Obedience Brings Blessings

April 28, 2014

Hey there family!!!

This week has been CRAZY!
So much has happened, I don't even know where to begin. 

I thought it was really ironic how mom told me to take those doterra tablets if i felt sick.
Because on Saturday we went on exchanges with the Pima Sisters & you'll never guess what..
It was a down pour!! So much rain!! And on a bike!! It was pretty fun though!!
But unfortunately I think I got a cold from being in the cold rain ALL day. 
Yesterday I only made it through all of Tortolita church and only sacrament in Country Side. 
We took my temp. and it was 100.5 and my throat was killing me & I was achy & stuffy nose. 
I felt really bad for making Sister Fuller come home ALL day.. but the Lord knows it's okay to take a break.

So basically that's all the hard stuff this week. 
The rest has just been normal.

Being a sister training leader is a lot of responsibility but oh man, I LOVE IT!
I am learning a lot about myself & i'm able to use my talents that God has given me. 
I was reading my P blessing and it talked about God giving me leadership skills 
& how I will be given opportunities to use them as I give of my time. 
How cool is that? 

Keaton.. I wish so badly that I could see you play LAX. I bet you are getting super buff yeah?
I'm glad you are super tough when people shove you.. hahaha noobs. 
Also, Sydney wrote me first so don't give me crap mr. I think she's written me more than you have ;)
Hahha just kidding.. but i'll be looking forward to that long letter you are going to send!!

As for Mothers Day!!! We are thinking it most likely won't be until later at night
Because we have our 6 hours of church plus dinner right after so maybe around 7 Arizona time. 
But I will let you know when I find out for sure! (:
Did you get the packages I sent? One of them was for mothers day so don't open it yet. 

Also, we get to go to the temple on Tuesday so i'm excited for that (:
And MLC (Missionary Leadership Convention) on Friday for all the leadership in the mission.
And exchanges again this week with the Spanish Sisters in East Stake. 

We've also been playing soccer every Tuesday with some non-member guys who are interested in learning more!
They even brought us cleats and shin guards. It reminds me soooo very much of Austin. 
I miss that kid quite a lot. 

One last thing.. 
This is the last week i will need to use my credit card to buy my groceries. 
We get new money this weekend. So sorry for spending all your money.. 
I'm grateful that you are able to help me out. 

I love you guys so very much & I hope your week has been great. 
That's super crazy that it is snowing... I honestly will die when i come home. 
Can you imagine, yank me out of 60 degree weather in December from Tucson
and drop me in 10 degree weather in December to Utah. I'm doomed. 

Well. I shall talk with you all next week.
Be safe & keep up the great missionary work at home. 

Love always,
Sister Kellee Walker

Easter Weekend

April 21, 2014

Hello there family!!
I MISS YOU GUYS SO STINKIN MUCH!!

I'm getting more and more excited for my mother's day call. 
We still don't know the details but I will let you know as soon as i know!

And I did get your little envelope package with my card and mom's letter and the quotes!!
I am deffinately going to hang them all ova the apartment. 
The apartments we have now are the greatest!! I have my own bathroom!! HUZZAH!!
And no wet carpet or damp smell. It's wonderful. 

We live super close to the mission office so that's really nice!!

Being over two area's is super hard!! There are so many people to keep straight
and boundaries to remember. We also share the ward with elders so that's fun!!
I'm getting used to all the responsiblity that comes along with being a STL :)
That's super cool that they sent you an email!! That makes me feel special. 
I made a list of all the Sisters that I am over now!!
Camp and Yarborough in Pima Ward
Souza and Grove in Casas Adobes Ward
O'Donnell and Halle in YSA 1st Ward
Ellis and Lopez in Spanish Ward (East)
Stratton and McNally in Lacanada Ward

Exciting right?!! There is a lot of responsibility but I am so excited. 
What a beautiful blessing. 

I'm learning a lot about obedience which I have come to love!!
We can receive sooo many blessings as we obey. 

Keaton.. that goes for you as well. When you are exactly obedient to mom and dad, you will get so many blessings like happiness at home, fun, joy, love, more freedom!! Plus you get blessing from Heavenly Father as well :) It's a double win. I wish I would have understood that more when I was growing up. Will you try to be more obedient this week? :) I promise that as you are obedient, you will be able to seriously SEE the blessings. Try for me? 

So I don't know if you guys got to see the Because of Him video that the church put out for Easter. 
If not, SHAME ON YOU!!!!! 

