Sister Olsen

It takes a certain determination and faith to make certain sacrifices. Sam's little sister, made the decision to sacrifice a year and a half of her time to serve a mission. We have all been so excited for her, knowing that by her example and testimony she will be able to touch the lives of many people in a very special way. On Sunday Most of our family got together to wish her well and see her off before she flew out to the MTC on Monday. It was so great to have so many people gathered together showing her their support. Wednesday marked her first day in the MTC, and we just can't wait to hear how she is doing.

Congrats Sister Katie Olsen.... you are going to take the Washington DC-South Mission by storm!!




Lime Light

I always enjoy witnessing my siblings talents. There is always something special about seeing the ones you love accomplish something they feel is important.

My youngest brother has (in the past few years) developed a knack for acting. It started with Lip Sync contests, and now has moved to school plays. Lovell Middle School put on a mini production of the Fairest Flower of the South, where Cole played the demented, yet charming Col. Cullpepper. It was so much fun watching his character come to life as he swaggered around the set voicing monologues traced with a well done southern accent. The crowd was small, but the laughter and applause that Col. Cullpepper received was not.


Take a bow little brother!
