Transfers...

There are some missionaries that are great and there are some that are so super great that you consider them your friend, even your sister! That's how Sister Hatch is to me! But I guess like Andrew said, 'Since you will be a missionary you should probably get use to transfers.' Sad day. But on the bright side, there is always the US Postal Service! I love writing cute little notes in the mail!

When Sister Hatch was new in the area.

Sister Hatch's last Sunday with the YSA Branch.

Temple Trip again!

The day was windy but inside the Temple was amazing. This Temple trip I was thinking about my mission some more. I reflected on all the little tender mercies that Heavenly Father has given me as I’ve been preparing that this time at the temple the feeling was different but still the same sweet, calm, peaceful feeling. I guess I’m just so blessed right now I don’t know how to feel or explain it.

After our amazing car ride home with Mark and Rachel, Anna-Marie and I did a little shopping and then went to Brother and Sister Yost's home for a YSA movie night! We had Hawaiian Haystacks to go along with the theme of the movie, Leo and Stitch. And of course I just had to hold little Abigail! What a cutie! We had such a grad time with lots of funny commentary from Nick! Haha. You had to be there for you to laugh… sorry!

Friends and Yummy Treats!

Valentine's Day is something great but for those that don't have a significant other... it's sad. So Anna-Marie and I wanted to do something for our YSA friends. Andrew was such a trooper with helping make the brownies and such! They were so good!

Skip the main meal and just have dessert!

After church on Sunday we had a potluck. The food was just amazing, but this was the tops for me! I could not help myself from taking it in! It's like dirt pudding but better! What can I say, Anna-Maire is the best! 



It's like sledding... but better!

Every year our YSA Branch goes Tobogganing and there was no way I was going to miss it just becasue I was sick... I may have a smile on my face but my stomach sure did not. So I only went down once! But don't worry I was able to keep all my food down!

Face it. We had so much fun that you're jealous!!! Haha.

In my area, our YSA Branch is so blessed to have two sets of Sister Missionaries! So I've made it my goal to go out with  each set every month! And I'm happy to say that I've accomplished that!!! I love being with the sisters and to feel of their sweet spirit and hear their testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ! I hope when I serve my mission I can be as loving, inspirational, and serviceable as each of them!

To Kirtland we Go

As Andrew, Anna-Maire and I were not ready to go back to school but when we serve, we feel better about ourself. So we took the opportunity to be with the Sister missionaries and help with some investigatiors by taking a trip to Kirtland! I'll have to explain more about our trip later.
