Guess what?!?
WE GOT TRAVEL PLANS!!!!! We leave on Monday! We are leaving the MTC at 130 pm, them leaving the SLC airport at 515 pm to San Fransisco where we have a 6 hour layover. So that is where I will be calling you from. I will call sometime between 725 and 1025 pm. Wish I could narrow it down more, but it depends on security and how long it takes to check in, etc. I have 15 minutes to call you, so should I call your cell phone? Anyway, after that we fly to Teipe, Taiwan (2 hour layover there), then on to Bangkok. we will get there at 1150 am on December 7th! i AM SO excited! But I am going to be a little sad to leave too!
thank you SO much for the package on thanksgiving! IT was so sweet! I really appreciated it! It sounds liek your Thanksgiving was way fun! What movie did you all go see? My Thanksgiving was great!!! We got to hear from Elder Russell M. Nelson, but Sis. Farnsworth didnt end up getting to speak, so no sitting on the stand. Otherwise i woudl ha ve been making all kinds of crazy faces at people! Great talk by him adn his wife though! THen we had a gross but really fun thanksgiving lunch. Then got to hear from a guy all aout the humanitarian work the church has done over the past year. SO GREAT!!! I know what I want to do when I get home! Then we made 8,000 injury kits that were sent to Sudan. Best part of the day, by far! I have tons of pics that I will send. (BTW. I can't send pics from the MTC, so I will be sending a ton when I get in feild!!!) THen we got to watch 17 miracles. Great movie!
So, all of our phxan (friends) left today. It was so sad, we said goodbye to all of them last night. lots of pics and handshakes. So all of the Cambodians, Hmongs, and Vietnamese are gone! IT is going to be so boring here without them! They definately were my source of entertainment here! This next week is going to be crazy tryong to get packed and ready to go though, so that should distract us. Oh, on that note, just as an FYI I have some books and stuff that I wont need in Thailand that I am going to be sending home in the next couple days or so, if you wouldn't mind holding on to them for me. Thank you thankyou thank you!
I am so glad to hear that everyone is doing well! Please send some holiday pictures! I love you all!
Mom, I cannot tell you how grateful I am for you! I got so lucky to have you as a mother! Thank you so much for being so supportive. And thank you to you and dad for making this mission possible for me, in so many ways. I couldn't do it without you love and support. This is truly the greatest thing I have ever done with my life, and I am SO grateful for the opportunity! And thanks for keeping a blog!
Well, I love you all! I will e-mail monday before I go, and call you monday night! So, til then!
Rag Khuun! Chook Dii!!
