Really Great News!


So the other day I was checking my e-mails and I got one from my mission trainer and she sent me the pictures and article for the ground-breaking of the Manaus Temple!!!!! I was so excited that I cried! The people there sacrifice so much to go to the temple. One of my dreams was to have a temple there and now it's coming true. Happy day!!
Another fun tidbit of info is that I am going to have two new roomies by the end of next week! One of my roommates got married and the other decided to take a good opportunity she was offered and off she goes too. But in all reality it's a great thing because I have two really good friends from my ward that are closer to my age that will be movig in with me. I am really excited. We are going to have a blast!! Yay for good changes.

Progress


Life is good. Today I have the day off and I am just getting random things done around the house.... Kinda boring actually. One thing that I don't think I wrote about was my new calling!! I am the Visiting Teaching Coordinator of my ward now. I actually really like it because it is a lot more involved and it is an excellent way for me to become familiar with the girls in my ward.

One thing I am kinda struggling with is how everyone else seems to be taking off in their lives. I found out that Carly Everett is pregnant with her second!!!! I'm so happy for her. Carly Bingham is expecting. Shay is such a cute pregnant lady don't you think?!!.... and then there's me. Not going to school, not married or close to it... just watching everyone else take off. But if that's what life has to deal me.... SO BE IT!!!!

I AM having fun living up here. I am meeting new friends by the day and enjoying the heck out of it.

I think I'm gonna go make some cookies. : )
