Lacey:
I love you! i missed you this week, a little more than last week.which is a little more than the week before that...and so on :)  I want to tell you something... you know how your mean companion told you that it was against the rules to email me back and forth? Well when you first told me we couldn't I was kind of upset..because i thought that was a pretty dumb rule. haha but then i made myself think of the positives of it, and it was actually a very good thing for me that we couldn't do that anymore. Cause when we could before, I would always get so upset because my phone would freeze up and not send the messages fast enough, or just little things that would make me so frustrated...and every monday was so stressful because i wanted to talk to you so bad that i would get anxiety about whether my phone would send the messages fast enough. haha sounds stupid i know. But after we couldn't do that anymore i never got so anxious and i was just happy to get an email from you! so... it was a good thing. I am happy that we can do it again, i don't get anxiety anymore because now i'm just happy with what i get haha :) and you spoil me, I am lucky :)

um... i did the most stupid thing ever this week. honest i think it is the dumbest thing i have ever done. I had my micro lab final... and we get to use our lab notebooks... so i did the whole test and i was one of the last ones in there so i was kind of in a hurry to get out, so when i was cleaning up i just put my test in my notebook and left!! i didn't even think about turning it in!! goodness gracious... then i went to get my laptop out of my backpack later that night and i saw that my test was in my backpack and i about freaked out. i said probably 20 prayers throughout the next 15 hours. I emailed my professor and told him that i forgot to turn my test in and i had to go talk to him the next day...geez. i have never felt like such an idiot. he had to check for erase marks and then i had to do a problem on the board..but he gave me full points for it so i was extremely relieved. haha and then! when i went home for the weekend me and whitney had to go to walmart and i locked the keys in the car! .....my brain is shutting down i think. ha

Anyways... how was your week?? has your comp left yet? how are you doing? I know you are probably stressed... don't be! it'll all be okay! everything will work out! if you don't know what in the heck you are doing...just pretend like you do :) but you are smart, you can figure out just about any situation :) i have faith in you my dear! i am making us something... with my very own hands...for our home... yeah, it is going to take a while haha...i will send you a picture when i am done!! but i am pretty excited for it.

"Always remember we are under the same sky looking at the same moon." -Maxine Lee. This waiting thing keeps getting harder...and i keep thinking it's not possible to get any harder...but we are always under the same sky klay. look at the moon, we have the same moon :) and on mondays we are only a couple screens away ;) can i ask you something? yeah? yeah ok. are you nervous to see me again? Like i'm nervous...actually more anxious than nervous..but yeah. I just think about it a lot haha everyone says that it's like you never left when you come back, but i think we've both changed...quite a bit...idk i just want it to be the same as when you left...or...better :) I'm not nervous that you won't want me or that i won't want you...i just can't really imagine what it's going to be like haha are we going to cry? laugh? i will probably be squealing... haha i do that when i get extremely excited. Are you going to make out with me right then and there? hahahah kidding!! kinda ;) haha i'm funny...

I love you!!! have a fantastic week! i don't know if i will get to hear from you tomorrow...hopefully! but if you are busy with companion change stuff...i understand. love love love love love love you!!!!

love lou

Lacey:
Holy smokes I love you!!! :) Did you have a great week? i hope so :) I hope no one lied to you this week...cause that's not nice. This week was good, on friday it was so warm!! it felt like september and it is the end of november!  crazy! Also...happy anniversary :) I love you even more every 24th :) this marks 2 years and 8 months!! crazy huh! that's 32 24th's :) haha i hope that you love the recordings that i sent you :) this week is thanksgiving so i will have some of the familia talk in the one for next week :) i am sending your christmas present this week!! it is going to be in 2 seperate envelopes... haha :) I am going to buy other stuff but you will have to wait a few months to get them :) i just can't wait to spoil you when you are here! Thank you for writing me all of your hopes and fears, I am anxious to read them :) I will write you mine in your letter for this week :) I just want you to always tell me everything...I feel like I'm pretty forgiving...and I love you more than my mind can imagine, so really, anything! I am your help meet, I need to know things to be able to do the "help" part :) Is your companion coming home this week? or next week?

