How are you all doing? I am doing okay. We got transfer calls today, and I am getting transferred to a new area. 🙁 I am very sad to leave this area. I love this place!

Anyways, other than that things are good here. We had a wedding on Saturday for two of our investigators. It was awesome! She has wanted to get married for a really long time, but he never would do it. But finally it happened and they are both getting baptized this Saturday (I’m going to miss it 🙁 ). We also have another investigator getting baptized as well. His mom and his brother got baptized together like 2 months ago, but now he is finally ready. All kinds of good things are happening here! And I’m missing a lot of them. But I guess I am needed in another place.

Mami: I am very sad to hear about Herman. Give Vickie and Megan and Colin and Jase lots of love from me. I wish I could be there, but I know that wouldn’t really help anything. I also am thankful for the gospel and the knowledge that we have of what comes after this life. Death would be such a scary thing if we didn’t know what was going to happen to our loved ones, or ourselves, when this life is over. Herman is no doubt running around like there’s no tomorrow, and preaching the good word as a missionary. He and Colin will be doing the same thing pretty soon.

In other news, Sister W. is going home this Thursday, and she lives in R. So I am not sure when, but at some point, she is going to be stopping by y’all for a visit. I hope that is cool. She’ll probably share some photos and stories of the transfer that we served together. She is so awesome! I just wanted to let you know that may happen. 🙂

Papi: Ha ha. Why is it that when we cry we do things to cry more? I think everyone has done it at one point or another, but it’s so irrational. Man, I haven’t cried in a while, but I cried today reading this email. Good luck with your tree cutting. That should be fun. 🙂 Ha ha. I miss Mom’s potato salad. We ate something that was kind of like potato salad, but it was nowhere near as good as Mom’s. Her’s is still the best. 😉

Emmy: Hey, I’m glad things are good. Are you still going to send me a graduation picture?! I hope so. Sister V. was looking at a picture of her sisters the other day, and she didn’t even recognize them. I feel like I might be the same way. I don’t know what anyone looks like anymore. Well except Natasha, because mom sent me a picture of her.

Okay, so I found this dog that is the sweetest thing ever. She is a little black chihuahua mix, and she has the sweetest little face. You should try to convince mom and dad to buy a dog like her. 😉 🙂 Ha ha. Jk jk. But really she is adorable. I’m sending a picture of her.

Well, sorry this is really short, but I will be talking to all of you in less than a week!!! Wooo! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!

Love, Kelsey