It was such a great video. Watch it right now :)
Did you know that the church bought the banner on Youtubes front web page yesterday and played the Because of Him video so that MILLIONS literally would see it on easter? That's how special is it. We watched it probably like 50 times this week. I'm obsessed. 

Since I am over 2 wards now, We go to 6 hours of church plus an hour of correlation and it was NUTS! That's like as long as school... but church. hahaha It was really great though, I'll admit, getting to spend 6 hours worshipping my Savior on Easter. What better way to celebrate His Sacrifice and Atonement and Resurrection. I think Easter has been my favorite holiday as a missionary. It's just wonderful. 

We also had 2 baptisms this weekend for Shayna  and Cindi. Being a missionary is beautiful and I hope I can always have a desire to share the gospel with others. :) 

Well folks. My time is up but I love you so much & I'll be keeping my eyes open for a easter package. 

Love always,
SISTER WALKER

Ps: KYLEE IS ENGAGED?!??? What the heck. All my friends are getting married.. without me. hahaha it's all good.. I'm super excited and happy for her. Tell her to send me pictures of her wedding and her ring and her soon to be hubby. And I sent a message back to Lexi :) I am so proud of her!! She will do wonders!!  

Pss: I got a package from Brendan that had a beautiful neckless in it. Did he show it to you before he sent it to me? Oh man... this is trouble. Hahaha he's great. 

Psss: How are the Dolinars?

Pssss: We drive a jeep. 

LOVE YOU!!

Shayna and Cindi's Baptism!!!

It's a Joyful Journey

Okay so let me just go through this week with you.

Monday: Our apartment flooded (you already knew that) and we went to the zoo!!
We also found out that our dropped baptism date received her answer and was ready to be baptized!!

Tuesday: I got the opportunity to go on exchanges with Sister Stuart and we went to her area to help pick up the work a little bit!
We went on some crazy dirt roads and basically went off roading. (I want a truck)
We did service at a ranch and I helped Sister Stuart realize that missionary work should AND is fun (: 

Wednesday: We had zone meeting where our whole zone (24 of us) got together and had a training about focusing on what truly is important in life. 
Guys, I love being a missionary. I am so blessed to have the desire I do to be here serving my Savior and Father. What a blessing in my life.
We also had Arielle's baptismal interview with Elder Vang
And I had Salmon for dinner...(:

Thursday: We had planned to give a church tour to our friend Vanessa but she didn't show up which was really lame because we had set up the whole building just for her..
BUT.. we were just about to put everything away when we noticed a man outside with his dog. So we went out and talked to him and invited him on a tour (:
His name is Kevin and he has a dog named Duster. (Like dusty but not) So we gave him a tour and he LOVED it. Hopefully we'll be seeing more of him!!

Friday: We taught law of chastity to an old less active lady in the ward & Sister Delap thought it was super awkward but I loved it. hahaha 
She looked at us and said, "Girls, mah plumbin don't work anyways. I couldn't have sex if I tried!" Hahhaha I loved it. 
I also got a new nick-name from our investigators daughter, Heidi. She calls me Sista Walkie. Hahhaah so freakin adorable.

Saturday: Sister Delap and I put on a last minute baptism for Arielle Bloomfield and it was flawless. I was so amazed with ourselves. 
The ward mission leader couldn't make it so we filled up the font by ourselves, set up the chairs by ourselves, got programs made and everything else.. by ourselves!!
Can I just tell you.. it is the most wonderful feeling in the world to know that I am an instrument in God's hands. I am helping His children come home to Him.
Arielle has a very special place in my heart & I hope one day you can meet her (: She's 15 and adopted, just like me! 
Then after the baptism we went to Culvers to celebrate. If you haven't gone there, do it! Get their concrete mixers. YUM!!!

And then comes Sunday: Usually we love Sundays but this Sunday was transfer calls. 
Let me explain to you a bit about transfer calls. 

Transfer calls begin around 8:00pm 
If you get a call from President you or your companion are either training or you are getting a leadership position.
If you get a call from the AP's you or your companion are getting transferred.
If you don't get a call, you and your companion are staying. 

