"I believe in God and Jesus Christ, now what do I do?" We were both thinking....um "get baptized immediately!"

My new companion Sister Tahi

Okay so here is the story! So ever since I got the training call I have been really really sick. I cant even tell you how sick I felt on Tuesday when I was going to get my trainee. On Tuesday morning I went out to work with sister Abeyta and after an hour we came home because I couldn't even stand up. I went home and slept and then we got a knock on the door from the Zone leaders. They were there to give both of us blessings. Sister abeyta and I both got blessings that brought tears to our eyes. Both of the blessings talked about specific things that each of us as individuals were worried about and struggling with. And the thing is that no one knew about any of that stuff except for sister abeyta and I and God. I am so thankful for the priesthood and those missionaries that lived worthy to receive that revelation from heaven. Oh ya I forgot to tell you the story. I think that I was sick for a reason. The call that I got was not the right thing. When I got to the training meeting, President Neider pulled me aside and started to cry. He said, the Lord has intervened and he has let me know that I need to get the temple square sister. I agreed with him and told him that I want to do what the Lord wants me to. I can see already why I got the switch in companions. This area needs miracles. Not that the trainee wouldnt have been good but this area needs two, obedient, experienced missionaries. I have seen miracles since my new companion sister Tahi (from tahiti) got here.  I want to let you know that I have never gone in from work on my mission (except for the time I almost passed out from biking last august hahaha I don't know if I even told anyone about that one haha). But I was pretty worthless that day. 

We set a little 9 year old boy for baptism this week. After I got my new companion that is the first thing that we were led to do. We went over the house, the mom sobbed to us and desired help from the Lord through the scriptures. It was the perfect time to show up at their house. She brought up that her son had not yet been baptized but wants to be. So we jumped on that and we are teaching him the lessons. We are so excited! Last night we were also led to go to this potentials house. He invited us in after everyone else slammed the door in our face. SO that was a pleasant surprise. Then we got to talking and he said, "I believe in God and Jesus Christ, now what do I do?" We were both thinking.....um get baptized immediately. hahaha. But we noticed that he had a Book of Mormon laying on his coffee table. He said that he cant really read that one because he understands Arabic better.....then my mind flashed back to when I was cleaning our room the other day and I saw a BOM that was in this crazy language and it ended up to be in Arabic. I told him that we had one for him. How crazy is that, that we just randomly had an Arabic BOM in our room. He also said that he is amazed that we even caught him at home because he is never home. Coincidence? I think not. We told him that we will go get the BOM and bring it back to him tonight. He said that will not be possible because he will be gone. SO he said to leave it on the doorstep and that he will take it with him on the trip. So near the end of the night we went and grabbed the book and went back to his house. Yet he was outside just about to go into his house. Coincidence? I think not. He told us that he will read it and that he will take us out to dinner this friday. I have a good feeling about this one. 

I said goodbye to sister abeyta and sister garner and sister espinal. I am going to miss them all! Sister garner said goodbye to me on friday and I got to meet her parents. I am going to miss her so much!  I really love all my companions and I was thinking today that EVERY SINGLE ONE of my roomates, and companions in my life have helped shape me into who I am today. I am so thankful for them. THey are all amazing and I love them so much! 

Thanks for waiting for me for christmas! You guys are amazing! Im so excited. It will be a great welcome home. Man time flies by. Soon I will be home! I cant even believe that. There is so much left to do! 

Oh you talked to sister Jones? That is awesome! I love her so much! She is so amazing! I dont think that there is anything that you can do for me right now. Wow I cant believe that I am going to be skyping you guys not this sunday but the next. wow. I already am figuring out what member we can have to help us with that. I will be having someone call you guys to set it all up for us. When are you guys getting back from Nauvoo?  Mom did you ever get the message that I lost my camera card from elko? I talked to sister espinal and she said that she would be more than willing to give me pictures from our time together so they arent lost forever :] Plus I am grateful that I sent home pictures every week so that they are salvageable there. 


