Mom I just got the dvds TODAY and just watched them! Oh my gosh I bawled like a baby! I'll send you a picture of me right now in the library and how I looked when I finally worked up the nerve to watch his call haha

HOLY COW................................................I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN....CANADA????????????AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I CAN'T EVEN BELIEVE IT! Actually I can! It totally suits him and I'm actually pretty sure we were talking about this and Kalen said he wanted to go to Canda and that just blows my mind!!! Actually I'm pretty positive we talked about him going there and oh my goodness I am just so SO excited for him! AND HE LEAVES IN A FEW WEEKS!!!!! OH MY GOSH! When is he going through the temple??? Oh I wish I could be there SO BAD! But I will just have to be there in spirit. Ya. I sobbed like a baby when I was watching it because I was so excited for him, so proud of him, and I wish I could be there. It hit me really hard that I won't be seeing him for like 3 years and that hurt. :( I miss the kid already and now we get 2 more years to wait. BUT! I also know that he's in for an AMAZING ride. And I wouldn't want anything different for him right now. Shout out to my little brother: "I love you soooooooo much! I am SO proud of you and I know EXCATLY how you feel right now. Don't freak out...well actually ya go ahead and freak out, BUT haha know that you are doing the right thing and that literally only good things will come from this experience to serve the Lord. Also, my mission president tells us something all the time. He told us that there's no right or wrong reason to come out on a mission. THe fact that you're going on a mission is good enough, just put your heart in it and trust the Lord will be there for you because he will.   I miss you A LOT but I have a feeling that time will fly :) Plus I will write you all the time so you will always have mail...unlike you, writing me... but that's another story and I'm the bigger person ;) Be strong. Go to the right places, do the right things during this prep time and everything will be taken care of. I am SO PROUD OF YOU!! Love you with all my heart!" Ok now to kyle: "You exhaust me.....hahahah YOU SHOULD'VE KNEELED ANYWAY!!!! Now you have to live with the fact that you didn't even ask her and I can bet that she'll bring it up for the rest of your lives haha. But alas haha I am super mad that you're getting married while I'm gone but I'm glad that you have found somebody. PLEASE include me in what's going on! Colors?where?I want to meet her...through email or something haha and when are you actually tying the not? LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Send me a picture of the ring the video broke up right as you were going to show me :)"

Ok I think that's all for them. Man That was emotionally exhausting haha poor sister booms had to deal with me freaking out all over the place and squeezing her arm cause I was so nervous and she had to hunch over and listen to the whole video as she emailed cause we can't listen to headphones without our companion hearing what's going on. Man! I just am so excited and happy and proud and sad all at the same time but I will keep all of you in my prayers. I just had transfer calls again and I'M STAYING IN BERRYVILLE AND I AM SOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!! Seriously I love it here so much and I will honestly probably move back here to live in a few years or something. I don't necessarily want to raise kids here but maybe I'll live down here for a summer or something. We are DEFENITLY coming back through here mom. Also, We are taking a road trip to harry potter world when I get back and also a road trip to seattle.....I have realized just how much I loved all of our road trips and awesome family outings haha. Remember  when Cass and I really didn't want to go to South Dakota then it ended up being the best trip of my life? :) Ya. We're doing another trip. Plan it out and we'll go right after the summer semester at BYU right before I go up for the fall semester. I'm beign serious. Thank you!

Also, I have had a GREAT week! We got to go to the temple with HIlda on Thrusday and it was AWESOME!! We did baptisms and basically were gone the whole day. THen we had zone training on Friday where Siter BOoms was called up to the front to share what Christlike attributes she thinks I have and it was really sweet. SHe even cried a little haha. AND then on Saturday we decided that we are going to be amazing missionaries. We WILL talk to at least 10 random people everday about the gospel and pray to be led to the prepared and man! On Saturday we did it! We talked to 10 random people or OTMd them and got 2 new investigators and one potential. THe 2 new investigators are a couple who have been looking for a church to get baptized it...what the? ya haha it was amazing. The young women had a yard sale and we went to help out / catch people while they were scoping out cheap stuff haha we're sorta creepy but it worked! :) THEN! This sunday we had 2 of our investigators who have never come to church come! PLUS! WE HAVE 2 BAPTISMS THIS SATURDAY THAT ARE GOING TO BE HELD AT THE RIVER....cause they want it to be like Jesus' haha whatever floats your boat. :) Goodness. I love being a missionary. It's hard, it's exhausting, it's emotionally draining, and it's the best thing I could ever be apart of. :) I love the gospel and I love learning! Gotta go! We're going bowling with borther coley and his girls and proabably we'll invite a bunch of people and make it a party haha. I love you all SOOOOOOO much! Alos, there were NO pictures of abby. SEND THEM!!

Love you forever,