So 2 transfers ago when I was still with Sister Cook, We received a call from President telling me that I would be training Sister Delap (: 
And last transfer we didn't get a call because we obviously stayed together (: 
But Sunday night we were hovering over the phone waiting for it to light up with either Presidents name or the AP's..
And when It rang, it said PRESIDENT KILLPACK! So that means either Sister Delap is training, which would be insane.. 
Either I'm training again.. or one of us is getting a leadership position.
So President small talks and then gets down to the neety-greety and says, 
"Sister Delap you are saying here and getting Sister Garner as a companion and Sister Walker, are you ready for this one?"
"Oh great President... Lay it on me!" (: 
Then he does his cute giggle and says, "You are being transferred to be with Sister Fuller in North Stake to be over the Tortolia AND Country Side Wards."
"AWESOME!!"
"But wait I'm not finished Sister Walker... We also would like to call you as a Sister Training Leader." 
"AHHHHHHHH WHAT?!!" 
"I have faith in you Sister Walker. You've been through a lot over your mission and we think this will be very beneficial to the mission.
But most importantly, the Lord has faith in you, and He is there for you always. So what do ya say?"
"Okay President, I would be happy to be a Sister Training Leader."

THE END 

So let me explain to you what a Sister Training Leader is:
A Zone Leader is an Elder who is over the ZONE and they give trainings to missionaries and they go on exchanges each week to train missionaries & help them become more effective. 
But what about the sisters? Elders can't go with Sisters!!
So that is where a Sister Training Leader comes in handy (: 
She does the exact same thing as a zone leader (: She gives trainings to missionaries (elders and sisters) during zone meetings, 
Goes on exchanges with the other sisters in the zone to help build their confidence and to help them be more effective
And goes to Missionary Leadership Convention where all the leadership in the mission get together and plan how to help the mission bloom. 
Can you believe it?!?? I honestly was nervous at first, but then I realized how blessed I truly am!
The Lord is trusting me to help His work progress and He needs to me be there as a support to these Sister Missionaries. 
How did I get so darn lucky? (: 

So here I am in North Stake with Sister Fuller who is also a Sister Training Leader. She is from Portland Oregon and is just great. 
I'm excited to get to know her and to not only serve as a Sister Training Leader, but also have the responsibility of serving over TWO wards!! 
Dad, that means 7:00 to 4:00. 10 hours of church. I do NOT want to hear any more complaining (: hahaha 

I love you guys so much. 
And i'm so blessed to have you as my support. 
I feel your love each and every day from the moment I wake up (: 
Thanks for the sacrifice you give and for all you do. 

Tell Keaton that I say hello (: 
I wish he would write me.. I have no idea what is going on in his life. hahaha 
Oh well.. teenage boys. 

Have a great week. 
Love always, 
Sister Kellee Walker

There goes the toilet, and our floor and everything

WOW! Can you say tribulation?!!!!

I don't know what it was about this week but holy crud. I have never seen more trial in this week, than I have my whole mission!! Let me expound on that a little bit: So at the beginning of this transfer, we had 7 investigators all with baptism dates. And on friday, ALL of our dates were dropped.. for different circumstances.. but they were all dropped!! And then this story tops it all off..

Last night after Sister Delap and I finished planning for today, I had this really strong impression to put everything that was on the carpet, up on the couch. So I did that and then went to bed. I woke up and and heard this really awful "pshhhhhhhekkekke" noise and thought it was our airconditioner freaking out again so I rolled out of bed to turn it off only to get my feet SOAKING WET. Water? From where?!! I hurried and turned on the lamp in our room and Sister Delap groans, "Six Thirty Already?!???" And I holler, "There is water everywhere Sister! Wake up!!" So she leaps out of bed and we open our bedroom door to find 3 inches of water running down the hallway of our apartment, coming from the bathroom. So we rolled our pants up and turned on the bathroom light and hallway light to see water spraying from the pipe under the toilet. We tried with all our might to twist the handle at the bottom but with no success we called President. Now we failed to look at the clock and just assumed it was around 6:00 but no... it was only midnight. Luckily President answered and gave us permission to have the elders come in our apartment to help us twist the handle. Well here is the funny part.... they twisted and twisted and twisted all while the water is rising and pouring out the door and they are unsuccessful. So we call Elder Johnston, our housing department missionary and he came to the rescue. (Elder Johnston and I have a really good relationship. I can't wait for you to meet him) So Elder Johnston twists and twists and twists and SNAP! He broke the handle and even more water is spraying out.... By this time the 4 soaking missionaries are mopping and filling up buckets to empty the apartment and by some miracle, Elder Johnson got the water to stop running!!! Then they all left and Sister Delap and I were left to a wet, soggy, humid apartment. It was just like having Noah's Ark in our apartment, minus the animals. I guess you could count the floating cockroaches as the animals. hahaha ewwwww. So we ended up calling maintenance emergency and left them a message but they didn't end up coming til 7 this morning. That was quite an adventure right?!??? And remember how I told you that I'm afraid of plugged toilets? Well now i'm afraid of all toilets in general. That experience just reaffirmed my fears. hahaha

