HAPPY NEW YEARS! 2015! BRING ON THE NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS!

WOW! it is a new year! 2015! it may take me till the end of this year to write 2015 on the dates but its great! im excited.

      so some of the resolutions i made is to write in my journal all year and not put it off and say "ill do it later" then forget. also im trying to keep the one plate rule with eating. i have been strict on it now that the holidays are over and all the treats are gone. i have had to many treats. i have really appreciated receiving them and having a study snack. im grateful for the holiday gifts i received. i have had a great start out to the year. yesterday we got to go on our every transfer temple trip. it was great and i had a wonderful time doing temple work especially for the names i have from our family tree my sister sent me.

      it has been great as we start the new year out. we also have a cool event coming up that im excited for. President Henry B. Eyring is coming out to visit our whole mission on the 10th of this month and to address us about many things of what he feels can help us more hasten the work. his brother is the director of the Washington D.C Visitor Center so that is cool! we also have a temple trip for specifically family temple names on march 11th 2015. so i need to find names to do baptisms. so if anybody in my family or anybody have names they need done i am willing to do some of those for you if you mail me out the cards. im still learning on how to use Familysearch.org. so yeah let me know otherwise i will try my best to find names to do.

       i have realized this year i will serve the whole year on my mission even though i was a month off of last year but its cool i have a month till i will hit my year mark of my mission and i will be on the down fall of going home on a count down to going home. wow i cant believe i have been out a year it feels like it has only been a shorter amount of time then that. but i have enjoyed every moment of it and it has gone by fast and i keep my head up the best i can. sometimes there are ups and downs but for the most part there is more ups. so many miracles. but anyway it will be a great year as a missionary and a disciple of Jesus Christ!

here as some cool pics i last had!
