Newport News!

Hi everyone! So I just wanted to update you realy quick on what's going on.  I won't be able to email again until Monday the 17th... so you better snail mail it to me if you have anything I need to know :)

I've been officially transferred to Newport News, and my new address is

602 Riverbend Court #106
Newport News, VA 23602

Mom, please put that on my blog and stuff just to let people know.  It will be really difficult going forward to get mail from the Dell street address in Norfolk because nobody will be there. Thanks! :)

So, my companion is going home.  It's really sad because she is a very good missionary. I will miss her.  I will be in a trio for the next couple weeks with Sister Banner and Sister Whittle.  They are amazing and I love them a lot already! This area has a lot of good people to teach, and several of my missionary friends from other areas and the mtc are here too, so that makes it fun.

On of my friends from my MTC district (who is out here and in the Newport News district/zone) called and asked for me the other night because he heard "his best friend" was staying in Newport News! So that made me feel like a million bucks. I've been so blessed to make such good friends on the mission, both in member and missionaries.

Things have been a little hectic, but they are slowing down and normalizing a little bit I think. Thank goodness for that. Being in Newport News has been great because I'm able to teach lots of people and I love it!!

The Christmas Mission Conferences are next week.  We have to have 2 because the mission is so big. I am singing on the 11th and the 13th for both of them.  It was nice to get special permisison to go to both! :) I'm looking forward to it.

Well, that's about it for me.  Make sure you note the new address and I hope that doesn't mess anything up! We also have transfers again on the 20th... who knows where I'll go from there. I'm just an orphan missionary. I'm sure we'll set up all the details for skyping and stuff on the 17th when I'm on again. Hope everything is going well! Love you!
