Garcia Tellez Family




Josh has been talking about this awesome family that really takes care of the missionaries. He loves this family! A part of the family went to the temple on Valentines Day, the girl with the red hair is Lulu and she and her husband and baby went and were sealed, along with 10 missionaries who are very attached to this family! Also he sent pictures of Hermana Tellez aka 'la Santa", the mother of the whole bunch, missionaries included.
