Good Morning!
I'm glad it sounds
like everyone is doing good. I am doing well. We have a special ring tone for
President on the phone. It is called whistling wizard. When I heard
him call and ask for me, I knew that it was about Grandpa. He just told me and said
sorry and asked if we were close. It just gets you thinking about how short of
time we have on this Earth. I'm very grateful for the Plan of Salvation and the
knowledge we have of it.
So do you remember
when I went to EFY? I think I told you that I saw Michael Pixton there. (He is
from Midland). Well Michael had a friend with him that I
met briefly in one of the classes. Anyway so fast forward to like two
weeks ago. Elder Hall and I were talking to a lady from Michigan and about
Midland. Long story short. The guy with Micheal that I met at EFY was Elder
Hall! How crazy is that?
Guess what! I studied
1 Nephi 8 earlier this week. I know your so proud! Read verses 5-11 and it
basically talks about the plan of salvation.
Guess what! I learned
how to count to ten in Dinka! Tonight before p-day is over we are going to go
learn some more from Nyakeer. She gave me a little book of dinka words to help
me learn.
Ok so what the heck is
up with everyone having babies right now!? There is seriously so
many pregnant people! AND everyone is having eye surgery. This past
week we gave four blessings. Two to pregnant ladies ready to pop and two to
people getting ready to have eye surgery. We were at dinner with the
Budingtons. Sister Budington's sister was there. She is pregnant and was
counting her contractions. We had a nice conversation about contractions
and having babies. By the end of dinner she was like having her baby basically.
They took her to the hospital when we were leaving. She really didn't end up
having it yet, but any day! I guess it is just that time of year.
So remember when you
asked me of some families I like. I couldnt think of any before, but I've
thought of some. The Bartletts. He is one of our ward mission leaders. They
have the cutest little family. Also the Johnsons. They are so missionary
minded. I love it!
I hope you are feeling
better! Last night I felt so crappy. I feel better now though so don't
worry.
Sorry I haven't taken
any pictures in awhile.. There isn't much of anything to take pictures of. Did
I tell you that Nyakeer and her family is moving to Ohio at the beginning of
August. I will miss them!
Love Elder alpin
