Happy Fathers Day!


Dad and I at the airport!


Thanks Dad for everything! I love you so much and hope you enjoy your fathers day! Sorry you do not get a phone call! Thanks for helping me become the person I am today, for supporting me with the greatest experience in my life! Not a day goes by that I don't regret my decision to serve a mission. It has been the most incredible journey! Every morning when that stupid alarm goes off, I can't help but be happy it does! I love you DAD!


A Great Sunday in the Mission Field!

Sunday was a very strange missionary sunday! It felt like a real Sunday! We had cheesy potatoe casserole (funeral potatoes) for lunch -first time for my companion!, We had a sunday nap (short but good), A Sunday drive (we got lost in the country), and even a sunday visit from Sister Jardine. She brought strawberries and chocolate and we all had a good talk!
Hanging out in Stockton!
Some fun people in our ward

Fathers Day Program!


Cultural Dance!
Here is just a quick update! I am really loving being in the Spanish Ward! They really know how to party! We had a Fathers Day Activity, they killed a beef for the dinner. I felt like I was at the M.C.C. (Mexican Cultural Center)! There was a fashion show with beautiful dresses from their countries. Then they all did a dance together. After, the highlight of the night was when they all came out and did a dance from Pakistan! It was...well, a belly dance! I think the fathers enjoyed the performance! It did not end there, thats when the dancing began! We enjoyed watching! It was hard not to dance!
