Four months already?‏

Time flies by but what's new? 
There are walls of snow lining every corner now. We had some huge storms this week and they are slowing down the work just a bit. We drive in anything unless President Anderson grounds our cars. Our car is a beast in the snow, so we don't have as many problems as most people.
 
 We only had Sacrament this Sunday because there were so many people that couldn't leave their houses! They were snowed in. So a bunch of the members and us got shovels and snow blowers to helped as many as we could out. Of course we couldn't go home and change so we got to shovel in our Sunday best. Haha. It was so much fun. There is no better feeling than being in the service of someone else. One lady had a driveway that was 1/5 a mile long! They usually did it by shovel but there had been so much snow that it was a lot harder. She was so relieved when 6 people showed up and started helping her. I love this ward!
 
There is a part member family who we have been dropping by a bunch lately but never seemed to catch them home. Finally one night we stopped by again even though they are never there. They were home! We got in to see them and little 11-year-old Sierra, who isn't baptized. Her parents are on board for us to teach her. We will extend a baptismal date next lesson but we are so excited. She is quite the little fireball!
 
NO random thoughts! We didn't really have time to eat our lunch yesterday and so last night we had a lot of extra food. We made it out to the very boarder of our area to visit some people that were snowed in. I had the feeling I should grab our lunch and although it felt kind of weird carrying my lunch around I've learned to just follow the spirit. The first family we visited didn't need anything and kind of gave us a weird look but at the less active's home we visited right after that, their car had been stuck and they couldn't go shopping for anything. They were very grateful for some food. Follow the Spirit, he knows stuff you don't. 
 
Thanks for all the love and support! Shout out to the Mt. Scott young women! Thank you for all the love and valentines candy. YUM! Also shout out to the primary for the cute notes and letter :) Hicks family, you are awesome and those hand warmers are being put to good use. Dave Caudle, your letters are the BEST! Haha. The pictures are awesome too. 
 
I am so grateful for wonderful people back home who are always there for me. 
 
Dash your fear and be faithful,
