Happy New Year!
It was fun hearing about everyone’s Christmas and talking with your
families. From what I’ve heard it was wonderful and hard. Missionary work was
good because of the Christmas season of giving and thinking of the Savior, but
hard because people weren’t available.
Well, our little ball of energy left us Tuesday. Our home is a lot quieter.
Since she left we have just been relaxing, vegging, watching movies and such. I
think Keagan and I are in for a rude awaking tomorrow when school starts back
up! Although it will be nice to have a schedule again. I think that is one of
the great things about being a missionary is having a schedule to follow. I hope
Keagan and I aren’t too grumpy... getting up early again! We’ve been sleeping
in. At least we have something to look forward to! Next weekend is the baptism
of Jason Agtrap! We are so excited to go to it! Eugene Oregon where he goes to
school is about a 3.5 hour drive. We will drive down Sat. morning and spend the
night and come home Sunday. So that will be a fun adventure!
New Year’s eve was pretty low key for us, too. We went to the Martins and
played Apples to Apples disney version with their family while Keagan went to
the stake dance. He is still talking/texting to this girl Morgan a lot and he
was way excited to go to the dance to see her. He said that he danced with other
girls, too. Its fun and funny watching him liking girls and such!
I forgot to mention we had the missionaries over on Christmas day. It was
fun to have them, especially since we got to have them for more time. We played
apples to apples with them, too. It is fun to get to know them better.
Yesterday I got to go to a couple of baptisms. I think I’ve mentioned it
before, but one of the blessings of my stake primary calling is to go to the
child of record baptisms. It’s always so great to feel the spirit and see
families gathered together! We also had a ward convert baptism. A woman named
Jennifer Past. She has a 4 or 5 year old son that lives with her. I don’t know
much about her, but that she has been coming the last couple of weeks. The
missionaries I think met her tracting. It was really great and I’m looking
forward to getting to know her!
Sorry, not much to write about. My week consisted of saying goodbye to
Melissa, watching too much tv and folding laundry. I don’t think I even have
any pictures from this week.
Love ya!