 I love you guys a lot and I really hope that everything goes well this weekend. Cant think about it too much or I will lose it but I am just planning to keep myself busy busy busy so I'm too tired to think about it. I love you guys and please travel safe. Please don't forget me this weekend. I think that is the only thing that you can do for me. I love you and I miss you all! TRAVEL SAFE! IF YOU DIE ON THE PLANE I WILL KILL YOU. hahaha :] Love and kisses from nevada!

Britton I am so proud of you! I wish I could have seen you pass the sac and give a talk. Dont worry baby, your happy birthday little present is coming. I love you buddy and I am so proud of you.

Im so proud of my little babies and I wish I could give all of you guys kisses and loves and slepovers. MWAH! XOXOXOXO

"We got a new investigator that went fly fishing with the prophet."

April 23, 2012

Hey my lovelies!

I have so much on my mind holy garbadge! I am excited to train but I am really nervous as well. I am so thankful for sister Matthew and the great example of a trainer she was. Today for my personal study I was just praying and writing down promptings that I have been recieving for my trainee so that we can see miracles in this area. So tomorrow I am going to a training meeting at the mission office and then I get my new baby at about 3 pm. Then I will bring her home, throw her stuff in the house and get to work. The tour of the house and unpacking will be a night activity. I am so excited to get to work tomorrow. It will be a new experience. Green valley I think was a great area to be trained in because there are TONS of people to talk to but here it is pretty dead at times but I know that this new trainee and this companionship will bring miracles. I have a lot of exicting promptings I am going to act upon for my trainee. I love her already. I am excited to meet her. I know that it will be really hard but at the same time I know that she it will be great.

This week we got a new investigator that went fly fishing with the prophet. Dad I actually gave him your work number so that you can talk fishing hahaha. Yea when we talked to him he was like..." Yea I met mr. Monson and he is really nice." It was hilarious. Wow can you imagine having the prophet as a fellowshipper at a lesson? hahaha I would have a heeart attack if I had to teach in front of the prophet hahaa. Wow good times. So dad if a LEO calls you...he is my investigator. Oh by the way I found out that one of the ladies I taught in elko got baptized a little while ago and I didnt even know it! Crazy huh?

 Made homemade bread for our investigators

 Saying So Long to Sisters Garner and Abeyta

Otherwise this week was really slow......just trying to work real hard and find those people. Oh there was one  thing that happened last night. A week ago we challenged this family to give out a BOM as a family and instead of that, they said can we EACH give one out? We were like.....uhhhhhhhhhhhh duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........So we gave them 6 BOMS and last night we followed up with them! We were so proud 4 out of 7 of them gave their BOMS out and we are coming back next week to follow up with them and see how it went! The spirit was so strong in the room and it was amazing that these members were so dedicated! WE NEED DEDICATED MEMBERS OMGOSH! We need them so bad!

Lots of pics this week! I hope you enjoy! Off to PDAY activities with our district. So excited. Mwah and love you all!

HANNAH WOW I AM SO PROUD OF YOU I CANT EVEN TELL YOU! I love you so much baby! So proud of my littles.

Britton you are a cute little priesthood holder. I cannot tell you how proud I am of you and how much the priesthood means to me. It means everything in my life. Always live worthy of holding that priesthood!

Cassie I am just loving and loving you!  I dont like marriage things yucky yucky. Just letting you know I almost bought something for you and your wedding night. It was a black solid turtleneck onepiece that was fullength sleeve and pants. That is what you are going to wear. I dont care what you say.

Shar and caden I want to hear from you!

