I hated saying goodbye to these girls, and all others. You guys made summer the best, and I love you all!
It was so fun having Mark and Ash back this summer! Brady and I loved hanging out with you guys, even when our boating adventures were way too cold to handle!
I miss this boy.
Lily Jules Richards!!! The first little girl in the Richards family was born on August 19. I'm so happy for my sis and her family!
Brady took me up to Bear Lake with his family the week before I left, and it was the perfect ending to a perfect summer. Especially notice the unwashed hair, going on 6 days. He's mastered it.
We came home Sunday morning, and I had a goodbye dinner Sunday night. The whole family was there, and I loved it. There is nothing like my whole family being all together. It was Brady's first experience with everyone, and I'm sure it was quite the experience. I love all of you. I feel so lucky to have been surrounded by you all right before I left
! I think of you all as my best friends and I miss you all like crazy!
Lily Jules!
A typical day for me at home is talking to my sisters and my mom. This has been a hard change for me! You guys are my best friends, and I love you so much!

So now I embrace fall. Yes, the only leaves I see are the crisp dark green leaves that have fallen on my porch. But that porch looks out over Jerusalem, so this fall, I think I will survive without the oranges, reds, browns, yellows, and many other mixtures of colors. But just this once. I miss fall in Utah, and I miss all of you! But I'M IN JERUSALEM!!! I'm grateful everyday, and I feel like I'm dreaming.
My first weeks here, I felt so awkward walking through the city. I didn't know where I was going, I was looking around constantly, it was hot, and I felt lost. Yesterday we got out of the cab and started walking. We continued our conversation, casually and with no pauses for directions. Naturally, we got to where we were going. It's amazing that I am starting to feel at home in Jerusalem. I'm in love with this city.

love the pictures Chic and miss you like crazy. I ran up in the hills yesterday where we ran this summer and I thought about how much I loved that little time with you as the sun was coming up each morning. Sounds like things are going well- I am so happy for you and excited to hear more about your adventures. xoxoxoxoxoxo Jen

First thing.... I LOVE this post. so freaking much. You are too adorable. why is that I can't stop telling you how much I love and look up to you? You are amazing, Juan. Secondly.... that picture? really....? Did you happen to look at me? of all the pictures you could have picked.... and you picked that one. The only reason I am somewhat okay with it- is because that was taken the night that I danced the night away to MJ at The Pie. Tribute to Mj, night. brilliant. And yes.... dear december. please come sooner. Amen to that. I love you! only 2 more months. 2 down, 2 to go. I LOVE YOU JUAN.
