment office and then took them to their extended stay motel. I think they were feeling a little overwhelmed, but after today, I really think they feel it. We went to the Mission 1st Ward today and they were greeted very warmly. I had lunch for them and we were able to acquaint them with the apartment as they will be staying here after we leave. They are a great couple and it is amazing how quickly we can bond with someone we meet for the first time. They are in their seventies and seem to be in good health. Sister Anderson will continue with the piano lessons, which I am so grateful for, and if these 'munchkins' don't see how blessed they are to be able to continue with this opportunity, I will be so disappointed. I am having a piano recital on Wednesday so the students can meet her and she them; I hope they practice!!!! Starting Monday, we will be doing all the computer/office training, missionary inspection route, meeting Pres. and Sister Miller, Zone Conference, and whatever else they will need to know. It is an awful BIG BITE to be given in a weeks time, but we know the Lord will bless them beyond what they think they can because He did with us. It is a wonderful thing to have the Lord on your side!

We should be in Caliente on March 6th and I already have a babysitting date with my grandkids. I am so excited to see Cooper, other than on skype, and all the family we can visit as we travel through Utah. Our twins Aidan and Ahston and all the grandchildren have probably grown so much. We are just excited!

See ya soon,
With love,
Los Averys
