Hey surprise surprise! I actually get to email today since the
library was closed for Memorial Day so I get another added birthday
present right here :D
Yeah I did all the celebrating
yesterday/ kinda throughout last week. I splurged a little bit too much
but I really really enjoyed my birthday present. I didn't quite know
what you meant when you said the extra was for cushion so I'll just
let yall know what I did with it. I got myself a sweet watch from
Walmart that I was in dire need of. My ol snap band watch fell apart in
my last area, so I've been watchless for quite some time now. I really
like the watch I got and I will forever remain in thanks to yall for it. Then yesterday Brother Putich, the young
men's president in the branch gave us a ride up to North Myrtle Beach
where we went to this place called Alligator Adventure and got to see
lots of live alligators, and some snakes and birds and things. But the
alligators were the best part. Then
we ate at this buffet called Ryan's. It's basically like a Golden Corral
so that was good. And then we went to a gift
shop where I bought some cool stuff. I had a great
birthday! Honestly, it is so nice because I'm in an area where I'm not
too far from Myrtle Beach so there are so many cool things to do! But
with no income coming in at the moment, I'm a little shorthanded as far
as going and enjoying some of the attractions out there. So basically I
couldn't have asked for a better gift :) Yesterday was so much fun!
The temple trip is two Mondays from now so I'll let you know all about that when that happens.
And Brother
and Sister Weatherford (the lady you almost got to meet at the
temple) invited us over for lunch and we watched Sister Monson's funeral
as we ate. That was a really good service.
There really isn't anything better than being a missionary. We're
meeting some great people and having a lot of fun so things are going so
well. I'm just a little sad that I'll be most likely leaving the area
here soon. You never really know but it's looking like that's what will
happen. But I'm content with wherever God needs me. I know I'm going to
love wherever I am because no matter where I go, I'll still get to be a
missionary :) I think the love for these area's just comes more from the
fact that I'm a missionary here. I'm so excited to hear about all the
great missionaries that are being sent out. They're going to be so
great! I love the hastening of this work! There's so much happening in
the world and God's work is rolling forward unceasingly. I feel honored
to be able to be a part of it.
I'm learning so much out here I can't even believe it. My testimony
is growing so much. I just love the gospel with all my heart. It's pure
happiness. Even when my situations tough, the Savior's pulling me
through it. I know there isn't anything that will happen to me that God
won't help me endure in happiness. I love that about these precious
truths.
Love yall! Thanks again so much for everything that made my birthday special :D
