1 year!!

It's been 1 year since I've gone through the temple for myself! I can't express the gratitude I feel for being able to attend the temple and that I have one 45 minutes from my house! That blessings that have come from it are absolutely incredible! I absolutely love the temple, and cannot wait to go again when I go back home!!
In the temple we make convents - special promises with God - that eternally bind us to Him and help us throughout the rest of our lives! Through these convents, men and women can be sealed together as husband and wife for all eternity, and there kids will also be with then forever. This is why I love and miss the temple so much. It's because not only will we receive greater blessings, we can also be together as families forever!
I cannot wait to have the opportunity to go again soon! The temple just gives me the peace and strength that I need to keep going through my week, and it gives me that break from the world that we all need!

Service was good, I asked the people we were working with why is it called a shipment in a car, and cargo on a ship. The guy who answered tried his best to explain,  but I just kept making it harder, but it was funny!  Interviews went well, for me anyway.

  Helloooooo all!!! How was the week? Mine was a bit crazy, so here we go!! Wednesday we said goodbye to the mtc, and our district :((( Hope to see you soon 10-G.  Thursday we had to get up very early, finished packing. And then left to catch our plane. The flight to Ohio was good, a little bumpy because of some turbulence, but after that it was smooth. We landed in Ohio, got our group together,(or so we thought as we later discovered that one of the sisters who came with us wasn't in our group) but it's all good, because she found us. Met the mission president, his wife, and assistants, and then off we went to the mission home.  Fun fact: the Cincinnati Airport is actually in Kentucky, so we had to drive to Cincinnati.  We stayed at the mission home the first night, and then Friday morning we were off to get assigned to trainers and areas! All the sisters in my district that came to Cincinnati with me,(sisters Dahle, Wilkes, and Thayne) are all in different areas, spread out a
