Here are some highlights...

Hello Hello ALL!!!


I feel like it has been FOREVER since I have emailed! What a week.

Here are some highlights...

*monday we had lunch with the caldwells. i love them. they are our adopted grandparents here in adams. *tuesday was district meeting then a walmart visit. [i complained about only having a walmart in thatcher... here we only have a kmart, and that's 30 miles away. so now i LOVE walmart. target seems like a selfish dream! OH HOW THINGS CHANGE!!!!] Brother Marty Klish made us dinner... yum. *wednesday we taught debbie. we went to lunch bunch with the ward Relief Society. We taught Jody, sister barton came with us. They were both really good appointments. Debbie is struggling with the word of wisdom, she can't stop drinking. Jody KNOWS it's true. she wants to be baptized. she's just got to give up coffee. so simple. Sister Barton has been baptized less than a year and was such a big help with that lesson. Her and Jody are alot alike. they both have TONS of questions. I lOVE answering their questions, usually I have to study it and i love that. We found out WED that we were MOVING! *Thursday we did weekly planning, then had dinner at the Jacksons in Necedah. Bro Jackson always makes us the best food. That night we went and checked out our new crib in Mauston and the home of the BARRETTS! I am excited to live with them. *Friday we went and painted our new room. we have a lot more space at the barretts. Our door will actually open and close all the way. AmAzing. and we have our own FULL bathroom upstairs. We packed the rest of the day. [i loathe packing.] and then went to sports night... we played wiffle ball. *saturday we packed PACKED and did more PACKING!!!!!!! then we went to the posielenzny's and made them dinner. WE had a great time. i love that family. i can't wait for them to meet with the bishop and set a goal to get to the temple to be sealed! YEAH! *sunday we had church, then visited some people with brother moore then went to the barretts for their daughter, Cassidy's graduation party. It was fun.

other good news: VANESSA WAS BAPTIZED IN GREEN BAY ON SATURDAY!!!!!!!!! I taught vanessa from the very beginning. I am so proud of her and her decision to be baptized. That little girl has a TON of faith. She's the best!

So we are moving. [i hate packing.] I feel like I have been on the move since i left green bay three weeks ago! We are moving to Mauston. We will live at 21 Morris Street in an old brick house on the water with our own little dock. There is old wood floors, old doors and original hardware. It's beautiful. I love the molding too. I love the barretts and I just know this is just the change this area needed.

Thanks Brother and Sister Foster for being so great to US missionaries! They are AmAzing and so willing to do anything for missionary work.

MOM: thanks for the cute gap skirt I got in the mail a few days ago. I love it. blue stripes, so what a girl that lives on the water needs in her wardrobe!!! haha

I have to go! It's moving day! Brother Caldwell will be at the fosters with his big 4 door quad cab yellow diesel "amarillo" truck in a few minutes to haul our BIG LOAD of stuff to the barretts!

I love you all! WRITE ME!
