Kimmie came home Tuesday. And I've been dying to see her and hug her all week! Today I got to see her and hear her talk. So awesome. She was amazing and I wasn't surprised one bit!! I can't wait to visit with her more!
Something kimmie said in her talk that I just loved, "My mission didn't change me. The Atonement of Jesus Christ did." It was a great talk and sacrament meeting. And I wasn't even distracted when a toddler sitting next to us spilled their water and it got my bench so wet, it was dripping down at the end! Haha. I put my purse behind me so I didn't get wet and someone brought us paper towels!
(I stold this one from Facebook for you guys)
Jesse came home Thursday evening. And I was lucky enough to go to the airport to see him come home. Keagan came with me. Bro Shoop had to work.
Traffic was extra bad on the way up. Luckily, I left early because I got there with only a few minutes to spare. It was such a great experience. I thought for sure I was going to happy cry. But I didn't. I don't know if it was because I was so rushed, worried about if I would make it on time or that the williamsons didn't cry either. They were just soooo happy to see each other. I felt privileged to be there! He looked to happy! And tan! And he was fun to listen to. And fun to hear him try to remember the English words for things. Keagan and I got to go out to eat afterwards with them and I loved visiting with him!They were looking to see if Jesse grew on his mission!
Our car has had some slight mechanical issues lately, but have all been covered under warranty. When we take our car in to be fixed under warranty, they give us a free rental car. This weekend we took it in and got a Cadillac Escalade for our free rental car! I don't know much about cars.. But it's super fancy! All kinds of buttons and gadgets.. Heated steering wheel and seats..etc.. We looked up a year older and it was going for $54,000!!! Crazy! I would never have that expensive of a car, but it has been fun driving it for a couple of days! We feel really blessed that everything is covered under warranty and to have a free rental car!
There is a youth fireside tonight where kimmie and Jesse are speaking. I think I'm going to sneak in!
It has been rainy and windy lately here! I went to Lacey 3rd ward for ward conference and the power went out a few times in the chapel for a few seconds before church started! I'm glad it didn't go out!
I love you all and I'm grateful for your service and your testimonies. It strengthens mine. I know the Church is true and I'm grateful for it and bonds we make through it!
Have a good week!
Love,
Sis Shoop
