The Beginning of the end.

Well today leaving Utah started to become real to me. Leah left to go home for Christmas. I am starting to be sad about it all. I love it here. My ward rocks! I have really amazing friends here. I am starting to get well. Man life likes to throw things at you when you like where you are at. I am going back to Rexburg. It isn't that I don't love it there. I do but I feel at home here. I hope that I can get through school fast and move down here.

Temple Square Rocks!

As most of you know I have been working at Temple Square this fall. Well I just wanted everyone to know that it is my favorite job ever. It has been so wonderful for me to work there. I love my crew very much! Larry is the funniest old man I know. He always has a wonderful story to tell and the spirit and he are best friends. Joni is wonderful as well. She is fun to be around. It was way nice to have another lady on the crew. Dugan isn't my favorite but he could be nice at times. Tyrell was fun to work with. At first he was way quiet but as time went on he opened up more and more. Come to find out he was way funny. We also called him ox because he was way strong. I guess farm work will do that to you. Parker was good to work with as well. He was nice and worked hard. He is now on his mission. I believe he will be a very good missionary. James was my favorite to work with. We always had great conversation. He became an older brother to me. Working here has taught me a lot about gardening as well as reminding me how much the Lord works with his servants. There were many days that there was way more work than we had hands and at the end of the day it was done. I will miss working here. I hope to have the chance once again.

These pictures are from the Aspen harvest. It was way fun!
This is Larry.

This is James. He got to cut down all the trees. I got to carry most of them.






This was up at the fur harvest. We went up by bear lake. It was way fun as well!



This is planting season! Now that was a crazy time. The people planting was a ward that signed up to come help us plant on a Saturday morning. If they don't come there is no wat we would get it all done.
