Terry was the Mission President to over 550 missionaries. So in order to keep them in our lives we have decided to keep this blog going after the mission at their request.

We opened another Jamba Juice store that is up and running.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is in the Chandler Mall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is on the Food Court level.... Level 2</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Half way between the Food Court and Nordstroms</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is our 7th store we have opened and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we are working on our Scottsdale mall store which</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
will be coming soon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We have been doing Jamba Juice for about 18 years now.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so that we could go to dinner and catch up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is my brother Ross Junior. I think I told you about him </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a little while back on the blog.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He was diagnosed with brain cancer almost a year ago.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was an aggressive cancer and we thought we would</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
only have between three to six months with him.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He passed away Saturday the 5th.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He was actually quite well the whole time</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
since the diagnoses. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The ending was peaceful and sweet with his family surrounding him</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in love and unity.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0KkxIrz9Osw/Ve0Y0e0TKII/AAAAAAAAXyo/3pmSYuyXJH8/s1600/338036_10150796286934186_1913098706_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0KkxIrz9Osw/Ve0Y0e0TKII/AAAAAAAAXyo/3pmSYuyXJH8/s640/338036_10150796286934186_1913098706_o.jpg" width="610" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We will miss Ross. He has a giant personality.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am jealous that he is now with our own earthly father</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and all those that have gone before us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Much love to my older brother Ross.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You were much too young to go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

A temple for St. George was announced on 9 November 1871 by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigham_Young" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Brigham Young">Brigham Young</a> and was dedicated on 6 April 1877. Even though the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_Lake_Temple" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Salt Lake Temple">Salt Lake Temple</a> had been announced and commenced years earlier (1847 and 1853), construction on that temple was not completed until 1893. The St. George Temple was built to satisfy the church's immediate need for an appropriate place for temple ceremonies and ordinances. Because of the pressing need, the building's groundbreaking ceremony was held on the day the temple was announced. It was the third to be completed by the church and the first one in Utah.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-visitors_center_1-0" style="display: inline-block; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._George_Utah_Temple#cite_note-visitors_center-1" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap;">[1]</a></sup></div>

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigham_Young" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Brigham Young">Brigham Young</a> chose a 6-acre (24,000 m<sup style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 1;">2</sup>) plot as the temple site. Builders soon discovered that the chosen site was swampy with numerous underground streams. Young was consulted on moving the site, but he remained firm in the idea that this was the site for the temple. To deal with the swampy site, workers created drains to eliminate as much water as possible. Then they brought lava rock to the site and crushed it into a gravel to create a dry foundation for the temple. This led to a new problem: how to crush the rock. Someone suggested using an old cannon that the city had acquired. After creating a pulley system, the cannon was used as a pile driver to compact the lava rock and earth and create a firm foundation.</div>
<div style="color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
The old cannon has an interesting history. It was made in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="France">France</a> and used by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleon" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Napoleon">Napoleon</a> during his <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_invasion_of_Russia" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="French invasion of Russia">siege on Moscow</a>. During Napoleon’s hasty retreat, however, the cannon was left behind. It was later dragged to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siberia" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Siberia">Siberia</a>, then <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Alaska">Alaska</a>, and finally ended up at a fort in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="California">California</a>. Members of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormon_Battalion" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Mormon Battalion">Mormon Battalion</a> acquired the cannon, had it mounted on wheels, and brought it to Utah. Today, the old cannon is displayed on the St. George temple grounds.</div>

After stabilizing the foundation, work began on the structure. The walls of the temple were built of the red sandstone common to the area and then plastered for a white finish. Local church members worked for over five and a half years to complete the temple. Historians <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_B._Allen_(historian)" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="James B.

