Ster is looking super good!!!!! Wow he has really....changed a ton!!! Thats so cool to see:) wierd....but cool:) Actually it was funny because this week we contacted this guy and he didnt speak spanish so i started speaking in english and turns out he is from the philipenes! We had a solid conversation, super cool guy and it just made me think of sterling haha:)
Thats great to hear that the trip all went great, everyone was safe and no harm was done:) I cant wait to join the fam, its gonna be killer:) And the new flyboard looks super sweet! whats the difference?? i see that its still powered by the jetski, i thought that it might have been the one where the person can control it themselves but no:) In the end did you guys end up buying the skate one?? that one seems sweet aswell:)
Wow, so good to hear that business is going crazy good! As the end of my mission is coming up i have been thinking a bit on how it is i can apply all that i have learned in my future business life which will be super awesome:) So that means once dad buys back the SLC stores brian will then buy the rights to them? that'd be crazy sweet!!
Football season is starting up soon!! So pumped to see how scott has advanced and how it is he plays now, (see if he is a man now;)) haha So pumped for that:)
Ky came home, thats super sad to hear...but the good thing is that its better for his health. Before i would never had understood that but in these last 7 months i have been able so see really all behind those decisions and i know that its really what the lord would have him do:) Will he have the chance to serve in another mission? or is it the end? Byron is a missionary now!?! WOW!!!! All the "youngins" are becoming real men now!! Makes me super happy to hear that, they will be killing it as they dedicate their all to the lord:)
HAHAAHA mom, wait....your not 30??;) oops;) haah but thats really awesome that that happened, everyone that sees pictures of you and dad are shocked to hear that you guys are 50 and they go nuts haahah keep it up mom, your killing it:)
Well another week has just flown right by!! Its crazy how time works.....But this week has really been spectacular:) Elder Young and i have been focusing a lot on our progressing families and looking for ways that members will be able to help them in thier conversion instead of us, and it has worked perfectly:) On sunday we confirmed 13 lessons with families and members to join us!! Its awesome to see how as we just truly focus on strengthening the ward, baptisms will just come as a result. I was reading my setting apart blessing and it has always called my attention one part that says, "a great work you have been called to do is to strengthen the wards, branches, and districts that you are called to serve in" and i always had thought that that meant just by baptizing people or reactivating would be our part. But i have come to realize that its true...but there is a better and more effecient way to do it. By strengthening those members that are active and having them do the missionary work as we help them complete with it:) I love that i have the chance to put this in practice for the next few weeks and the rest of my life, This is going to be a great few weeks:)
Also i have been studying a few talks from general conference and there was 1 message that i really loved this week. Its "Always Remember Him" by Elder Gerrit w. Gong. I love how it states about the importance of Remembering the lord in all things and really forgetting the things that are holding us back from progressing, like sins that we have commited and how we need to forgive and forget our selves so that we can remember the lord and put him infront of all things. Its Incredible to see how as i have strived to forget the errors and remember the lord i have seen the lord take control and i have been able to be a true instrument in his hands:)
I love you so much:)
Have a great Girlscamp!1
