GEORGIA for THANKSGIVING #1…

THE JOHNSONS AND THE CHRISTOFFERSONS TOGETHER AGAIN!!!

P1060687

It all started 17 years ago when one ELDER CHRISTOFFERSON and one ELDER JOHNSON played basketball at  the MTC (Missionary Training Center). There was some fierce competitive feelings between the two but in the end these two young Elders were destined to be life long friends. From the MTC, to Companions, to Roommates, the history these men share is full of nothing but cherished memories and a lifelong brotherhood that will never be broken! (above picture was actually taken post mission at our wedding! I couldn’t find any mission pics cause they are packed in boxes right now)

When these two Elders returned home from their missions they returned to school at BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY where they were roommates. In that year they met 2 beautiful Young Women. After lots of fun dates, and much falling in love, they each were married to the woman of their dreams :-) for Time and Eternity!