I need help. So my roommate megan has this boyfriend...and they dated for like 2 WEEKS and they think they are going to get married. hey, maybe they will...idk haha but anyways her room is right next to mine and I can hear them making out all the time!  I have to put my headphones in and turn my music up. haha tiff told me to tell you that so that you can tell me how to have patience with them. haha me and tiff went to salt lake on saturday and one of her friends and his friend gave us this tour of the U. they thought it was the coolest thing that has ever existed. haha they kept saying "i bet weber doesn't have that..." and we would say, "um..yeah it does actually" haha and we were being so funny! we were like dancing and making jokes and they just really didn't think it was very funny..they wanted to give us a tour of the library, and we weren't even in the library yet and they shushed us! geez people... so then tiff lied and said that i was the relief society president and that we needed to get home. ha we need to find a man for tiff and then go on dates with them a lot :) OH! haha tiff had a dream about us...she said that you came home and we were at a carnival and you said, "i don't want to be with you lacey, i just want to have my fun" and you went crazy dancing around and yelling "i'm free!"  so i was so sad and she was chasing you around trying to convince you to stay with me hahaha oh goodness, don't go crazy on me when you get back klay ;)

Guess what...it's no shave november!! haha my legs are soo hairy. attractive huh? ;) I would be fine doing no shave november for the rest of my life. :)

Quote! "Wherever you are, be all there." I know it's probably hard to focus when you are so close to the end, but give it all you got!! There are still a lot of people that need your help :) I say I want you home a lot, but you are there, so be all there! then when you are here you can be all here :) I am so thankful for you, I love you! you are my sunshine! :)

love lou :)

Mika, jaqulyn, if we adopt twin mexican girls  bianca and maya :) hehe. micaela and call her mickey! hehe plus she is my most active person i helped in the mission! i still like galilea but i know you dont like it too much hehe. liviana and call her livi, levi, leif (one of my ancestors) haha i kinda like it. its like leaf. conrad, tucker, oliver, sebastian call him sebby, Kalaya call her Kali, abigail i like a whole lot. madison, i like milo as like a middle name in tribute to my father hehe. jesse, hadley, piper, isabelle or el whatever you desire, and fin. . . hehe. these are a few i like, but i know that the names i like are strange and you dont like strange names, but i will let you choose all the names if you desire, just as long as they are ours. . .im a happy camper :) i hope that you can look up and download some good movies or videos for family home evenings. i want to, while we are dating and early on in our marriage without kids, to practice and create many plans to lift the little ones up right. that it the plan. can you look for good talks and videos and stuff? i lub you :) just keep swimming. i know that it is a temptation your surroundings, but dont fall for the slippery slopes of sin :) just wait for me and i will make all your wildest dreams come true :) hehe. vote for klay :) i will tell you one of my funny revelations today :) i want to do it with our ward or stake but i think that it will be fun as a family as well, its called fat and happy dress up and down doughnuts donation drive :) hehe. i was thinking in a way to help the poor and attract all the members to participate. i would like to buy a ton of doughnuts as a family for our kids and then you know how we always end up with a ton of decent clothes that we never wear? i want to do this activity that we put on as many layers as it be possible to us of clothings and then as we are thus "fat" we eat dougnuts together as a family, ward or stake and then after we take off all the extra clothes and then donate it to the church charity fund. whachu think? i think that it would get popular. we could do it like once a year? i will keep writing you in a minute little princess i love you!

November 17, 2014

Lacey:
OH MY GOSH! GUESS WHAT! i love you :) hehehe your emails make me giddy :) i read them each at least 3 times during the week ha to answer your question, I love everything that you do, letters give me butterflies, emails and voice recordings give me a reason to start off the week well, (don't forget the ones where you sing :)) poems calm me and drawings and little treasures make me smile :) I love to hear about what you are doing in Argentina and about the people that are progressing and the funny stories that you have :) I want you to tell me all of your worries and hopes, what you are struggling with and what you are happy about. You can tell me anything, I want to hear it all :)

This week was good, I got 72 on my chemistry test! usually that would be awful...but i was extremely relieved to get 72 haha me and tiff went to see a movie last night called "interstellar" it was awesome! It will be put on the list of movies we need to watch when you get home :) But really we should try not to go to the movies other than the dollar theater....because it is so expensive! Remember our plan? We'll just buy a bunch of movies and have our own theater in our house! haha :) we are awesome. I was sick this week...no fun. but it gave me a reason to sleep a lot so that was nice :) haha hopefully I will get better in the next couple days! your mom "texed" me haha :) what a cute woman, it made me smile. Other than that nothing too exciting happened this week.

