Did you see your classes?  Dude! You got every class but the Phil 201 class!  You're on the wait list for that.  That is so awesome!  

Well its been a crazy, hard week.  I'm still in utah and leave Wednesday morning.  The good part is that Dani has been very responsive to me and has let me spend lots of time with her and the girls.  Today I took the girls to the park (twice), Costco and mcdonalds for happy meals.  I had them for about 5 hours and I'm EXHAUSTED!!! lol.  It's a lot of work! At the end of the day, Winnie told me "I miss my Daddy." It just broke my heart.  Dani is barely holding it together but seems stronger than I imagined she would be.  She just wears Denny's clothes and looks really tired.  Im really worried about her.  She is so worried about her finances and how she will take care of the girls.Someone made a GoFundMe and it is up to about $33,000.  But she needs like a year of income so she can focus on healing and helping the girls heal too. She has so many good people in her ward, friends and church leaders.  She actually went to church on Sunday which was a great first step.  Her bishop told her,"you have the choice to go down one of two paths right now. You can go down a very dark path that will be hard to get out of, or you can go down a path of healing and strength.  It won't be easy but it will help you have a good life."  So she is pretty determined to at least try to stay on that path.  Please keep her in your prayers.

I'm going to have lunch with Liz Blaser tomorrow. I'm really happy I get to see her. So Kate's boyfriend got home in December and wrote to her every night of his mission in a journal and they were devoted to each other the entire 2 years.  Then within 10 days of getting home, he blew her off without an explanation.  uGH! I feel so bad for her.  

I don't have much to report this week. The most exciting thing is my seminary class brought 8 non member friends to seminary last week.  Apparently one girl came back today because she liked it so much.  I'm anxious to get back to them and see how it all went.  

Tell me about all 8 people that came to church this week!  That is awesome!
What else did you do this week?

I love you sweet boy.  I'll write a better letter next week when I'm home. Im anxious to hear about your week! i love you so much G!!!  I'll leave you with a quick spiritual thought:

"Our actions are the evidence of our belief." = Elder L. Whitney Clayton  Simple but so important!

Happy happy 6 months Elder G!!!  That is so exciting!  Are you going to burn a tie today?  Isn't that the tradition?? That feels pretty amazing to have 25% done.  How are you doing my love?  Are you feeling strength and comfort?  I pray for it everyday for you.  You are constantly on our minds and hearts and in our prayers.  We talk about you many times every day.  You are such an important part of our family and I miss you soooo very much.   I know you've had some very rough weeks but I pray that you are feeling stronger.  I read something this week that made me think of you.  D&C 101:36 says that "in this life your joy is not full, but in me your joy is full."  Sometimes in life we just won't feel happy.  If we are expecting to be happy 100% all of the time, we will be 100% disappointed.  Because this life is a probationary state, we will have struggles, trials and hardships.  But I love t...

Yo yo momma, so transfers will be next week. SO in my email next week i will let you guys know. I really think that ill stay here. This area definitely has its problems but i also love it here and i really wanna stay here one more transfer. Plus it will be great to settle in with Alessandra and Lucianno after their baptism as members of the church. So btw...our prayers were answered!!! We went there on Monday night and I was sweating the whole time thinking about what i would say to firm them up for baptism. I started to talk a little bit about marriage and how it was preparing them for baptism and she literally cuts me off out of nowhere and asks "So what time will the baptism be on Saturday?" I felt the spirit soooo strongly and felt like it was an answer to my prayers and it was the Lord saying "dont worry i got this one". since then they are gotten super firm. They talk about raising a family in this church, temple marriage, and even serving a couples mission!!!...

Hey buddy!    I’m glad I finally get a chance to sit down and write. Baby stuff has taken over my life but we are very excited to have Harper with us in the next few weeks. Excited for you to meet your new little cousin when you return. Sounds like you are doing really well! I know you’ve had minor struggles and home sickness along the way, but it’s good to see you pumped and positive. Sounds like you’re doing a great job!     Hey listen, I know everyone has chimed in on the girl situation and you’re probably tired of talking about it at this point, but I wanted to try to talk to you about it as well because I’ve had the unwelcome pleasure of going through 3 life changing heart breaks that I never thought I’d recover from so I can speak to you from experience and hopefully put some perspective on things.     I had been with Alicia for 5 years, we were in love but it was more than that. It was how the family loved her, how much I loved her family and ...
