We rented a condo up in eden, a half hour up to he mt from ogden. We
didn't do too much, but we got to visit with lots of friends and most
importantly just hang out as a family with melissa.
We watched a lot of family fued and we brought the wii along and played
games. The condo was nice and had racquet ball courts, pool table, hot tub,
tennis and basketball.
The most fun and enjoyable part for me was just to relax and be goofy with
my family. Watching melissa, keagan, and aurora tackle each other and tease
each other. I'm so grateful for forever families!!!!
As you can see melissa hasn't changed much.. by the pictures. . She's still
as goofy as ever. That is one of the many things I miss and love about her. A
dollar bill fell beside the washer and dryer and I told miss and keagan whoever
found it could have it, so they were so funny and "fighting" over who could get
it.. and then with keagans bum n the air miss couldn't resist (pretending) to
spank him. It was a few days of just being silly together. Our tv had the game
show channel. I don't know how many episodes of family fued we watched and
yelled out our answers. So fun!
We did go up to logan one evening and saw our rms price and Anderson. That
was fun! And then we met up with some of the falter family for ice cream. They
were there visiting kylee and lauren. We were joking that we have to come all
the way to utah to see each other! Ha!
We also went to provo one day and saw where miss lives and works. W had
dinner at cafe rio with our other rm, kearney. The food was awesome, I'd never
been there before.
Yesterday, I got to go with the youth of their baptism temple trip. It was
wonderful. I also got tg o ride up with Jemma Williamson and visit with her.
That was pretty great, too! The spirit was strong! I got to hand out the towels.
That's actually my favorite job.. I've done it a few other times. It's great to
be able to see them up close and the glow of their faces!!
Today was fast and testimony meeting because of conference last week. It
was one of the best in a long time! Bishop said a few words before about what a
testimony is and to keep it brief. I think that really helped the spirit! Keagan
bore his testimony and that really made me a mess... hahaha and then we sang, I
know my Redeemer lives. That one I can hardly ever get through. We also had a
family move in that has a deacon son!!!! For passing the sacrament today, one of
the ym had to go sit down!!! That has never happened! Exciting times!! :)
I love you all so much! I pray for you often!
Love,
Sis Shoop
