Dear Family,

I know!! I can't believe it has already been four months. crazy. This week has been good and it has been warming up a lot. The main thing that we did this week was go to the temple. We were able to arrange a mini bus and go just for the day! It was a long day but it was so worth it just to take people to the temple. There were a few of the people that we are teaching that went as well. It was such a spiritual and happy day and everyone felt the spirit and enjoyed themselves. We just had a tour of the visiting center and watched The Restoration and then we walked around the grounds. It was such a pretty day as well. It wasn't raining and the sun was shining! It was just perfect.

Robin is going to be baptized this weekend. He is a way cool guy and the ward and everyone just love him already. I will send pictures and stuff next week. He received his answer at the temple which was a really cool experience for him and for Sister Binnie and I. We are just so excited for him and for this wonderful decision that he is making.

Yesterday morning in my study I studied faith. There are so many wonderful scriptures about faith. The one thing that I learned yesterday was that we all go thru trials and it is just to shape us and perfect us. The Lord knows our potential and so we go thru things to make us the person we should be. We just have to remember to have faith and put the Lord first and he will help us through everything. He doesn't give us anything that we cannot handle. One important part of faith is in order for us to receive the blessings we have to put the first step forward. We have to do something and fully trust in Jesus Christ and in Heavenly Father and then we will see the miracles and receive all that we need to make it thru. I love you all! I love my savior and I love the gospel.

loveeeee you all so much and miss you like crazy

love syd
