It's Cold LOL (11-6-17)


    Picture: Me and Elder Hancock have Christmas Spirit :) 

Hellooooooo everybody!! What a wonderful week it has been! It's the 6 day of November and it has decided to snow!! We have had a few days of snow here in Everret Washington. Riding bikes in the snow is fantastic :) 

PRIESTHOOD: Man have we had some neat experiences with priesthood blessings this last week. Sister Tidwell was in my mtc district and is just a super fun person. Her dad passed away this last week after a long battle with cancer. A few nights ago we had 8 priesthood holders (6 were missionaries) participate in a blessing of comfort. Maaan the spirit was sooooo strong, after the blessing i took a look around at all of the Elders and it just hit me how blessed we are to have the Priesthood authority in these days. Seeing all those priesthood holders together was just soooo coooool.

This morning i had the wonderful opportunity to give a blessing. There is a part member family we are teaching and they are going through this big process to get custody of the husbands daughter. I gave the mother a blessing while Elder Hancock gave the husband a blessing. Soooooo cool. I was nervous because it was the first time i had given a blessing. My legs were shaking like crazzyy. But i gave her a blessing and all was well. That was another super cool spiritual experience :)

Time flies! I feel like i was just emailing last week!! I hope ya'll have a great week! We are entering the Holiday seasons!! Perfect time to remember Christ :) I'm so grateful for our Lord and Savior :) The Book of Mormon is true!!!!!

HELLO EVERYBODY!!!! Its my first p-day and im nearly done with my first week here at the mtc! and i LOVE IT. The new building is amazing. The murals are sooo beautiful and cool! IM so grateful that i have my classes in the new building. Its pretty nice here because we basically have our schedules planned out for us. Its about 50/50 here when it comes to food. Sometimes you get somethin good and sometimes you dont. The chocolate milk and maple bars are the BOMB. Ive decided to stop eating desserts and drinking chocolate milk because i dont plan on sending pictures of me looking fat. Misisonary Kort = healthy Kort. Speaking of being healthy...I LOVE MTC BALL. the no dunking rule really kinda kills my vibe though. I dont have an opportunity to show off my hops heheh But for real exercise time is so nice. takes away the awesome stress of the mtc and makes me feel at home. Ive seen soooooooooooo many people i know here! Grant ellison, who just left for nashville yesterday, was my...

HELLO MY FRIENDS! What a wonderful Conference weekend it has been! It was so flipping amazing. I've never gotten sooo much out of General conference before! Maybe it's because i didnt fall alseep lol So many great talks it's hard to choose a favorite. One that hit me really hard was President Nelson's talk. He asked the question "How precious is The Book of Mormon to you?" It was like a round house kick to the face. I need to strengthen my testimony on The Book of Mormon!!!!!!! I went on my first exchange this last week! Me and Elder Goodfellow (he is a very good fellow btw) had a blast. I was able to explore a new area, meet new people and LEARN. While on exchange we did some service at this assisted living home. Me and Elder Goodfellow helped about 10 old ladies "exercise" hehe we sat in chairs in a big circle and tossed a big balloon around LOL it was so much fun! Some of the ladies had it out for us because they wou...

Helloooooo!!! This whole week has been a blur. But so many cool things happened!! I went on splits again! This time with Elder Dalley. We were in the mtc together and are both newbies but we killed it! We talked with some crazy people but what's new? lol This email will be short and sweet. Hearing about weber gets me so hyped!! I wish they were that good when i was there lol crossing my fingers that they are still good 2 years from now hehe maybe byu is doing bad because they've started selling caffeinated drinks?? lolol I could be eating a little better. If it werent for biking i would probably have gained 10 pounds already... but that jump rope is awesome!!! I have a perfect spot to jump rope. Our apartment has a little patio that i go and jump on. :) our apartment also has a little work out room. Its got some treadmills, dumb bells, and a bow flex type machine. So we go and exercise there every once in a while. The weather has been nice. Its cool but t...