I thought through that experience all day today & kept coming back to the talk in General Conference about being grateful even in times of turmoil. Things have been incredibly hard & i've unfortunately gotten a little discouraged, but last night it hit me: I am serving a mission for my Savior, Jesus Christ and He will bless me even when things are incredibly hard. He is always there for me, always willing to comfort. And I love Him for that. I was able to find things to be grateful for last night and I want to share them with you!!
I was grateful that I put up all the things on the floor last night.
I was grateful that I woke up earlier than 6:30!! Can you imagine the mess it would have been if I hadn't have woken up?!
I was grateful that our downstairs neighbor didn't say too many nasty things too us (:
I was grateful the Elders were so willing to help us and Elder Johnston too.
I was grateful for the once in a life-time opportunity as a missionary to play in water (: hahaha even if it was nasty toilet water.
See? You can find things to be grateful for in EVERY situation. Try it (:

Dad: I loved your message in the News Letter. You did an excellent job & you don't even need me to make corrections!! Don't worry about the mistakes that were made, people got the message and I'm sure they loved it! I loved that you quoted Paul V Johnson (: Did you know that he came and talked to all the missionaries here? It was a really cool experience & he is an awesome speaker!!

Mom: I can't believe you waited THIS long to take down the Christmas Tree!! That is a little ridiculous hahaha but i'm glad it finally got put away this weekend. (:
You asked about the map I sent home. I made that map for Sister Delap because she has a hard time remembering North South East and West and where places are so I was able to help her out a little bit (: hahhaa
And the purple sled?! I seriously almost cried when I read that it finally died. :'( How terrible. We we definitely have to have a funeral when I get home.
and about college.... I am a wee bit frustrated because I can't just call you and talk to you about my thoughts. There is a reasoning behind my madness, I promise. UVU really isn't in my future plans but we can talk more about it on mothers day (:
Transfers are this week so you won't be getting an email until Tuesday.

I hope things are going well and that your new toilets don't explode and create Noahs Ark in our home. Also.. I have video footage of the toilet experience but it's too large to send home but I got permission to send it home from my gmail account so be looking for that.

Love you and can't wait to hear back.

Love always,
Sister Kellee Walker

Another Hello from Another Week

Hey there family!!

I am sitting in the apartment clubhouse and there are kids in here running around like hoodlums and they are watching toystory and we can't take these computers out of here. It's really hard to FOCUS so please bare with me if this doesn't make sense. hahaha


This week has been a really good one filled with A LOT of service!! We had the opportunity to work on a ranch with horses and pigs and cows and goats and chickens! In my other life, I really think I would be a cow girl. We got to groom the horses and give them a bath and it was the funniest thing to see horses acting like dogs. hahaha and then we braided their mane and cleaned their stalls and their hoofs! And we planted her garden and fed all the animals! It was seriously soooo fun! (: I bet keaton wouldn't be able to clean up horse pee and poop like I did (: But yeah that was really fun!!

Sister Delap heard about her Visa!! She heard is was going to be another 3 to 4 months because she has to get an FBI clearance.. So we drove to downtown Tucson in the ghettos to go to the Pima Sheriffs Department to get her fingerprints and then I took her to get her very first Sanoran Hot Dog (: She loved it of course!! I can't wait to have you guys try one!
Also while we were in downtown Tucson, we drove right past my old area so I decided it would be prime to stop by and visit my recent convert, Elizabeth (: I'm sure you remember Elizabeth! Well it was just plum wonderful!! She is doing sooooooo well. Things with her husband didn't work out AT ALL (more details to come) and so they are getting an annulment(sp?) but man it was sooo great to see her and to see that she is still doing so well. I'm excited for you to meet her too!

In other news, I asked one of the Elders to give me a priesthood blessing to help me out a little bit. I've really been struggling with self worth. It was great to have 4 Elders stand around me an have them be the voice of my Heavenly Father. I am so grateful for that Priesthood Power. Without it, we would be lost.