As for our wedding day... April 8th would be wonderful haha :) But! we need to take engagements and send out invitations, that takes at least a couple weeks so I don't think the 8th will work, ha trust me I want to be sealed to you as fast as possible! but it will be fun to date for a little bit before too don't ya think? :) I'm thinking June 13th or July 11th.. what do you think?

I'm sorry to tell you...but we won't be able to get scholarships for being married until the 2016-2017 school year ha because everything is due in like March...and we won't have a marriage license in march... boo. And as for the twins plan...nah. haha i would actually secretly love to have twins, i think they would be fun, however extremely painful, But! no fun while we are both in school haha But I will look for scholarships for you! Where are you going to school? haha are you coming to Weber? or USU? 

I like the name Hadley for a girl :) or Haden :) or Hadley and Haden (twins) :) haha I don't even think it's possible for me to have twins! There aren't any twins in my family or yours! ha maybe if you pray super hard ;) I wish we still had that list! I'm pretty sure I wrote the names down somewhere...I just have to find it haha

p.s. "Hey boy you got me on my tip toes, don't stop, kiss me and away we'll go" hehehe

My hugemungo lawn i had to rake....perfect hammocking trees and my house! :)

Klay:
Hey there little one! i am glad that all the things that i do make you happy! thank you so much for sending me a voice recording, i brought the wrong chord so i am going to end my session a little early and come back before going to work to day and send you the voice messages that i made you and also download the one that you sent to me so that i can have a freak out from hearing your voice! i expect one every week from here on out you hear me little one! ;) i miss you and i am going to blow up when i hear you! but just be patient this day. and also, i think that you owe me a lot. . .cuz i have been very valient with sending you voice messages. . .so. . .if you sing me songs and record them, i will send more surprises home with my companion. . . but that is only if you send me two more at least of songs that you sing for me. . .and i need them before like four hours from now.. .:)hehe okay? this week went pretty good, what do you desire that i tell you about my worries and my hopes? i would prefer writing it to you in a letter so that only you can read it. seeming that my hopes and worries arent really worth other people reading because they wont be my help meet and really have no need. if you desire i will write you a letter today all about it. my greatest fears and hopes and worries. i like your hammocking trees! remember if you buy a string you can lace up the top of the hammock with a sleeping bag inside so it holds you almost as tight as i did :) we are trying to baptize the mom of Jose. she is a stud but she has to be married and her man friend is never home to talk to him about it. so . we are trying our best but it isnt working out too hot. but we are going to have to search for a way to get them married. every one is extremely lazy. i cant believe it. we were talking to a boy friend and a girl friend, the girl is a member. her boyfriend said that he wants to be baptized. we went to their house half an hour before church, reminded them and then they said that they were on their way and completely lied to us. sometimes i think this place is destined for the telestial kingdom- - -  haha but, surely God will be merciful from the prayers of the righteous. thank you for working so hard in your yard to make it look nice. your house looks like old grama house hehe. i wanted to tell you but i kept forgetting! congradulations on getting that CNA job with your neighbor! its fun huh! well with the majority of the old folks at least! how is your old person? is it a full time job! 72 percent is worth a dinner date of your choice in a little over four months my dearest darling! ;) i am just fine with whatever date that you choose for the wedding. i but want a say as to how long the kiss is hehe ;) no dus teasin :) did you know that in the temple there is no exchange of rings? interesting huh :) that is done outside of the temple and you cant do any of the vows outside. the only thing that i ask is that you work really hard to be a best you can and follow the answer that God has given you with all diligence. i asked him twice this week. haha. Did you know that God is humorous? various prophets have left the higher rooms of the temples laughing quietly and said "He has a good sense of humor" haha. crazy huh. anyways, when i was having my nightly chat with our Father, i asked him, he said Yes, now work haha. i love Him. then i asked him again cuz i had a hard day and He said once again. Yes Klay, keep working. . . haha. but it was a voice that you could tell He had a smirk behind it. you can ask Him how much i love you. if you listen and talk to Him in out loud He tends to reply at a similiar volume. though it is yet subtle. i love you lou. if only you knew what i have seen that God has in store for us through our faithfulness to the gospel and to each other. i have seen it. its glorious. i dont know where i will go for school. i would prefer stay in the same school as you so that there arent complications. where ever you want to go. i was thinking U of U for their medical program. but i am yet unaware of that decision. i only see the future vision. but i am willing to start out just about anywhere. seeming that we are both going into medicine, i just want a place that we can go together and help each other out. you are so much smarter than me :) well my lou bug, i love you like crazy. i would prefer the earlier of the two dates of your decision :) not because of preference but because of anxiousness :) that will give me just enough time to get everything in order after the mission to be able to take care of you without external stresses. i love you little girl. please stay away from the sharks. kick them. hard. they will go away if you wear my clothes ;) i put shark repellant on them before i left to protect you from potencial death by sea enemies :) if you punch them in the nose. . .that is really sensitive and they tend to back the heck off :) hehe. dus be mine okay? luyaguts little fish of mine :) write me big letters this week about your fears and hopes and dreams and most profound desires and secrets! :) okay? thank you. love ya!