The workers opened new rock quarries, cut, hauled and planed timber, and donated one day in ten as tithing labor. Some members donated half their wages to the temple, while others gave food, clothing and other goods to aid those who were working full-time on the building. Women decorated the hallways with handmade rag carpets and produced fringe for the altars and pulpits from Utah-produced <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Silk">silk</a>. At its completion, it contained 1,000,000 board feet (2,000 m<sup style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 1;">3</sup>) of lumber, which had been hand-chopped and hauled between 40 and 80 miles (60 and 100 km). They also used 17,000 tons of volcanic rock and sandstone, hand-cut and hauled by mule teams.</div>
<div style="color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
In honor of the temple, the church's April 1877 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Conference_(LDS_Church)" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="General Conference (LDS Church)">General Conference</a> was held there. The temple dedication ceremony took place on 6 April 1877. Young presided and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_H._Wells" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Daniel H. Wells">Daniel H. Wells</a>, his second counselor, gave the dedicatory prayer. The St. George Temple was the only temple completed while Brigham Young was president. Shortly after the dedication and the conference, Young returned to Salt Lake and died on 29 August 1877, at age 76.</div>

After remodeling of the interior, the temple was rededicated on 11 November 1975.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-official_2-0" style="display: inline-block; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._George_Utah_Temple#cite_note-official-2" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap;">[2]</a></sup></div>

I called my daughter to tell her about my tree saving </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and she was yelling at me out in the rain as she was </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
trying to get her trampoline out of a tree...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is her trampoline that flew over that brick fence and into this tree...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We thought that the worst was over and then it hit us</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
all again after we got all of our trees anchored and tied up....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We will have to do it all again tomorrow morning!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He received his call to Argentina, Buenos Aires South mission.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are all dear friends and have learned to work together </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on the court and off the court to be great examples to those around them.</div>

While we were up in Utah for Uaisele's wedding</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we were able to hit some of our favorite spots...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Temple Square is a must even if we were only walking through.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Salt Lake Temple is closed right now or we would</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
have done a session.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We had to go to my sacred spot... the Salt Lake Cemetery.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to see if Elder Perry was buried there </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but he was buried in Logan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But we did visit some of the prophets while we were there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This sign is on the back of the tall Hinckley monument</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love it!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We ate lunch at the Lion House... "Oh those Rolls"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had just sat down to enjoy our meal when the fire alarm</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
starts to blare and the lights were flashing...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We just kept eating and then finally they came and escorted us out...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As we were about to exit... all of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the chefs were coming out of the kitchen at the same time and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lo and behold...</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Elder Stockton Nye shoots out in front of us...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We hugged him and laughed..."Oh it was you who started the fire?"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and he said... "Nope, it wasn't me this time!"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So great to see you Elder Nye..</div>

We go to Brigham City to visit our dear friends the Walkers<br />
and this time we made them take us to another<br />
one of my favorite cemeteries.<br />
I needed to see where President Boyd K. Packer was buried.<br />
<br />
His headstone is not there yet but you can see the outline<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Seven years ago I had my nephew Adam living with me for a year</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
while his parents were serving in Uruguay.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Adam brought over his tongan friends Uaisele Fa</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and Ben Mataele and my life changed...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We started singing, taping and arranging songs and that lead to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
teaching kids ukulele lessons</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here was one of our first videos</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that we shot when they were in high school</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Everyone thinks that they were missionaries but </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that was not the case.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This video has over a half a million hits</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and has been one of the Deseret News top ten videos several times...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Uaisele just got married yesterday </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so they are now all returned missionaries </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and married with families of their own...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love you all!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When my daughter Molly had her baby Sabrina... I wasn't blogging.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I am catching up so that it is included in my blog books.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sabrina was born on April 10th... She is 3 months old now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
wore for their blessings.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't have Terry's mission pictures scanned and loaded in the computer</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but his companion emailed this picture so I thought </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I would put it up for all of Terry's missionaries to see....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1982</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You know what he always has told you about his mission in his youth....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It gave him a great foundation for the rest of his life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everything good and great in his life has come from serving </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
an honorable mission in his youth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We want all of our missionaries to know how much we love you...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Please if you have made a mistake or fallen... pick yourself back up </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and run to Heavenly Father... Repent properly and start again....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't delay.. Happiness comes from living close to the Spirit</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and by doing His will.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will never have peace and joy until you do what you know</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is right and true!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
DO WHAT IS RIGHT....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
great consequences will follow!</div>

We have been home for two years now from our mission which doesn't seem possible.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So it was the perfect time to go back to our beautiful Trujillo</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to see the dedication of this magnificent Temple.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
