    Rumour has it, the Summerfields are moving to Hawaii.

    Well, guess what?
    It's true!

    Dude.

    So yeah, the newly commissioned Lieutenants Summerfield will be the Corps Officers of the Hilo Temple Corps. 
    Sweet!

    I survived the weekend, barely.  Really, I don't recall being so exhausted mentally, emotionally, etc....okay, I do, but this time was harsh.  Going outside after the appointment service was intense...there were so many people hugging me, giving advice, and taking pictures.  I appreicate all the love - but I can barely remember any of it!  I was essentially a deer in the headlights.

    Anyway, it's been neat as we talk and learn more about Hilo and the corps.  It's a trip when we say stuff, "we have..." or "our corps..." and stuff.  Exciting!

    So I really don't want to type more.
    I am way tired. 
    My family is here - and today we spent the day at Knott's, which incidentally, is a good place for young kids - I had fun at Camp Snoopy with my nieces.

    So much to say - but lacking brain cells and motivation.
    Must.
    Pack.
    But.
    Sleep.
    Better.

    I will post some pics on Facebook.

    Congrats...and all that...we will be talking (and listening!) more down the road.  Every place has its blessings and pitfalls...and of course challenges. So it now begins...

    Your are really going to enjoy that Corps. My husband and I did our summer assignment there like 8 years ago, and fell in love with it. I don't know you personally, but I did know your Brother in Law Clark pretty well as his Corps Officer in Phoenix (our first appointment). So enjoy your first appointment it will be such a blessing for you, and I am happy for you both.
