Happy Birthday Sister Strachan! I love you and your husband, you both are awesome!

Elle! Happy Birthday! I hope that you are having a great week!

So it has been a crazy week! I have loved it but it has been really hard as well.

We had a zone conference and it was wonderful we had a great discussion that was led by Sister Rehm, she talked about the different motivators that we as people have the physical and spiritual. We were able to talk about different ways to help each other out all in all it was a great meeting!

However President Rehm told us that we had a special meeting with him Saturday and that was all he said, so needless to say we all started to panic a bit. Then a lot.

Finally on Saturday we all gather together at the stake center and president Rehm tells us that the mission boundaries are being changed!! The entire Parker South Stake is going to be handed over to the Denver mission starting this Wednesday, so we have been packing up everything the past few days and getting ready for the great exodus of the Parker south stake. It has been really hard to say bye to everyone but I know it is the will of God so I will do what he wants me to do.

I am being transferred back down to the San Luis Valley, I am going to a little town named Sanford! I am looking forward to it, I think it will be a great experience!

I have been thinking a lot this week about different choices that we make and what they will lead to and how we can change. First every day we make at least one very important choice, we can either do something or not. the choice is up to you every day, that choice will lead you to one grow or two drift if you grow you will be able to control that growth if you drift you will not be in control you give that up.

second how we can change, first we have to have so idea of who we already are, then we have to make a goal of who we want to become, then every day we have to make a choice to change and not look back. It is not a fast process but it is one that everyone has to go through to make steps forward.

I love you all and hope that things are going well!