Lacey:
I'm at school! i can't send singing messages within 4 hours! haha next week...promise :)

Klay:
My comp is sending photos of our pension to the offices so i thought i would send you these while i wait :) just so ya know i wrote you a letter of all of my hopes and fears. i tell you everything so please be merciful and understanding with me.  hey i am going to have to send some smaller ones cuz they take forever to download :) i love the voice message :) i'm sorry that you are sick, your voice message is making me bust up about pomskies :) work hard this week lou! and stay away from the things that you should stay away from. elder lippold says that you are so trunky! :) read your scriptures and pray. a lot! one last thing, dont forget to sing me songs this week cuz i need it. . .and um. please when you get the letter, try to understand me cuz i wrote things that i havent told anyone. iluyagutslou!

Lacey:
Klay!!!! How was your week?? I am glad that Jose got baptized! hopefully he stops running away from church... hahaha silly kid :) that picture was super cute though! the one of you guys holding him up! I posted it on instagram and facebook so all the boys will see how in love with you i am and they will back off! :) How is the woman that you have been teaching? Has she decided she wants to be baptized yet? Guess what..... only 5 more months!!! WHAT! it's gettin real. ;) haha i'm pretty excited :) 

My week was alright ha story time.... So our landlord highered this guy that lives in the apartments across the street to fix our deck, and he is kinda creepy... But anyways, so we had our spare key hidden in our shed, because our shed has a pad lock on it so no one could get to the key but us. So our landlord let the guy into the shed and we think he stole the key!! I was going to rake the leaves so I went into the shed to get the rake and the key was gone...so we were all super freaked out and we went home for the weekend cause we thought he was going to break in to our house. The landlords had to change the locks and everything... I'm just glad that we are all safe! and I'm so grateful that I felt so inclined to go into the shed...who knows what would have happened if we didn't notice that the key was missing! It was good to be home too! Me and tiff hung out...in logan haha it was fun! I read those talks that you told me to read! They were awesome! Both what I needed to hear! We should both print off that one about love and read it often, especially when we are married! But I am going to share those talks on the missionary girlfriend page, cause I think they would help a lot of those girls :) quote! "There is no angry way to say bubbles" hahahaha! oh my heck isn't that so funny! me and tiff read it and we were laughing so hard, because you really can't say it angrily! haha i tried! try it :) oh i love you :) I promise to always help you see your potential. Honestly I think you are amazing! I wish you could see yourself through my eyes! and I wish I could see myself through yours. I know that we are like that for a special reason. I have never been able to truly see the ability and potential of someone else like I see in you. Heavenly Father gave us the ability to see each other in just a glimpse of how he sees us so that we could encourage and lift each other along the way. I know you have flaws, you are human, but that makes me all the more excited to be able to help you and grow closer to you as we perfect each other :) I hope that I will be capable of bringing you closer to Christ each day, if not then I'm not fulfilling my duty as "help-meet". And I am SO excited to have you here to help me...I need a lot of help. haha i can improve by myself...it's just a lot funner (more fun...but i like funner) with you! :) thank you for reading dictionaries and everything else that you have been doing to prepare, i am so grateful for those things because they will help our family immensely :) Thanks for giving me the incentive to do good in chemistry...I want that nitrogen tank ;) so you can use your skills to make me ice cream :) I will send you a voice recording i promise!!! I didn't know that I was allowed! haha but I will, I will do one this week and you can see if you are able to open it :) if not...i will record with another device...either way we will get it to work..cause i love you and you deserve it :) I liked your song! it made me happy! your voice calms me :) seriously if you want to sing me to sleep for the rest of my life...that would be very much appreciated. promise? :) and i will sing you the tip toe song, hehe. You told me to go on a mission...in your recording haha so i am putting in my papers...ah! just kidding. :) One week I was going to trick you and say, "I got my mission call! to peru!" but...my mom told me that would be mean. haha so i decided against it. I just wanna marry you gosh dang it! call me selfish ;) I will serve with you when we are a cute little old couple and we will save everyone!! cause we will be awesome and in love! and people will say, "how are you old people still so in love?" and we will say..come to church with us! and we will give them that talk from elder holland and we will bring hundreds of people to christ because of our love for each other. :) sound good? I freaking love you! :) "I love you so much i'm gonna die!" (like girl off of despicable me says it about unicorns "It's so fluffy i'm gonna die!") haha have a good week my sweets! :) Jesus loves you, your mom loves you, i love you :)

