Sunday...

i am in love with my new ward. all the ladies are so incredibly friendly. and none of them have a problem introducing themselves to me. i am sorta shy in that department. i have met a new lady each sunday i have gone. they are all so very sweet.

this sunday was wonderful. it was a lovely lesson on family responsibilities. given by a wonderful teacher. the lady that sat next to me that day, i was so excited about, because she has given my favorite lesson so far. i spoke about it in this post. her name is Virginia. she is beautiful and so very sweet. we chit chatted for a little while. she asked me to come to the temple (monday) to help pack away things that are inside the temple because the temple is now closed for up to a year plus for remodeling. i was instantly hooked on going. she said they would be putting away the crystals from the chandeliers. that sounded so neat. i wanted to go for sure.

ryan left that night for burley to go to work until tuesday. so i thought it would give me something to do while he is away. i suddenly thought of holly and how i wanted her to come with me to share the experience. there are a few more people i would have loved to take with me, but there wasn't really an option to take all of them (because of work schedules and living far far away). i was so pleased when holly said she was able to come. and she suggested we go shopping after! i wanted a new dress for our niece's wedding.

Monday...
holly came and picked me up after i was done with work. when we got there it was a little crazy. there were so many people helping and it almost looked done. after looking and walking around the temple we finally found virginia and she lead us to one of the chandeliers that they were working on taking down. we got to wrap them up. it was awesome. it took a pretty long time and i think my back hurts from bending the way i was, but it was so worth it. it was really and amazing experience.

so then we went shopping. holly found some way cute shirts for her mom. and holly told me that diane got her hair cut too. i totally wanted to see it, because it sounded adorable. when she went home she took a picture of her in one of her new outfits and sent it to me on my phone....

looking beautiful diane :) 

ryan texted me and told me he was done early and was heading back that day. YAY! I was so excited he was coming home a day early.

thanks for coming holly. it was great.
we will see you guys at the wedding tonight!!!