Mom and Dad I have been praying for you all week and have been worried but I know it will all be okay.  Can you beleive I am in my 11th month? And I am training. I will let you know about my trainee next week! Love you lots and thank you so much for the package last week. I didnt get anything from grandma besides a letter. But the elders just told me that I might have a package at the Zl's house. So we will see. I LOVED THE TAPE! I would love another one when you get the chance. If you could send me a blank one to record on that would be great. Also I have a bunch of stuff to send home. I KNOW THAT IT WONT FIT IN MY SUITCASES.  I love you and miss you all!

 Jasmin's Baptism

"God has helped me to feel that pure joy that comes from work."

April 16, 2012

Anyways! That was a hilarious story shasha! hahahaha Wow I cant wait to hear all these stories when I get back! But in the mean time I WANT TO STAY ON MY MISSION AND SERVE MY GUTS OUT! So our area has had a really hard time lately. I am seeing a pattern in my mission that I am tossed around a lot to different areas and different companions.  This area is unlike any area I have been in. It is a really hard area and we have like 0 investigators but we have seen miracles lately. The other day in church I saw this teenage girl sitting in front of me. And I about flipped a cow because she looked IDENTICAL to SHARLEE. I seriously though shar stalked me and came and saw me in a ward. Yea.......my heart was going 384603874562083 beats per second. But it was this girl named marley who had come to church all by herself. Yesterday she came up to us and said, I want to be baptized, can I meet with you guys tonight? We set her for baptism last night for may 19th. Crazy crazy. Maybe God created her that way to that I would pay attention and notice her in the congregation. hahaha. Yea pretty awesome. We also set another lady for baptism this week. She has been an eternigator (eternal investigator) for years and years. We made some ground with her this week! Quite a breakthrough! We talked to her about the atonement and how she can be healed. She burst into tears because she wants to change and she doesn't feel the support of her husband but she has a great desire to reach the great potential that she has. We invited her to church but she didnt come.........so sad. She is set for June 16th. Anne marie is her name.

On saturday I had the honor of seeing Jasmin enter the waters of baptism. She is the 15th person that I have seen change their life and become closer and closer to God. Jasmin is like a little sister to me. Her baptism was a very special one because she is the only member in her family now. Her mom and grandparents came to her baptism. Though they are anti, they felt the spirit very strong and I know they will be baptized...it is only a matter of time. All of her family was bawling and felt the spirit of the Lord so strongly. Her grandmother even came to the baptism with a deep question, praying that she would recieve an answer to her very specific question. She talked to the missionaries afterwards and told them that she had recieved an answer. She was sobbing as she asked for a blessing. We went in to se her recieve a blessing. Although the blessing was in spanish, I felt the spirit very strongly. I know that Jasmins baptism will lead to generations effected. I love that girl so much!

Dad I am gathering all the informtion of my investigators and favorite members as I go. Dont worry! We will have plenty of places to go and visit.

All the missionaries are thinking that I am going to train this next transfer. But every time they say that it never happens. I know that whatever happens on my mission is meant to build me and build those around me. I feel as though he has built me and is stretching to be more than I was on June 22nd 2011. I love my mission and it is going by so fast. I cannot beleive I have been out 10 months. I have thought a few seconds on what my plans will be after the mission and honestly I have no idea. I have no plans. I have no idea what I want. I will let the Lord guide me.

So last night I had an awesome experience. Last night Michael Hicks, the composer of TONS of my favorite church music (including the version of "I know that my redeemer lives" that we sang at my "farewell.") did a fireside for the youth last night. We went with Marley to the fireside and it was an amazing experience to hear him perform my favorite music live. His last song he played was the song we sang at my farewell. That song has been the theme of my mission and so it brought me to tears as he played it. Afterwards I shook his hand and he thanked us for being missionaries. So powerful.

So I only have another week with sister Abeyta. I feel as though she has taught me so much! I feel WAY less hard on myself and actually feel happy with the effort I place forth every day. I work really hard and God has helped me this transfer to feel that pure joy that comes from work.

I love you so much and I miss you! I dont get my mail until after email so I dont know what has come this time but Im sure I will get the package today. I am glad to hear that they got their presents. Tons of pictures this week! Love you!