Love lou

November 3, 2014

Lacey:

HELLO! one more week :) We made it into November! Do they celebrate dia de los muertos there? or is that just a mexican thing? haha idk...Halloween was pretty dumb like always. haha but oh well whatcha gonna do? this week the guys that i hung out with last year came to visit so that was fun, they only came for one night but it was fun to have friends again haha my friend hailey came to visit too! we went to olive garden and it was delicous! But yeah other than those two nights there was nothing exciting. Today is ty ty's birthday! eight years old! I think he is getting baptized next month though so that will be exciting. Can you believe he is 8!? Soon he will start liking girls other than me! hahaha he is a good kid. um... i am kind of sad because i'm not allowed to send you packages anymore so I don't know what in the world to get you for christmas... Do you have any ideas? :) What would you like me to send you in an envelope? :) pictures? that is all i can think of, but let me know if you want anything else :) I haven't been reading the letters that you take pictures of haha cause i like it to be a surprise when they come in the mail :) So you don't have to take pictures of them, I will be patient :) Did you have the baptism of Jose?? If so tell me how that went :) I'm glad you have a new washing machine!! that is so awesome! :) um...so sometimes (ALL THE TIME) my roommates leave me alone in this gigantic house and i hear sounds and get freaked out. yeah that is happening right now. But I don't dare go out of my room cause there might be a creepy guy in here! most likely there's not...but i'm definitely not going to go check. haha but yeah... this house is kinda creepy. or ogden is creepy...or both :) Anyways...I am not sure how I like the name Bianca... haha sorry Klay ;) remember that list of names that we had that you had in your wallet?! do you still have that list? cause i don't remember all of them and they were good! all i remember is phineas and isabelle... :)

Quote! "Don't nag yourself with thoughts of failure, don't set goals far beyond your capacity to achieve, simply do what you can do in the best way you know how and the Lord will accept your effort." -Gordon b. Hinkley. As long as we are trying our best, the Lord is happy with us. He knows that we will have tough times, because he has already suffered them. But he does expect us to take those hard times and difficult tasks and do the best that we can do! My institute teacher said something interesting the other day, he said that he doesn't believe the statement, "God will never give you anything that you won't be able to handle." His wife has stage 4 cancer...i think i've told you that before, but anyways I think he is right because after he said that, he said, "I hope you all experience something that is too much for you to handle, because then you will have to turn to the Lord, you will have no other choice." Some things are too much for us, and the Lord knows that, but he allows those things to happen so that we will seek his help. He wants us to come to him! Always. I love you Klay, I miss you like nobody's business ;) but seriously, i miss you A. L.O.T. just so you know :) Have a fantastic week! Teach some people about Christ, go team! :)

Love, Lou

p.s. i am glad you think i am cute when i am stressed... ;) 

