Why My Life is Amazing!

So the day after Thanksgiving I got to head back to Washington D.C., one of the loves of my life! It was amazing to be back and see people I haven't seen for a few months and to see my aunt and kids. What happened is Kim Lowe who I taught on my mission and her husband recently moved to Pennsylvania from Minnesota. Kim's year mark of baptism was Dec. 1st which made her eligible to go to the temple. So, me and Christen one of my mission companions that taught Kim as well went out to be with them during their first time at the temple. It was amazing and then we got to spend some good quality time with them afterwards at Red Lobster. They are great and I love them tons! It also worked out that my aunt needed me to babysit while she went on business so I got my flight paid for. She is such an amazing person and aunt! While Christen was here we also saw some of the sights:) The Washington Monument

I'm so jealous! Sounds like a fun trip. It's fun to hear what's going on in your life. Oh yeah, we hang out with the Petersons. They are awesome. Just so you know it's -18 today. Be glad you are somewhere else.