ALSO!! A member in the ward gave me a piece of her jade plant and I named it Saylor Jade. And Sister Delap named hers Blake. But that's just a random thought. hahaha

Mom, Did you go to the womans conference?!??? IT WAS AMAZING (: (: (: We took our investigator Kim & she absolutely soaked it up. It was lovely!

well folks, sounds like you are all supa busy!! The house is lookin awesome!! And Keaton, you are huge. Stop that right now mister. I think you've out grown me, like you're taller than me..? Whaaa? Whyyyyy?!

Okay but for reals, I had a great week and I realized that I only have like 5 transfers left basically....... woah time is flyin.

I love you guys sooooo much and I hope you have a great week filled with sunshineeee! It's been like 90 degrees the past 2 days..I LOVE IT. I don't know if I can go back to utah.

Love always, Sister Kellee Walker

And Then Comes the Heat

March 24, 2014

First of all, The weather here is wonderful!! I am sooooooo happy to be here and not in Utah.. hahaha (: None of that 60 degree weather you're talking about. We are all the way up in the 80's this week which has been super duper!

So there has been a lot of great things happen this week and I don't really know where to begin so i'll kinda just scatter all over the place. Enjoy!!

Another wonderful week!! I have just been so full of gratitude and joy lately and i really really like it. I think a lot of it has to do with my prayers. I've been focusing my prayers more on others and to make them more meaningful. I've just really been feelings gods love for me and it makes me happy! We also had zone conference this week which was soooo fun!! Three other zones got together and we had like an all day training on repentance and how to teach our investigators to repent and how to repent ourselves! We learned that there are now around 80 sisters in the missions which is one third of all the missionaries here!! Crazy right? I also learned a lot about meekness and I learned that it is a mix between humility and reverence. It involves being quiet enough, both spiritually and physically so that we can hear the still small voice. It doesn't exactly mean, "Be silent", but more like "be humble enough to pay attention." I learned that meekness allows the channels of revelation to be opened and humility means we receive revelation when it comes. So basically being meek enough to receive an answer. 

And something you said Mom that really has got me thinking a lot lately was when you were quoting Aunt Jill when she said that missionaries have a protective bubble around them and Satan can't break that bubble. Well here is my opinion on that one. There are soooo many ways Satan gets to the missionaries. He can't get us with Media like he can with the world, but he gets us with our thoughts and our actions. He finds ways to tell us we know nothing and to get us discouraged. Almost from the moment we wake up, he's there, whispering and making us feel so small. I don't think people fully understand the trials and pressures that missionaries go through. I know we aren't supposed to let our selves get discouraged but it's hard when satan is constantly at your side. Our bodies are physically exhausted. It doesn't matter how many naps we take, We're still exhausted. Our spirit gets exhausted sometimes too and then the inadequate thoughts come. I have found great strength though in D&C 78:17-19. I truly am a little child and physically cannot bear all things so i need to be of good cheer because he will lead me along. and the promise is that if i receive all with thankfulness,i shall be made glorious and the blessings of eternity will be mine. So yes, things aren't always bright and beautiful, but when you are striving to become like Christ and you're living up to the covenant's you  made at baptism, you can find beauty in ALL things. I promise you that. And so here are some goals I decided to write in my journal and share with you!!

GOALS:
Let go of what I cannot control.
Listen to the spirit, not negativity.
Expect challenges to come to loved ones & respect their choices
Ask the Lord to help me see my weaknesses so they can become strengths.
Fast and pray for understanding and strength
And Forget Myself and Go to Work.

So there you have it. This week has mostly been a wake up call for me. It's been good though. I've just been worried so much about missing things with my friends and family.. but honestly, I have the rest of eternity to catch up with them, when I only have 18 months to do this important work. It's just a struggle sometimes, that's all. 
But I found this quote that i really liked by Elder Busche.
"The pain of sacrifice lasts only one moment. It is the fear or the pain of sacrifice that makes you hesitate to do it." 

I hope you guys have a good week. Because I'll be praying for you guys (:

Love you tons. Love, Sister Walker

p.s. The house is going to look soooo different!! It's freaking me out!
p.s.s WWJD stands for What Would Jesus Do. It's a grown up way to say CTR
p.s.s.s I have received the package with the doterra foot stuff and contacts and medical history stuff. THANK YOU SO MUCH. My foot has been burning and that foot stuff has been helping little by little so thank you. and thanks for the contacts!

p.s.s.s.s DO YOUR HOMEWORK KEATON! You'll regret it, i promise!!

I think i answered all your questions. (:
Love you all.

