So many good things happened in 2010! The start of 2011 is here and unfortunately we have encountered a little hiccup to dampen the beginning of it. 

At present, Maverick is in Hawaii finishing up his last semester while Hyrum and I stay in New Zealand.

So we decided to stay and wait in New Zealand rather than risk consequences as said on my previous post.

Although we will be apart for the first few months of 2011, I have high hopes that everything will be okay.

We just got to count our many blessings and pray that the processing doesnt take very long.

Hope you had a great Christmas and a had a happy New Year!
