Holland



People keep asking me how our trip was and all I can say was it was a dream. How amazing it was to go back to where my dad served his mission with my family. We had such a great time exploring cities and learning new things. This trip, instead of being a crazy tourist and taking thousands of pictures, I tried to take pictures that had lots of meaning behind them. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words right? So here are a couple of my favorites! 




Petey came of course too. 

We did over 200 baptisms. They made Matt do all the names in Dutch. It was so special to see the pure joy on my dads face watching his son perform sacred ordinances in the language he loves. 

He grabbed my hand, kissed it, and said " I can't wait to bring your family here"

Everyone was staring at us because we were dressed up. An old lady swore at me after this pic because we were in the road! haha


Matt and I spent around a half hour chasing birds and finding starfish at the North Sea. 

Matt and I got the giggles SO bad right before this pic for no reason. 

My dad said Jayann KISS ME FASTT hahaha

"I fit in here" 






In third grade my teacher asked me what my favorite color was and I said Delft Blue. I purchased my first piece of  Delft china and could NOT be for happy. (and please note the cute old man in the photo too haha) 
I had been sick all day. Matt ran over and grabbed me and said YAHOOO WE ARE HERE!!!!! He always knows how to make me smile. 
This was our morning bike ride route everyday! 
We spent hours sitting in the tulips
I had a dream my dad and I fox trotted in the tulip fields, and then it came true!
