MISSIONARY REFLECTIONS IN JERSEY.......

















Jack and I were not able to pick Dustin up from his mission so our dream has been to take him back and see the area he served in....Cherry Hill Mission in New Jersery! So we picked Dustin and Cassie up in Connecticutt where they had been at a family reunion (Cassie's dad's side of family) and July 5th started at the top of Dustin's mission. Actually Connecticutt was beautiful and someday we will spend more time there. New Jersey was beautiful and we got to visit all Dustin's old apartments, where the mission home WAS, places he'd ate at, P-day favorites, where he'd shopped, and most importantly people he'd known. Dustin even remembered the first door he'd knocked on......The most beautiful spot was Cape May in the most southern part of New Jersey right on the Atlantic Ocean. It was full of beautiful Victorian Homes and white sandy beaches. It's a very clean state and most neighborhoods were full of American flags flying on poles, in yards, drapes around decks and everywhere! Little Kenzie even touched her toes into the Atlantic...at Pirates Day in Westport a couple of weeks before she'd touched her toes in the Pacific.
