AUGUST 6TH BABY!!

Im so proud of Nathan and of my best friends. I try to imagine my life without them 3 in my life and I really dont know how it would be. I'm so glad to have 3 people that will always help me stay true as friends and will help me be better than I am always. I cant even begin to imagine how the mission has changed us four. I will be forever grateful for the mission changing my life, but also the lives of my 3 best friends. I'm so glad to know they have passed for some of the same experiences that I have here on the mission.

That's awesome that yall are working out! That's my momma! Keep at it. Like I always say, consistency is key when it comes to work out. You can work out for 2 hours 7 days a week, but if you stop after 3 weeks it won't do much. Keep Abby going strong. I'm already ready for my smoothies at home!!😊

I will continue praying for the house! I hope it all goes through and you guys can take a big breath. 

That's so awesome about there son. That's like my DREAM. Idk about living in New York city but to do an internship there for a summer would be super sick. I can't believe that Will be me in a couple years. Im excited to do all that as well. 

But the mission is going great. I love the way I've learned to feel the spirit on the mission. Thats something that will always help keep my testimony strong. Every week if I can feel the spirit testifying to me that the church is true, then I have a literal testimony coming from the Trinity. I wont ever be able to deny that. Im so grateful that I've been able to feel it so many times on my mission. Because before my mission I remember only feeling the spirit a handful of times. Im sure I wasnt as succeptible to it and that why i didnt feel it as much, but Im grateful for how I feel it now. 

I love you momma! thanks for always supporting me and thanks helping throughout my mission and help me be who i am today. I love you!

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 ...
