Are You Still With Me?


Hi Friends!

I know it's been two weeks since my last blog entry. What a slacker I am! 

I hope you had a wonderful Easter. Below are a few pictures of the latest happenings, including a touching Easter dinner picnic with neighbors, sisters and elders. Temple Square is beautiful in the Spring! The daffodils, pansies, and hyacinths are in bloom, with tulips to follow this week. I will have many more pictures of flowers and gardens within the next two weeks. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, enjoy these pictures of General Conference. I was able to attend two sessions inside the conference center. I sang with what I call “The Street Choir” on Saturday morning. I used my new mini hymn book to sing along. Wow, I got really choked up when we began to sing “Called To Serve”. I guess I always will from now on. 

 “Called to know the richness of His blessing- sons and daughters, children of a King... God our strength will be; press forward ever, Called to serve our King.” 

 I enjoyed watching the two other general sessions that followed with fellow missionary sisters inside nearby auditoriums. I made friends with a few more sisters that weekend. What a fun group!

Going to "Ladies Night" with my Sisters


I met her last year at "Ladies Night".  A few moments before taking this picture, she was talking with a friend about me, and wondered if I had been called to serve a mission yet, and where.  Just then, I walked by her!  She came over, and asked for an update.  I was excited to tell her, "I'm currently on my mission, and I'm serving HERE!" 

Ladies Night 2013- Mmmm, chocolate!
