Justin Watson Down on His Knee - Lani Says "Yes"

Hey this is Justin Watson. President Colton asked me at the reunion how serious Lani and me were getting. I couldn't tell him I was proposing the next day. She said yes and we plan on getting married in May.

We hope to see many of you at our reunion.  Please let me know if you plan to attend.  The time since our service together is passing by quickly and we would love to get the latest update on your lives.  It seems that many of you are passing through the channels of school in Utah and beginning to venture to all corners of the world.  Let us see you before you journey too far!

Please post this notice on your Facebook page and pass the information along to all the former FTM missionaries you are in touch with.  I do not have all the email addresses and so I am counting on you for your help.

You might want to send me pictures of you and your growing families to my email address - kacolton1@gmail.com.  We also love seeing those of you who have not yet made the big jump into matrimony.  Don't feel that you have to have some big life event happen before sending in an update.  We are interested in all facets of your lives.

Senior Missionaries!  We will plan to have lunch at the Chuck-A- Rama as we did last year.  We will meet there at 1:00 p.m.  on Friday, October 4th, 2013 (the afternoon of the reunion).  Please let me know by September 1, 2013 if you are planning to be there so I can reserve the appropriate space for us.  The address is:

Word from Jennifer Briscoe

I just wanted to send you an update on what is going on for me. I currently have 3 callings/ assignment. The one that I have had the longest is the Relief Society Secretary in my ward. I was also recently called to be the Employment Specialist, which is very ironic since I myself am looking for a job! Also I was asked to serve as an Ordinance Worker in the Rexburg Idaho Temple. That has been quite a challenge for me as I haven't tried to memorize anything for quite a while. But I am slowly making progress through each of the different ordinances. I am also part of a Singles Stake that encompasses 16 Family Stakes. My Stake President is Edwin Sexton,  and he told me that he remembers you, President Colton, from when he was a Stake President in Virginia. We just had an amazing Stake Conference last weekend. I am also having some fun with my Sister and her husband, and her 4 children! I hope you two are doing well and having some great adventures!
