05-29-2012

So Memorial Day is sad because the Library is closed :-( so that's why I'm writing today. PDay is still Monday though! This week has been super awesome! In fact it has been so awesome that it deserves a CACHOW! (In Honor of Elder Orton). All cachows must be said outloud. So if you didn't say it out loud, please go back and say it now. Thank you. We met some awesome investigators this week, Matthew and Ashley. They just had a new baby girl and they really understand the importance of family. They are changing their lives around and coming to Christ so that their daughter can have the best life possible. I am excited to continue to teach and learn from them. We also met a couple, Michelle and Wesley, who have actually been studying the Church. Michelle was very surprised at how much our beliefs mirror her own. They have a lot of good information and really great questions. Unfortunately, they will be in Chicago for 3 weeks so we can't talk to them again until the end of June. But they want to meet with us again and ask more questions and learn more! We are very excited.

Exciting news: this week is my very first exchange! I will be going to Marysville with Sister O'Brian on Wednesday so that should be super fun :-) I'll let you know all about it next week!

My hero today is Jacob. The scripture is 2 Nephi 9:49. Read it and figure out why :-) (I love the word 'abhorroth' it's pretty great).

Also check out Hebrews 6:10-20 (especially 10-15); 1 Timothy 4:12; 1 Peter 4:8 and page 118 in PMG about charity. Those are things that really stuck out to me this week.

Megan and Justin... HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! I can't believe you've been married fr 5 years! I love you both and hope you have a wonderful anniversary celebration!

Landon... you're down to 8 days! I'm sure youre very excited to go! I was told that your farewell talk was amazing! I am so proud of you bud. You will love the MTC. Just make sure you want to love it and you work hard.

Natalie... you're a high school graduate! I thought about you Friday night. I can't believe that you're out of high school! Now you get to say "when I was in High School..." try it, it's fun!

Rachel... I bet you're so glad school is out for the summer. But you probably won't even notice beasue you'll be so busy with so many awesome activities this summer! Have fun! try to find time to write me :-)

Mom and Dad. Thank you so much for your letters. They really mean a lot to me. You guys are the best. I am so lucky to have you as my parents.

Well, that's all for now! I love you all so much! Have a wonderful week!

Annie
