Grandma Jule here - - - THANK YOU SO MUCH, Derrill, for this inspiring posting!! I heard the same conference talk you did -- I've heard Pres. Kimball's story before -- but it didn't really "register" until now. I appreciate the FANTASTIC photos more than I can say. I've never seen the statues of the apostles; I've *certainly* never seen the Christus "in situ" -- and your 3-panel shot does a wonderful job of helping a person feel as though they were actually standing there in the Var Flor church. But, the "icing on the cake" is your inspiring, insightful commentary. It brings the whole experience together and invites the Spirit to witness the truth, which makes it feel like I've actually been there and experienced it for myself. Thank you so much!
The Vor Frue Kirke is amazing. Denmark was part of my mission (even though I only spent a little less than 24 hours there on my way home). I was able to visit that church. It is an amazing place. I was able to spend enough time in Copenhagen to know I love it, but not nearly enough to get my fill. I hope you get a chance to take more pictures before you finish up there. I must say I am remotely envious that you are in Denmark right now.
Hyrum's favorite phrase since I came back from Nigeria is "We're all together again!" He says it every morning when we wake up and every day when I come home from work. "We're all together again!"

After playing a game where characters were named Red, Blue, Yellow, etc. "Daddy, you're Blue. I'm Red. [a little later] ... So, Daddy. Oops, I called you Daddy. I'm sorry." You can call me Daddy as much as you like. "I can call you *Blue* as much as I like."

"Mommy, feed me breakfast." Hyrum, will you feed me breakfast? "Mommy, feed ME breakfast." Yes. I will feed you breakfast. Then will you feed me breakfast? "No. You can make breakfast for yourself." O-ho-ho! And when will you be able to make breakfast for yourself? "... When I'm five. But I'm three."
