i LOVE to see the Temple!

St George Temple

So I had a few people ask about this weekend. I received my endownment from the St. George, Utah Temple. It could not have been more perfect. The temple workers were the sweetest, cutest old ladies- and there were 3-4 of them by my side at all times. It felt so special. I have never felt the Spirit so strong in my life. Growing up I remember singing "I love to see the temple, I'm going there someday." Well on Saturday I went there! I know that it truly is the House of the Lord. I love when President Packer says, "Come to the Temple, if not now, soon." Go- and go often. I truly do LOVE to see the Temple.

TEXAS!

Oh my goodness! I LOVE Texas. I have been called to serve as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Houston, Texas South Mission. I will be speaking Spanish, and I report to the MTC on July 18th.

Here is what I know about Texas- They love BBQ (hello wonderful!), is it SUPER hot and humid (again- how perfect!), when it rains it is HOT (oh how i love this), and I get to speak my favorite language on Earth- SPANISH! :) What else do I need to know?!

Before my call I was a little skeptic of serving state-side, but really this mission is the most perfect one for me. I know this- and I have not even gone yet! I would love to hear from anyone who has served there, lived there, been there- whatever! :)

oh mission call :)

guys- it is HERE. i have it in my hand (well not right now, because  i am typing...but you get what i mean). I cannot wait to open it.

as a kid at Christmas i was the sneaky kid that would go downstairs and start looking at what toys santa brought at one am...the waiting is killing :) but this means i will have extrememely good news tonight! be back on soon!
