ANTIGUA, again...you will see more than one post from this beautiful and historical city. Our friends, the Fillmores, had just arrived and wanted to go to Antigua. (There are a few previous posts from Antigua.) 



              Elder Mark and Hermana LeAnn Fillmore
First, let me introduce these fantastic people. They are from Burley, Idaho where we lived many years ago for only a few years. Burley left its mark on our hearts with many memories of loved friends. So, when we received an email from one of my very dearest friends in all the world, Lanny Arnell, telling us about a wonderful couple called to Guatemala, we were anixous to mee them. Anyone from Burley are friends of ours, and Fillmores are definitely friends! Although we have been gone from Burley several years, we know many of the same people so it is almost like a reunion when talking with them. They are assigned to the Guatemala City Central mission where Sister Fillmore´s cousin, Hermana Markham, serves with her husband who is the mission president.


I am always fascinated with these wonderful and unique people who call themselves "Guatemalans". Their features are so distinct. I feel they have a story to tell. And, if I could only speak more Spanish, maybe they could tell me. Of course, if I ever has an opportunity to hold a baby, I do it!
