We spent the weekend in Bodø for District Conference. It was wonderful to spend time with our missionaries and members there.
Elder Mickelson and Elder Stephens.
We had a middag on Saturday night. This was delicious!
We love transfer week! It is fun to greet our new missionaries at the airport and see the excitement on thier faces as they realize they have finally made it to Norway! We love these 3 Elders already and enjoyed spending 20 hours with them before sending them off to their first areas.
These are 3 tall Elders! We had an easy time picking them out of the crowd!
Elder Collett, Elder Briggs, Elder Dawes, President Hill, Elder Potter, Elder Daly and Elder Broadbent.
Our Assistants….Elder Daly and Elder Broadbent (who joins us this transfer) and Elder Potter on his last night before heading to his new assignment in Bergen.
Finding out their first area….always a highlight of the night!
Learning the tricks from the assistants!
Letting their families know they arrived safe!
A little trainig the next morning when they are more awake.
With the assistants…
They had to get in on the action…
Saying goodbye until the First Transfer Training!
A few hours later we welcomed these 3 great missionaries to the mission home for their departure dinner. Elder Gingrich, Elder Bunnell, and Elder Phipps have finished their service in Norway!
Elder Gingrich worked so hard that the buttons fell right off his suit 🙂
Jumping for joy!
A beautiful Norwegian sunset!
Ha det bra! We will miss you in Norway!
Elder Bunnell is known throughout Norway by members and missionaries for his wonderful talent! He made us this reindeer origami. Pretty amazing!

Even when my man-child isn’t in the photos, I still appreciate and love your blog! So fun to see the comings and goings of the sweet missionaries!
I love love love this! They look so happy. Thank you for sharing these wonderful pictures and for taking care of our boy(s).
We never tire of looking at these photos! Thank you so much for taking the time to post pictures. Glad they arrived safely and are happy.
How wonderful it is to see their happy smiling faces! And the sky is blue and the sun is shining 🙂 Norway is so lucky to have them serve there. I bet Elder Collett was super surprised and tremendously excited when he learned of his first area. We sure are. I need to get some referrals sent his way. I appreciate being able to follow my missionary through this blog. Tusen hjertlig takk!
Thank you for you blog! I love reading about all the happenings there in Norway. Thank you also for the love and care you give all the missionaries. They are in good hands.
So nice to see pictures of Elder Broadbent! If he gets out of line, send him to Sister Brostrom. 🙂
Thank you for sharing the joy of these wonderful missionaries!!!