 Steve's Baptism

 Dyeing Easter Eggs

Coming home after a long day to a project mess I made!

Whenever I get ahold of a shovel or rake or lawnmower......it's alllll over!

April 9, 2012

This week was insane but real slow. Spring break down here and also holiday. Our teaching pool is really struggling right now because this area is soooooooooooooooo dead, but its good for me haha. So last night we had a crazy thing happen. We were in our "akward hour" (8-9 pm) and we thought hey lets go to the benitas house! They are amazing people and I am converted fully to her cooking. Anyways. We pulled up and parked the car. When we got out of the car we hear a little baby crying out "MOMMY MOMMY!" We looked and there stood this little nakey nakey baby in an open garage all by herself. We said BABY go in the house and then the garage door to the house shut and it left her totally in the dark. She started to scream and we ran up to her and then the mommy came out! The mommy was soooooooooooo freaked out that her baby was all by herself! She was so thankful to us that we were there to watch over her so she wouldnt run out into the street. The dad came out too and he was so grateful! Then we got talking about hunting and then we got talking abou tthe gospel. They didn't seem interested but they have alot of family in the church and hopefully us giving them our number will open the doors for them. The baptism this weekend was amazing! I sang perfect love from an efy soundtrack and it worked out really well! I was very proud of myself! I still get nervous at times but it doesn't manifest with the quality of my voice, I just get embarrassed and get a little flushed. But I prayed that that wouldnt happen this time and it DIDNT! :] God knew that was important to me and so he helped me. I thought that was so cool! I seriously love steve he is sooooooooooo amazing!  He was so full of light and as a missionary that is the greatest joy in the world. He is the most solid person in the entire world. So I wanted to tell you that in my studies I have done something new. I just started to BOM over and I have been highlighting ANY TIME it mentions the members of the Godhead. It is soooooooo powerful! When I come back someday I will show you what it looks like to do that! My pages are highlighted with yellow dots of where it mentions God, Christ and the Holy Ghost. Now tell me this is not another testament of Jesus Christ and that he lives. The BOM is the most amazing book! I never knew it until college and now I appreciate it even more! I am soooooooooooooooooo thankful! We had a couple of rough lessons this week where pepople just could NOT believe that Joseph Smith saw God and Jesus Christ. Everything that has ever been written by the prophets in the Bible points to the chance of that happening. God is the same yesterday today and Forever and I love him! He loves us because he gave us another record to read about the Savior and I am excited for more books to come that we can read. Christ said, Other sheep I have which are not of this fold, them also I must bring.....He was talking about the american people as well as people on other continents. I know this gospel is true. I know that God restored his gospel through the prophet Joseph Smith. I know that the BOM and the Bible are the word of God. I know that Christ died for us and was ressurected so that we could live. I am so thankful for him and his angels being by my side. Though I cannot see them, I can feel them supporting me in this work. I hope all of you know that I know this is true and the list can go on and on. The atonement brings so many blessings that we can read in the scriptures and hear from our modern day prophets asd apostles, but we cannot receive the full blessings of the atonement until we make promises with God such as baptism, temple, sealed for time and all eternity....etc. So cool to think of it that way. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this means that ALL the people around each one of you that are not baptized by the only correct authority cannot receive the full blessings of the atonement. THAT IS WHY MISSIONARY WORK IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IMPORTANT! Anyways! We had kinda a slow week so we decided to do a service chain! We went to our investigators house and said "We are here to serve you and you cannot take no for an answer, put us to work." She was very hesitant but we have been desperate for service work! She has been trying to quit smoking so we started helping her by going outside and cleaning up all her ciggarette butts. One thing led to another and I found myself mowing her lawn and sweeping off the patio. I was sooooooooooo addicted! :] We had so much fun and I miss yard work. :] On my mission whenever I get a hold of a shovel or rake or lawnmower...........its alllllll over! hahahaha. Well I am doing well. Seriously the times goes by so fast. I have already almost been out for 10 months. Soon it will be a year and then soon after that I will be walking out of the airport thinking that this was all a dream. I feel that there is so much to do and so little time. But I will do my best.  I have been getting better with not being so hard on myself. I think that it has been because sister abeyta is my companion. Now I just need to find my balance. I know that sister abeyta and I needed to be companions. Believe it or not, out of all of my companions, sister abeyta has been able to help me with my self conscious issues the most. I have felt a huge change in me! It is awesome! I feel better! But always it is a work in progress. I LOVE MY MISSION AND I LOVE YOU ALL! I miss you! QUESTION. Did hannah EVER get my birthday present for her? And did sharlee get her's this week?! Love you all! Yes mom, thinking about the wedding is really hard. But I will get through it. Wow I almost started crying............AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please dont send me pictures and just be tender with me for a little while after the wedding and before obviously. Please dont fill the skype convo about it. I want to hear all about it, but we only have a limited amount of time and my soul will be very tender at that point. I know you understand. Love you.