Let's Get Down To Business

March 17, 2014

Keaton!! You are so freaking grown up!! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! I can't believe how huge you are!! And the outlines of your shoes and feet?! Holy crud, my feet are so small compared to yours! I outlined mine over yours and I'm sending them home so you can see. hahaha it's so funny! I don't even want to know how huge your hands are! Plus, in all the pictures, you're like as tall as mom. Totally not okay. That means you are as tall or even taller than me. When did you grow up? :'( I feel kind of like i'm missing out on the most important part of your life.. Will you promise me that we will spend a LOT of time together when I get home? And have sleep overs in the trailer and go to taco amigo together to get fries and dr pepper? GOOD! And congrats with your ballroom! I'm excited to watch the videos mom has of you!! I really am soooo proud of you Keaton! Keep up the great work!! And write me more letters about how things are going! And draw me pictures (: LOVE YOU!!

Mom!! I'm not sure what DropBox is? But all i know is as of now, we aren't allowed to watch videos..? But I will double check with President and let you know!! And for my poor little feet's.. I have been taking ibuprofen and icing it and using my orthodics.. hahaha (: It's not so much that it hurts, but it is more uncomfortable and it feels like it snags and then it burns. A lot of the time I have a really strange burning sensation around the bone part of my foot. So maybe ask dr foot man (I kinda forgot his name) And let me know what he says!! And I'll talk to sister killpack about it just so she is aware of the situation!! Also, I'm getting my hair cut today for freeeeeeee! (: I'm excited but a little nervous. And thank you mom for making my birthday and hump day a special one! It was already special because I spent it serving, but you guys just spoiled me rotten!! So thank you for that (: I'm sending a package home filled with things that are just taking up room along with my old purse. The new one you sent is PERFECT! It fits my scriptures and wallet and everything perfectly. Plus it's cute, so BONUS! I think I answered all your questions.. haha sorry. Did you get my package I sent a while ago that had some shoes and markers in it? LOVE YOU!!

Dad!! I love you so so so so so much!! How did I get so blessed with a wonderful papa who loves me with all his heart and is so willing to sacrifice and help me with anything & everything? I have just been feeling very full of love lately & I really like it (: Thank you for finding my orthodics.. hahaa Silly me. So forgetful. I have been wearing them everyday since and have seen a wee bit of progress with pain, so thank you!! And the kitchen looks soooooo awesome!! It is going to be so strange walking into a new house!! How is Teeko doing? I miss him a lot. Is he blind yet? Does he still bark at helicopters? OH! Speaking of air travel.. did you know there is an air show in Tucson this weekend? ;) Sounds like your kinda party, yeah? Also, you should grow a beard again. LOVE YOU!! 

WOAH! My 10 minute warning went off so I better type faster!!
Here is a run down of my week:

On my birthday, we had our regular studies and then Sister Delap and I had an 11:00 Celebration Hour where mustaches were worn, gifts were opened and many funs were had! Then we went over to our investigators house (Ariel and Lux) to watch the Restoration DVD with them and Lux was in her room and apparently was having a bad day. So Ariel was all like, "Sister Walker, maybe you should try talking to her." So I went over to her room, knocked on her door and we had an awesome heart to heart about boys and life and let me tell ya guys, it was just like talking to a little sister! I loved it soooo much (: I was able to comfort her and relate to her in so many ways!! Then we watched the DVD and it was just perfect. The spirit was able to be with us and testify of truth. Then we met this lovely lady named Josie (pernounced jozee) and I decided i really like that name. But anyways, we had a nice discussion with her and unfortunately she isn't in our area so we passed her off to the other sisters. And then the Browns in the ward spoiled me with my favorite dinner (: It was a perfect birthday. Serving the Lord and celebrating my life Heavenly Father has given me. I can honestly say I don't think I've ever thought of a birthday in that way before. It was a great experience for me!!

Then it was my 9 month mark and we went out to cold stone and I got Sweet Cream ice cream and Cookie Dough (: YUM!! Less than 9 months to go.. Its so strange how time works as a missionary. 

ALSO!! Even though Sharon and Donella aren't in our ward boundaries any more, we got permission to have dinner with them on Saturday and oh man, they are strong converts!! They both have callings already and are loving the church!! (: I hope you get to meet them one day, they are amazing amazing people & I have loved being part of their conversion!! That goes for all the people I've been able to work with (: We totally are visiting here a lot after my mish.

Welp, I love you all so so so much and i pray for you every chance I get.
Give my love to the Wrights and Kylee as well.
Everyone is getting married.. i don't like it.
LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

until next week,
