How Great Shall Be My Joy!

How Great Shall Be My Joy!
Sara at the Provo Temple

Sister Sara in Salt Lake City

Sara entered the MTC on Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Her wonderful friends, Kelsey and Katie, took her to the MTC and "dropped her off at the curb" after their goodbyes. Thanks for helping my girl out.



Soon, two young elders came out to take Sara's luggage and Sara walked into the MTC with "calm and confidence" as Katie put it. Kelsey took some great pictures and promptly sent them to us. Katie gave me a call and said all was well.



So, for the next 18 months, we will follow Sara and her "LIFE BEHIND THE TAG."

It’s been snowing a good amount here. But it’s fluffy so we can just blow it off of our car or just open the car door and shut it and it all falls off. So it’s nice. Can't complain.

Things are going great! We have baptisms the next 2 weekends! Rylee Young (10) and Grandpa Long (83)

Grandpa Long is so wonderful! We go to his house a lot. The ward is way supportive which is so nice. Grandpa Long came to church for the first time in his ward yesterday!!! His grandson Courtney came too. B/c we cover 19 wards we were not able to stay for all 3 hours, just sacrament meeting. But it was like he was my child and I was dropping him off to primary for the first time. I had to make sure people said hi to him, I had to check and see if there was someone sitting next to him in Sunday school. Then I had to stand in the hallway for a min or two looking through the cracked open door to make sure he was okay. Then I had to go talk to the bishop and someone in the ward and tell them that we were leaving and that Grandpa long was in their hands. Mom, I now have a slight knowing of what you go through when dropping your kids off to something for the first time. We gave him the temple issue of the ensign and he read it the whole thing in one afternoon! He can’t wait to go to the temple and be sealed with his wife, who passed away in slept, in the temple!

Things are going good here. I stopped by the Lloyds’ the other day to invite sis Lloyd to a book of Mormon class. It is always great to see them!

Oh I forgot to tell you! I had strep throat, first time ever. It was not bad and I got meds for it last week so I only need the meds for 3 more days!

Zone Conference is this Wednesday! I am super excited!

Thanks for all you do! Love y'all! Love, Sister Anderson

Oh so there is a WML here that knows the Knights! I told her I was from RVA and she asked me if I knew them so I told her how Neal would let Abby and I ride his horse. Small World. If you ever talk to the Knights the last name of the WML is Thompson. And sis Thompson is from SC but has not lived there in a long time.