Klay:

hahhaaha surely the name bianca will sink into your heart just as the way phineas did ;) because i am sure that you still love that name ever so much :) haha i dont know if i have that list anymore little one. . .there was piper :) hehe. i thought that you didnt like isabelle being spelled like that? haha. i thought i remember you saying that. Jose got baptized he is probably the cutest kid in argentina. the punk ran away from church after his confirmation! surely he will be a great and steadfast member. . . :) i wrote a song :) hehe. it isnt perfect but i hope that you like it. for christmas and all, i just want you to send me a ton ton ton of pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!! hundreds!!!!!!! hehe. okay? thanks you. . .also a poem please and i want you to look for stuff for our life. . . stuff that you wont actually send to me but that will be waiting for us when i get home okay? thanks you :) remember that that money in the account if you feel it should be used in something of great use and need, just talk to my mom and she will let you. i trust you with it all lou bugs. i have a few talks that i want to send to you :) they are fantastic. i think that you will like them a whole lot. elder holland explains it real well :) i sure do love you my little girl. i desire the best for you and of you and i hope that you desire the best of me. if not i will fall. i need you to always expect more okay? always expect me to be more Christlike. Certainly when i fall please dont get upset with me cuz i will probably fall, but help me to always know of my potential and i will help you and lift you up as well. you are my better half lou. i am still to grow to your stature. if a man can see howgreat a person can become as i can see with you, he understands that there is a constant progression. the prophets suggest marrying someone that is better than you but that thinks that they arent. . .perfect combination!!! haha. i know ever clearly how much better you are. you are my hero! you lift me up! keep working hard for us. over everything prepare yourself to be a perservering mother and an everlasting helpmeet. that it my favorite christmas present. i want you to visit our family, embrace them and tell them how much we love them speaking for the two of us. especially our mothers. i loveyou lou. keep working hard in school and dont let the world run you down. stay away from that which degrades you. be careful with rap. if its rap that doesnt break you down go for it, but make sure that you are gaining those virtues of a mother :) delete the music that is across the line or flirting with it. i love you. work hard to be faithful to all the teachings of the gospel. be an example of the believers and suffer with joy your afflictions. you are my hero. i love you muchly. 

look up these talks and listen to them. cast not away therefore your confidence by elder holland and and also the talk How do i love thee by elder holland. i feel that his words will be of great impact in your heart to wait to be sealed to your best friend that is waiting patiently in argentina to seal you to him! :) love you little fishy! just keep swimming! we shall prove your aunt wrong! hehe. be stubborn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! study hard. learn much. read scriptures daily or i will find you and torture you with turbulent tickles! thank you sweets! haha when i was little, my mom would always call me sweets. one day i came upstairs she was cooking cookies and she said how are ya sweets? i said Good! and speakin of sweets! haha and ate the cookies. did i mention that was in my super chubby years. . . :) hehe. love you lou. i want to create a lifetime of memories with you! ps. you can make whatever nickname you want for me :)

Lacey:

October 27, 2014

Lacey:
Guess what..we made it another week! whew...lately that is how I have been taking this journey of ours... one week at a time. How was your first week as zone leader? I am so proud of you! Last Sunday I was talking to my mom and she said, "I bet he is zone leader soon..." haha and I agreed. We are psychic ;) But seriously I am happy that the Lord trusts you with such important callings. I am not sure exactly what a zone leader does, but I know it is kind of a big deal :) I was glad to hear that you weren't stressed last week, try to keep that with you! Stress makes tasks unpleasant. Oh and tell people not to throw letters away gosh dang it! haha I have been writing kind of a lot of them lately... they calm me down. I just like to talk to you i guess :) This week was anti clamatic...nothing crazy happened. I learned how to make pulled pork and it was delicious ha I will try to figure out how to make pretzels for you...there has to be something on pinterest ;) pinterest has everything. Halloween is this week! I really don't like halloween. haha So I will probably stay home and hand out candy to trick or treaters, i hope we get some trick or treaters or it will be pretty boring. Taylor Larsen is home now... he has been posting on instagram, so that's how i found out. Your mom also said that Taylor Redd is home too! crazyyyy. And you will get to kill your companion! ha will you get to take him to the airport or something? Maybe you should just hop on the plane with him...ahhhh! JOKE. haha don't do that, you don't have too long to go, you can make it :) Where is your companion from? i got a calling this week, I am on the relief society activities committee. yayy. ha idk hopefully it will be good, it sounds pretty chill. um...something funny that I did this week...emailed wedding photographers! haha When I tell you that I am planning our wedding I'm not jokin ;) I think I found a good one. They are so expensive! But this one, her name is Heather...she is one of the cheaper ones, but she takes good pictures so it's a win win :) The only problem is I have to tell her a date...so like I need to call the temple and see what dates are available. haha ahhhh idk what i am doing! What day do you want to get married Klay?

