Our life in the Welch home has been busy, exciting, and fun!
The girls all started another school year. Emily is in her Senior year at Viewmont High School and just celebrated her 18th birthday, Lizzy started her Sophmore year and is now enjoying the freedom of driving. Anna started 7th grade at Farmington Jr. High, and Becca has started 3rd grade at Farmington Elementary.
We welcomed Elder Welch home on August 24 from the Lima Peru Central Mission. We waited at the airport for hours (mom didn't want to be late). That wait seemed longer than his whole mission seemed! We were able to enjoy a lunch at Joy Luck and then we were able to have the sacred and spiritual experience of him being released as an honorable missionary. That night we celebrated with family and friends and listend to story after story from his mission. It has been wonderful to have him home. He left 3 days later for Utah State where he is going to school this semester.
Emily and Lizzy were both asked to the Homecoming dance this year. They looked very cute in their dresses and had a great time. They were both in the same group. They went to "The Garden" for dinner and went bowling the night before for their activity. It was Lizzy's first date and she was VERY nervous!!
Mom and Emily just got back from a short trip out to Ohio. They went to visit Nikki and Darrin and then spent the weekend in Cincinnati with Nikki, Grandma Despain, and two of moms sisters (Jaimee and Aleta). They went to Time Out for Women. It was great to spend time in Ohio and have a mini vacation!
Stay tuned for more adventures from the Welch home! We are always busy with some activity!
