Jing and Yanwei
We have two adopted children, Jing and her husband Yanwei. Rebecca met them through school. They are from China and are here attending the UofU to get the doctorates. They celebrated their first Thanksgiving and Christmas with us. We love them, and hope to share the Gospel with them. They have been in our home enough to recognize that we are a happy family, and that Christ is the center of our home.
News from the Tefteller Bed and Breakfast
I'm not good at this, so I decided to update you on what's going on here in Highland, Utah. Then pictures will follow. That tells you why I should do this more often!!
After having our "INN" full since before Thanksgiving, and the last of our company leaving last week....we have temporarily closed down for cleaning and minor repairs.
Charlie and Rachel will be heading off to New York this Summer. Charlie got accepted to a Podiatry School in Harlem. I told them they will really miss Hannah when they go. But we'll take really good care of her. They are trying to find a "good" neighborhood to live. Elder Cengiz will be returning home from his mission May 14. It's so hard to believe! Doug has moved to Colorado and is living with his Cousins, Danny, and Ashley. Andrew will be graduating from UofU in the Spring with a degree in Film. He is trying to decide whether to go on to graduate school, or get another degree in Chinese. Aaron is graduating with his masters in Spanish Translation from the University of Milwaukee. He also is applying to various schools for his doctorate, and we are hoping he will be accepted to the UofU. That's where Rebecca is also attending. Grandpa Cengiz is probably proud that 3 of his grandchildren are attending the college he graduated from. It looks like Mark and Flo may be going to Arizona for his graduate work. He is there as I type this interviewing at ASU. They are expecting baby #2, another boy, in June. Johnny and Megan are still waiting to hear from the various Medical School's he has applied to. We'll keep you posted. Syanna, Glenn's niece is still living with us, as she continues her archeology digs. :) Matt has moved in with us temporarily. "Into each of our lives, a little rain must fall." After 4 1/2 years of marriage, Matt and Brooke are getting divorced. This has been a difficult time for the both of them and us, so we hope you will all remember them in your prayers!
As for Doc, he continues to work hard, and teach the Gospel Doctrine Class. He got two brand new pairs of overalls for Christmas, which makes a total of 3 now! He is in "Farm Heaven." He goes out early every morning and feeds his two Black Angus Cows. He's been plowing snow lately because of the heavy snow fall we have been receiving.
Then there's me. I continue to do my chores her at home, and try to keep on top of things! If I wasn't busy enough, a guy in our ward asked me to help him out in his office part-time. So I've been going in 4 hours a day. I don't work the days Glenn has off. His office is just up in Alpine. It sure is a change! But, it's kinda fun. I'm still the Ward Activities Chairman. My next activity is Saturday, Feburary 9. We are having a Valentine's dinner party. We are going to have Chicken Alfredo, french bread, salad and cheesecake and chocolate cake. Yes! I am going to make it all, with a little help from my friends. Well, that's about it. I will now attempt to send pictures!! Wish me luck!
