Heading to the MTC
Dear family,
Well, here's your letter you've been waiting for from your lady missionary! Saturday Steve brought me to the mission home and dropped me off at the front door. The Sunday before that Rick & Nancy drove me to grandma and grandpa choates house in Kanosh where we spent the night. Rick talked me into going to Arizona with them and then get a ride back with one of his friends. We woke up at six and left at eight. Grandpa gave me some money! We drove 8 hrs. to Ricks cabin in Flagstaff and spent the night. Then we drove to Pheonix and spent the night. The next day we drove to Tucson to see Julie and Alan. That was great. Shane is the most beautiful child you've ever seen. I drove back to Pheonix and tried to see Ron Morehouse (old boyfriend) but he wasn't home. I went to bed only to get up again at 5:30 and drive back to Provo with Ricks friend. By the time I got to the mission home on Saturday, I was so worn out I could hardly stay awake the rest of the day.
These past few days have been the most exhausting days of my life. Up at 5:00 to bed at 11:00.
We sit all day and read, study, memorize! The Lord has blessed me with the3 most intelligent companion. She is blind. We are great together. I read everything to her, she memorizes it very quickly. She goes over it with me about 10 times! I feel so ignorant sometimes. We have been fasting from Sunday a full 24 hrs. until tonight Monday. We woke today at 5:30 and went to the Salt Lake Temple. I loved the beauty of this temple. After the first session we were permitted to attend the Solemn Assembly room. Elder O. Leslie Stone answered any questions we had on the temple. President Boyer (temple President) also spoke. It was great. Then we went back to the temple for a second session. Well, back to study.
Bye

P.S. You are lucky to get this letter. There is no time for letters in the home. I snuck some time!

Letters
Hi Family,
As you know, I am organizing all our family pictures from all our past. I am then scanning them onto my computer and then making a zip drive of them, one for each family. It is a labor of love and I think it will be a real treasure for all of you. I have also organized for each of you all the memorabilia from your childhoods including notes, school projects, certificates, etc. When I am done I will give each of you all the originals to do with what you want. I have already done all of dad, myself, Regan, and now will begin Leah. While organizing all this stuff, I found a binder that my mother kept of many of my letters home from my mission and then some letters I wrote to my parents while raising my family. Those letters are priceless because I always tell the cute things you kids were up to.
I am going to start to blog those letters so you can see who your mother was back when, so look to the blog each day for the latest update!
My love for all of you is because of the Lord's Plan of Salvation which I cherish more than anything in my life.
May He continue to bless our little family.
Love, Mom
