Missionary Morning in Millcreek

After Thomas Graham's wedding reception- we had a few house guests stay with us. We couldn't go to bed without a little Rooibos tea.

The next morning we  met in Millcreek Canyon and had a fun breakfast and hike/bike activity afterwards.

Everything about this morning was "Lekker!"

We served three kinds of egg souffles. We also served malva pudding as a breakfast cake.

Perfect weather...perfect number to gather around a table.

Beginning our 6 mile round trip hike up Grandeur Peak

So wonderful to have Saul Hentunen from Finland and Mattias Bergman from Sweden.

Such a perfect weather day in Millcreek Canyon.

Love this guy!

Wedding reception was held in a fun outdoor area adjacent to a ward building in Lehi.

Mark your calendars for another opportunity to gather as former SAJMers. Due to Thomas Graham's wedding on Friday May 26, we will have a few RM's coming from far away (Austin Allen-Washington, Saul Hentunen-Finland and Mattias Bergman- Sweden) 
So, we are planning a canyon breakfast and optional hike and bike on Saturday May 27 at 9 am in Millcreek Canyon. You can meet at the Dunn's home (4045 Mt. Olympus Way) to carpool at 8:30 am or the Park and Ride at 3900 South and Wasatch Blvd. Carpooling is encouraged- $3 fee per car in the canyon. Dutch oven breakfast served at 9 in a campsite in the Church Fork campground- located about 2 miles past the guard gate in MillCreek Canyon.
After breakfast there will be two activities available if interested. For any hikers in the group, Sister Dunn will lead a hike up the spectacular Grandeur Peak (5 miles roundtrip) President Dunn will guide a group of road or mountain bikers up the canyon. (bring your own helmets and bikes)

Let us know if we can expect you and if you are interested in hiking or biking. As always, significant others are welcome to join with you.

Graduation Day

On Saturday May 13th our oldest son Jeff graduated from a Master's Program in Virginia, called the Brand Center. We are so proud of him...and

With his greatest support....Whitney, his darling wife.

 Missionaries graduate when they finish their missions and we celebrate all these transitions. They are exciting times and filled with anxiety as one moves to another stage of life.