"I Killed my first Cockroach this week!

April 2, 2012

Hello from Black Mountain!

Conference was awesome! Thought about how mom and dad were dragging yall out of bed about 10 minutes before hahaha and you all were in your jammies and blankets hahaha. Wow I remember those days. Unlike you guys I had been up since 6:30 am and in a dress in the water st. chapel. I LOVE CONFERENCE SO MUCH! I have never loved it so much in my life til a few years ago. I never realized how important it was until my mission though. WE HAVE A MODERN DAY MOSES/NOAH/ABRAHAM in OUR DAY to give us DIRECT REVELATION FROM GOD. Yeah thats pretty amazing. I cannot thank God enough for the restoration of his priesthood in these latter days. They are incredible! I cant even pick one that I really love. Well all I can say is I was bawling my eyes out during president Eyring's talk the 1st session on saturday. RIP MY EYES OUT! AHHHHHHHH! It was on trials and omgosh I needed that!  I just couldn't handle the information for some reason. I came to conference with 3 questions but I didn't feel that they were answered the way I wanted them to be. STUBBORN ME! hahaha. I just figured I really really think that I need to listen to it 40 billion more times so that I can get the answers to my questions. :] So we have a baptism this week for this amazing investigator named steve, (yes yes father his name is steve :]) He actually went to conference in salt lake! Amazing huh?!?!?! He is so elect and I love him so much!  Soooooo about my companion. She is so great and I love her so much.  So we just had zone conference this week and it was amazing. The Brethren cut our mission down because I guess we havent been doing very good the 1st few months of the year. The have been changing the way we do things here and it is quite an adjustment but it is good. I think that the mission will benefit so much by it! And they gave us a suggestion to apply to our mission. This suggestion is something that a florida mission applied in their mission and it DOUBLED their baptisms. When salt lake sees a change like that, they wonder "Oh no! What are these apostate missionaries doing?!?!?!" But actually they just were doing everything right!!!!!!!!!! This is what they did!.....What you do is in a street contact or any kind of contact you say straight up...."We are representatives of the Savior Jesus Christ and we have been sent to this area today to bless the homes and people here. If the Savior was here with us right now, what would you ask him to bless you with?" "Would you like to have a blessing upon your home?" Obviously us as sisters dont have the priesthood our president told us to just use a prayer of faith. Honestly we first applied it yesterday and I have never felt so much power in street contacts ever. The first 2 people that we tried it on rejected us like mass bad but it was so cool because I felt the spirit so strong. I have never felt the spirit so strong in a rejection in my life. There was such a great power that has changed my mission! Obviously I have to work on it an master it more but its okay! We are working in it! It is AMAZING! We ended up praying in 2 street contacts homes yesterday! From one of those blessings we got a return appointment. Things are going well! We also got another suggestion from the brethren which was how to set someone for baptism. You do this.........teach them a lesson, then you teach them how baptism is the only way to go back to God (doctrine of Christ) 2 nephi 31:21. Then you set them. If they say no, you say, "Are you 100% positive that the way you are living your life right now is the way that Heavenly Father wants you to live right now?" If they say yes then obviously they are not ready, if they say no then they have potential. Then teach them how baptism by the authority is the ONLY way that someone can receive all of the blessings of the atonement which all of us need so bad. Teach them about the atonement and how it can affect their eternal life. Then ask them questions to the effect of, "What are you willing to do in order to return back with God and receive all the blessings of the atonement?" (Use the scriptures to teach these principles, there are more power in the scriptures than just saying the blessings we can get with our own words.) Check them for understanding and teach more if needed and then re-set them. This is the approach that we are doing and it is AWESOME! I cant wait to try it! You just have to be bold thats all. They also need to know that there are eternal consequences for rejecting the doctrine and way of Christ. NEWS! I killed my first cockroach this week! I know! I have been so blessed to not see any of them or scorpians on my mission because God knows I would die if I lived with them. I am growing and loving my mission. I feel myself stretching. CAN YOU GUYS SEND ME A VOICE  TAPE AND PICTURES AND FUN CDS please!?!?! I am DYING FOR NEW CDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you and miss you! Thank you britton for writing me you little punk! I miss you and I want to hear from all of you more often please! MWAH MWAH XOXOXO!

