So grateful for this opportunity!

yeah crazy stuff i hoped you would remember that i wouldnt be able to email til today and not be upset with me cuz i didnt send one yesterday haha. sounds like you all had a blast at the faiy, for the most part. its crazy to think that next years fair i will be home for... anyway i never brought this up earlier but you all forgot to tell me you got rid of alot of the animals. you gotta get more animals cuz i want some when i get home. sounds weird but i miss the smell of horse manure and havin stuff like that to take care of. i know i wont be home terrible long before i leave to school but i really do miss that stuff. Dad isnt bein weird wanting to go to the fair, he just wants to spend time with the people he loves :) wow 45th aniversery for Grandma and Grandpa? that is sooooooo awesome, what an example we have. they are 2 amazing people! the cabin trip sounds like it was CRAZY. i am soooooo excited for lupe! idk if i will be able to make it because we arent allowed to go to that kind of thing unless its our temple day or we taught them before they were baptized. speaking of the temple i got out of a session about 40 minutes ago. it was soooooooo amazing i learned so much today and the spirit was especially strong. its cool cuz in my patriarchal blessing it talks about how my body will feel rejuvinated in the temple and 2 nights ago my back was hurting more than it has in a looooooooong time. i got a blessing and i was able to sleep and do what i needed yesterday but it still wasnt real great but as soon as we went into the temple i felt great, normally i wouldnt share stuff like that out of my blessing but its something that grew my testimony of patriarchal blessings, a ton. also priesthood blessings cuz i was in a lot of pain but after the blessing i was able to fall asleep in a few minute with alot less pain. i will write Marsh and Dana a letter unless you can get me their email and i will email them about the guitar. ha i have no clue what you should tell the ward over the pulpit next week. like idk, im doing super well for the most part, we dont have much goin on in this area but we are slowly finding people we have a couple investigators and hopefully we will have a baptism this month, if not this month the beggining of next. i really dunno im not a good speaker and definately wouldnt know what to say about myself ha. i do get aunt sues letter and i feel terrible cause i havnt written back until last week... im terrible at writing oh man i didnt write letters yesterday either to anyone in the family so tell them sorry. elder klien will go to utah state no worries i'll talk him into it. its coolin off here too! it feels so nice! its like 107ish now nice and cool. sounds like your all gonna have a blast during harvest ha. This week has been slow, we are lookin really hard. the thing that i have learned about a companionship is you do alot better when you serve each other. life goes alot smoother. my supllies are doin good: socks are smelly :) pants are good shirts are doin really well and shoes just stink up the room but hold up really good haha i spray them ocaisonally with stuff that smells better lol. i was going to ask about your temple trips and what not, im soooo happy you are doin that! the temple is such an amazing place and helps us remember our blessings! im glad dad went ha im gonna challenge him to go every week too. this sounds weird but i have changed but dont really notice it, i know its there i guess but i couldnt tell you all the changes that have happened. all i know is that this is preparing me alot to be the person that i need to be for the rest of my life.i am so grateful for this oppurtunity that i have to be here and i wouldnt trade it for anything in the world. i love you all sooooo much and hope that you have a wonderful day!

love taylor
