Sounds like a second date to me!

Even with My Plan helping to ease the transition back from missionary life, the first few dates are almost always awkward. 

Sketchbook: It's a tie!

Missionaries often go to great lengths to protect their neckwear when dining. We've had several in our home who tuck the tie into their shirt, some who wear napkins like a bib, and one who slides his tie around to the back of his shirt. And upon more than one occasion, we've had to remind him to move it around to the front before he left our home.

Tuppence a gag

There's always that one companion.

Counting your blessings

And Sis. Kerry Jo has good reason to count her blessings — Vol. 2 of her mission blog is now in print! Vol. 1 ended with her arrival in the mission field; Vol. 2 follows her adventures as she adjusts to life as a missionary! The First Transfer is the Hardest is available for purchase on Amazon!

It's a good time for publishing by Latter-day Saint cartoonists: Ward Cartoonist Arie Van De Graaff has a new book out, too: Scripture Power Activity Book. It's perfect for church, home or the back seat of the car. Check it out!

The season is upon us

I wonder if this means we have Eve to blame/credit for all things pumpkin spice?

A time to remember

It seems like it's time to roll this one out again.

Every creature

I'm convinced that practically every missionary has a cat story. My experience was a lot like this one — I was so covered in cat leftovers that I had to go home and shower and change after our lesson.
