We got Elder Kevin home and released from his mission and he started to settle into life as a civilian, once again. We took Kevin to the dentist the next day and got all of those issues taken care of. Then we had a ward Harvest Festival a couple of days later that we all attended. He was getting into character with his Cubs jacket.
Veterans Day 2016 and we all went over to Great Grandpa Neer's grave site to pay respects to him. He passed away last year.

| This national cemetery is in Dixon, CA. |
 |
| The Seger crew. Allye, Garret, Avrye, and Hailye. |
 |
| I gave a handful of pennies to the crew and explained the tradition of leaving one at the headstone of anyone that you are showing respect for. In addition, for a veteran, a nickel shows you served in bootcamp with the deceased, a dime shows you served with them at one time, and a quarter shows that you were there when they died. |
 |
| This area has about doubled in size since GGPa Neer passed away a few months ago. |
We then went off to visit the Jelly Belly Factory, since it was just down the road a few miles.
 |
| A diabetic's nightmare... nummy! |

| Full run to the store! gimme some Jelly Belly's! |
