Adhna Martin Family Visit in France

While we were in France, we had the opportunity to visit Sister Adhna Martin and meet her family.  
Sister Adhna Martin, from France, served with us on our mission in Louisiana. She was an awesome missionary and is such a beautiful young woman.

Adhna's family lives in this little village in the mountains outside of Carcassonne. We left early so we could enjoy a leisurely drive and it turned out to be very enjoyable.

It was an amazing drive through tree lined streets.
We saw some amazing villages as we drove through the mountains.  Here's just one of those breathtaking views that we got on the way to Mazumet.

The Martin Family
After we arrived they took us out to see their garden. It was awesome, so huge and they have fruit trees and a little stream running by it for the water.

We loved getting a walking tour of their village and loved to see the "countryside of France".  It is so different from the cities.  It's clean and green, not dirty and gray. People take so much pride in their homes and yards. There were vegetable gardens all over.

We gave the girls the camera to take pictures for us and then when we got home we had all of these beautiful pictures. They truly have a knack for taking gorgeous pictures.



We spent the evening with them and enjoyed a wonderful dinner and a private concert by the older girls.  They are all very talented. Her grandparents joined us for the evening and they were quite delightful.
We love the Martin Family and will visit them again, hopefully we'll see Adhna when she travels thru to go to BYU-Hawaii.
