Eyyon's.....March 25-26, 2011

Sam served his mission in Riverside, California. He has some very DEAR friends that still live near there, The Eyonn's. We wanted to visit them before we headed home from Disneyland. They live about 30 Min's away.

We stayed a couple of days with Mark and Pam. We had a wonderful time visiting with them. It's fun for me to watch Sam get gitty about his mission. He has so many wonderful memories of his mission. The missionary work in their area is very strong and active. It's neat to see how the members are so very close. They treat everyone like family.

Mark and Pam have such a strong spirit about them. They are full of love, generosity, service, and compassion. You can't help but feel at home with them when you around them. They are so much fun to be around.

They took the kids to Tom's Farm on Saturday. They got to ride some tractors, go down a big blow up slide, eat some kettle corn, and even wear a silly hat. They had fun.

After, we went to lunch then headed back to their home. Their daughters friends husband had planned a Huge surprise 30th Luau Birthday Party for her at the Eyonn's home. When we arrived back to their home the kids played some basket ball, air hockey, and soccer. Sam helped set a few things for the party and I did some grocery shopping, getting ready to head back for home the next day.

It was a fun party. They had Hawaiian dancers, a roasted pig, and lots of GOOD food. It was amazing. The dancers were very entertaining.
