I Absolutely LOVE THE TEMPLE!



We had a Great day! Our entire zone got to go up to the Sacrmamento Temple! We woke up at 4 so we could be ready and be on time! It was a miracle for us all to be there because it is so far away and it is hard to find members in the spanish ward with a car to take us. We found a perfect member with a big 8 passenger van that could take half of us, so we found a car for the other 4. Well, the driver picking up the elders got in a wreck, so we piled the elders in with us. It was so funny! I sat on a lawn chair (no seat belt) and we squoze 6 elders in the back. There were shades that pulled down on all the windows so no one could see in! I have a new appreciation for those that cram in the back of a van to cross the border!

My birthday cakes! Check out the green turkey poop!

Thank you, thank you for the flip flops! It was so cute and I loved them so much! It was so fun receiving them in the mail! One day I received 25 letters! Wow! Talk about making my day! So my birthday was great. We pretty much celebrated it all week! On my birthday, we ate lots of food! We went to a members and she made me the funniest cake EVER! I don't know where it came from but somewhere they got the idea I grew up on a turkey farm so she made me a cake with "turkey poop" on it! It was soooo funny!

We alos had dinner with a member that night and my first companion showed up! It was so fun to see her, she was visiting the mission with her mother. The sisters had decorated our apartment, gave me a crown and sash. Anyway, it was a great day and I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone that sent a flip flop! I loved everyone of them!
