We have had a wonderful weekend thus far.  Yesterday we were able to Skype with Jacob and Liangzi before he goes into the Army for Basic Training.  He seems ready and excited about going in.  I think it gives him a sense of security that he will be able to have a job  that will provide for his family.  He has always liked being part of something bigger then him and being a force for what he believes.  He loves and believes in his country and wants to do his part to maintain freedom. 

Today in Sacrament meeting we had the annual primary program.  The little girls were all dressed up with flowers in their hair and the boys all wore white shirts and red ties.  They all sang beautifully and performed their parts so well.  It is amazing it is so easy to understand the children. 

You can see that spring is here and from the temperature summer is on it's way.  This is a picture of some of the temple gardens outside of our hotel window.
