1Nephi 3:7

"So I chatted with my friends, and have no time to email but this is the gist of the last week.
I went on the greatest exchange, and pretty much told everyone that I met that Heavenly Father loves them. I love telling people that. 

I went to the temple again. But sadly there was a family emergency with a companion so she had to leave a couple days early. I cried! We were together for 4 and half months. She wrote me a poem about all the things she loves about me. She's the nicest! 

A member drew a cartoon of me as a missionary. It's so cute! 

I had to be companions with a member for about 6 hours. We drove all over Vegas because my companion needed a ride and then forgot things and then because I had nothing I really had to get done. We ate spaghetti and played ping pong. I promise I work as a missionary. 

My new companion is 19 from Mexico and hates speaking Spanish. We are going to have a blast together. I am suppose to help her learn to be more confident. I told the Pres, well if she was born a Steed women she would be fine. Just kidding, but who would have thought that me my vanity would be a help in my mission. So that's a treat. 

I woke up at 3:25 a.m. to go hiking. I have a policy that I don't hike without my Dad because then he just holds my hand and pulls me up the whole mountain, but instead I just took it slow and steady, and made religious jokes out of my dying lungs. Laughter helps everything! We then had a dance party to some wholesome music on the top of the mountain. 

I am really excited for this next transfer. It'll be great to change things up and help the area. I love my area so much.  New companion, new transfer, new year. Yeah buddy....yeah Sister?

Heavenly Father answers prayers, the church is true, families are forever, and I love you all."