My new Companion Sister Abeyta!

Emergency Transfer!

March 26, 2012


So just kidding, I was emergency transferred to Black mountian with Sister Abeyta!
 I am no longer in a trio and I am in Black mountain.  We got a new sister in the mission 
randomly and it changed all the sister companionships!

Black mountain is in henderson. Major streets are Paradise hills, mission, Horizon drive. If that gives you an idea where that would go on the map. I think it is kinda far from green valley but maybe not.......no idea. My comp is a temple square sister and she is going back there in 4ish weeks. 

She is from anaheim cali and she is going home in july. She is the
senior comp. The Lord really wants me to learn something hahaha
because I am seeing a trend in my comps a little bit. Obviously they
are not all the same but hahaha they all are pretty similar. 

Ahhhhhh! So I am going to have to write you a letter because this
computer is soooooooooooooooooooooo dumb!  AHHHHHHHHH! THings are good
here. Had a few great things happen. I hit my 9 month mark! PS I am
sending prego pics...that is what we do on the mish when we have been
out for 9 months. DO NOT POST THEM! hahaha. I am so proud of my
babies, I am doing good, new challenges, uh.......great investigators
and I will write you a letter today! I am SOOOOOOOO Sorry dont kill me
hahah! and I have a TON of stuff to send home so I will be trying to
do that in the next few weeks! I WANT TO HEAR THE TAPE! I love you and
I miss you all! I PROMISE PROMISE I WILL SEND YOU SOMETHING THIS WEEK!
And the pics might come next week! Love you and miss you so much.

This is Corynn's Mom and I am going to be the catch up blogger and I don't really know how to do this so be patient as I am learning!

