HEY!

So that's rubbish that the temple will be closed! :( i was so excited to go with you guys. my new area is a really posh area! it's the nicest area that i have ever served in. my companion is from utah and her name is sister morgan. we get along great and are having a fun time figuring out our new area. we live right on the high street.. and that means we live where all of the shops are so everything is so close which is really nice. our flat is nice but the windows don't open so that is really weird and it's probably going to get really hot and i need my fresh air. but other than that i like it. The ward is really good. i am pretty sure that we will be spoiled here because they haven't had sisters for a really long time and so they are all so excited. Also i am in a ward with other missionaries. there are four of us in the portsmouth ward right now and by the end of the week there will be 6 missionaries all together in my ward. so i am way excited for that. :) we have already had dinner a couple of times at some of the members homes and they are so great. i love it. also the buses aren't the best here so we have to walk basically everywhere but i actually really like it because it's refreshing and also we get to see the area! there are a lot of historical things in portsmouth that we want to go see but the thing i want to see the most is £20 so i don't know if i will be able to do that! we will see. but we have a lot of work to do in waterlooville. cause missionaries haven't ever really spent a lot of time in that area so it should be good. i am so excited to be able to open a new area. it's really exciting! they are opening a lot of new areas and there are a lot of missionaries coming in!

 i loved the pictures of baxton he is so cute! also that is so sad about the horse :( the weather here has actually been really nice for the past week! the sun has shone since i got to the new area it has been great.

oh yeah at the beginning of the week i got to go to the temple grounds and we got to take a lady named tracey! it was so nice! just being on the grounds is amazing! we got to learn a lot of fun little facts about the temple and everything. i love the spirit of the temple grounds!

love you all so much!!

I think this is her new companion????
