Boys will be boys!

Having the kids visit in China has brought a few smiles and wrinkles to our faces. The other day Kevin and Paul were out exploring on the "bike". (That is our electric moped for you Americans). Kevin came back to the apartment all excited because they found "the coolest park ever"! He grabbed his camera and rushed out the door. A while later they both came in looking a little sheepish.  Apparently "the coolest park ever" was really a military training site and they were quickly booted off the premises. The next day Kevin decided to take a photo of the guards and was yelled at (apparently that is NOT allowed).  They find trouble wherever they go.  Those two boys will get us kicked out of the country yet!!

Graduation Days!!






It has been a busy year at the Turner Household with four kids in college but we have finally been blessed with two college graduations! Brian graduated Magna Sum Laude in December from BYU - Hawaii with a BA in International Business and a minor in Japanese. He managed to do this while working full time for WASINC too. He and his wife, Cami, have moved back to the head office in Las Vegas and will bless us with our first grandchild in July.

In April, Destiny graduated from BYU - Idaho with a degree in Elementary Education. She is currently considering her teaching options for next fall from Utah, Idaho, Virginia, Texas, Alaska, Arizona and Nevada. She had a great student teaching experience in Las Vegas and was fortunate to get an amazing co-operative teacher.

That makes two down and two to go!!!! There IS light at the end of the tunnel!
