April 28, 2014

hey yal!
Man mom, sounds like a crazy week for ya! Hope it was good though! Man my smile went through the roof hearin about church yesterday for yal that's so legit! Isn't it amazing the feeling you get from bearing testimony of some part of the Doctrine of Christ. Something that means everything to us and always comes straight from the heart and just means the world and is precious above all our stuff and things that we "claim" are our favorite things. Nothing compares to a testimony of Christ and the miraculous task He performed of shouldering alone our Salvation. Watched that "Because of Him" video like 20 times this week and it hits me every time when it shows the earth and is like we all will live again. It hit me.... we ALL.... like the guy that cuts you off in traffic. the one that pulled your hair in 3rd grade, the one that you love to death, the one that just bugs you, the stranger down the street and everyone else! will live again because of Him! that's huge! absolutely crazy!
haha mom don't stress! Watch this ....it always helps me!
Its a simple truth but man it can really help. Plus equally.... yoke yourself to Christ, Alma 7.12 teaches us that he didn't just take every sin upon him but every ill feeling , every stress, every anxiety, every hurt and headache and stubbed toe and sadness and happiness and love and joy... he felt it all! so He can help! Just like in Matthew.... come unto him for his yoke is easy and his burden is light. All that stress will go away and you'll be able to handle it all :) I know it!
UVU is my 1st choice.... its got the degree I want! thanks!! Me an Hardy are looking at ways to live together down there. He's goin to the Y so well see what happens.
I'll be prayin for Bishop and Uncle Lloyd.
This week was crazy! We stretched like a rubber band and got the most lessons this area has seen in a week! It was bomb! We are so happy!! Well I am... Tripp doesn't show much emotion lol but hey its all good! Best thing ever! This guy Cleve said hi to us and asked us what ward he is in and so we turned around and chatted. He's a member! baptized on the Church's bday in 2000 it was legit! but he had some hard times and didn't know where the Church was and so within a week get this.... he called and met with the bishop, met with us twice and wants to do service with us! holy cow! Hes flying!! Everyone we tell about him just lights up and is like that's so cool! and it is!!! love him! He sells cars for a livin and is workin with one of the kennys in the bay area to lease his 1st dealership! its legit I'm so excited for him!! oh man its bomb! oh so guess how much service we did this week... normal is like 10-12. we did 24 hrs! it was so fun! I love service! As bad as it is to say if there was a disaster here and we had to just help people here I'd be so down! The ward is lovin us! We're just chattin em up and workin our tail off for em and its payin off with respect points haha I wish more with dinner points but oh well.  I'm so tired lol so tired.... like I can sleep standing up now its that bad.... so one of the services a LA showed up from Saratoga ward and we worked with him and he invited us to his place. He's got 50 acres in richy Saratoga! It's insane but we're going to play beach volleyball today in a few hrs I'm so excited!! love it!! Plus is gonna get real warm this week so that's even better! love it here!! best ever.
Life is so good. I'm lovin it. The only thing that stinks is Sanchez and Tripp destroy the kitchen lol its so gross!! And they don't clean up so me and Zollinger usually do. haha Sanchez left the garlic out and open all night it was so gross.... oh well haha love ya guys so much! Thanks for the prayers and support! You are rockstars!! Mother's day in what 2 weeks? whose counting?? haha love ya!