Let's NEVER teach someone so elect again! hahaha

March 19

Yes the news was that sister Hanny and I were staying together....but little did we know that we had a 11 month old bundle of joy coming into our companionship! SISTER LIO from Samoa! WE ARE IN A TRIO! It is quite an adjustment in our teaching and everything but we are getting it! Our room is also really tiny so that has been fun.........you know how much I adore shared spaces hahahaha. Anyways, I just do my part and keep my things OCD clean and that is all I can do. I usually clean up for my companions too and they seem very appreciative. Oh so the morning of transfer conference (this last tuesday) we were not planning on going to transfer conference because we were both staying in the area and then we get a call from the AP's (Assistants to the President). I answered the phone and they said that we needed to go to transfer conference because we were going to be in a trio and also they asked me at the very last minute to do the musical number for the conference. GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK!!!! But it ended up to be very good. The only one that I had prepared that would be formal enough for the occasion was "I know that my Redeemer lives." That seems to be the theme of my mission. I am so thankful for that song and how it has carried me through so far. The performance went really well and we got sister Lio! Also we had Leslie's baptism! And wow that is a story that I will never forget. Everything that could have possibly went wrong with the baptism, did.  As we drove away from the baptism, almost all in tears, sister hanny said, "Lets NEVER teach someone so elect again!" hahaha. Leslie must be so special to our Heavenly Father because from the day we met her to this day, she has had some of the hardest things happen to her and some of the most amazing miracles. I could hardly believe it.  The spirit was rarely in her lessons, but for some reason we continued.  Her interview was the same. We were going to meet her at a building and we arrived 10 min early and she was already gone. She went home and then her son crashed bad on his bike. Then We drove ALL the way over to her house to have the interview. We went in her house and went inside, had a prayer and then sister hanny and I had to go outside during the interview.  Then after like ten min president came out and said "SHE CAN BE BAPTIZED!" :) So excited! The day before her baptism we realized on our teaching record that we NEVER taught the word of wisdom! HOW DOES THAT EVEN HAPPEN?!?! And if she had partaken of any of those substances in the last week then she was not going to get baptized the next day! We had told her a few weeks before what the word wisdom was and she knew what she couldn't partake of but we didnt get into detail. So that was another obstacle. Then the night before her baptism she got really sick. And she was super late to her baptism because she couldn't get her 3 boys in the car and she finally said, "I dont care if they are ready or not, I am going to my baptism!" So talis came without shoes, etc hahaha. She has such amazing faith. And just to summarize the baptism,  the guy baptizing her forgot how to baptize and the program went haywire. I wanted to cry. But the spirit told me, leslie is a very important piece of what will become generations and generations of righteous children of God. How amazing is that? Even for her confirmation the next day, she lost her keys and she had to get her neighbor to take her and her boys to church. But the only thing that matters is that she got baptized and that she has received an ordinance of salvation. We are so excited for her. She said that now she feels like she has a chance for her boys to be good and to excell. She was blessed in every blessing that her children will be stalwart members of the church, she would be able to raise a righteous family and that she would bring many to the knowledge of the truth. I have been so thankful for the opportunity to witness that elect daughter of God coming into the fold. I am forever thankful! We also had another lady come to church this week! Her name is maria and she is set for baptism on april 14th. We will see how things go. She seems really super prepared by the Lord. Also it was really awesome to see Danny get a calling as the sunday school sec and get the priesthood. He is hilarious. We love him so much! And we are so thankful to him because he gave us 2 referrals which were both interested in meeting with us! We are soooooooooooooo excited. Oh I got my tees today! THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH! The colored one is so cute! Thank you so much! Daddy I think that I really do want the airplane experience. I think that I really need that. OKay can you believe that I have been out 9 months? I cant believe it. I feel like I just came out.

Anyways I Love you and I accidently sent the email before I was done. But I am doing really well and I would love to have that airplane experience that dad talked about. Wow daddy are you getting trunky for sister Finey?!?!?! Hahaha oh something really funny is that talis calls us all these funny names, coco, hooti, booty, dot, diter dine and wow he is sooooo funny! Having some hard times but its okay. I am really trying to work through them. Otherwise I am doing really well and wow I cant believe the downhill slide is here. The last 9 months. I cant believe that. Hopefully you dont forget about our skype date on mothers day because of the wedding and everything. Man woe to my companion on May 4th hahaha. No itll be good Im really excited. Did you guys remember my height for the cardborad cutout? Whats going on with wedding plans? I really have no idea. Love you all and I havent been getting any mail lately so I would love to hear from my babies and friends. :] Love you and mommy XOXOXOXOXO