Anyways... quote! "The purpose of life is not to just be happy. The purpose of life, my love, is to feel. You must understand that your pain is essential." -Christopher Poindexter. Being happy is good. But pain is essential, without pain, we know no joy. This has been important for me to understand lately... because sometimes we are going to have times in our life when we are not happy. And that doesn't mean that we are failing in life, it just means that we are learning what it feels like to feel real pain so that we can feel and appreciate real joy. That pain is there so that we can learn how to use the atonement, and it is there so that we can help others in our same situation.

I hope you have a fantastic week! :) If you start to get stressed, just breathe :) Just sit down for 5 minutes and don't think about anything, then get up and work :) I am sure you are doing a great job :) You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey, you'll never know dear how much i love you, please don't take my sunshine away :) Happy Anniversary Klay Klay, I do love ya :)

Love Lou

I tried to have some deep belly laughter but ....i didn't really have anything to laugh that hard about so...i need a new solution haha listening to Billy joel helped ;) haha you make me laugh. Did you get transferred this week? I am guessing so because you have been in that area for quite some time...but who knows! 

This week I got 4 letters from you! ha I have been getting a downpour of letters the past few weeks, I love it :) My roommate megan walked in with one the other day and i said, "AHHHH! you just made my day!" haha then she was watching me reading it and she said, "oh my gosh you are so happy! That is so cute!"  haha so yeah...your letters make me happy :) The other 3 were at my house in benson. One was the 18 month letter! except i can't open it... ah! Just kidding! I opened it :) And it gave me an extreme sense of peace and happiness, thank you :) And I am glad that I was able to open it, have you gotten my letter about my answer yet? Your letters get here quick, and I love it! But i wish mine got to you faster!

School is still bad, but hopefully I can get my chemistry grade up in the next 1 and a half months... can't believe I am already halfway done with the semester! Time is flying! but at the same time it is going oh so slow. haha If I don't think about you then time goes fast, but lately that is just not possible, i need to think about you or i will go crazy haha I have had many nights of wearing ponchos and a "cats" sweatshirt :) Do you remember when you gave me that sweatshirt?? I remember... we were going to go to wendys after school and it was raining, so you gave it to me, then i tried to give it back before you left and you said that I had to keep it ha and you gave me ketchup and a bunch of other random stuff that you found in your jeep... hahahah i still have it all :) and i am so glad. i remember i was so twitter patted that day ;)

Apparently I have a new calling... the counselor said "it's a fun one!" whatever that means. haha I was in benson today though so I will have to wait until next week to find out, it will be good to have a calling. I need a visiting teaching assignment and visiting teachers too! and home teachers! our house is super creepy... and we want someone to bless it so that we feel more safe... that may sound really stupid but i really think it will help, we just don't really know anyone that we could ask.

Quote! "Often we do not know what we can endure until after a trial of our faith." -robert D. hales I heard this in institute this week and it really helped me out. Somehow in institute there is always something that is exactly what I need to hear... not a coincidence. I know that Heavenly Father doesn't give us more that we can bear, he knows our potential and how strong we can be. Sometimes he allows us to be stretched to our limits like a rubber band, but he never lets us break. My institute teacher's wife has stage 4 cancer...yikes. It makes all my problems seem like nothing. But each persons problems, no matter how big or small are important, to them and to Heavenly Father. He cares more than we will ever be able to comprehend. I love you klay :) keep on keepin on.

God sent us here and our duty is to harden to be able to sustain ourselves. if you let go of a noodle it just curls up on the floor, and if you leave it like that, it will dry and be a noodle that just isn't hardened correctly. every time we sin, it is as if we spray some water on ourselves impeding ourselves from hardening or if we sin hard enough, we throw ourselves to the ground and we start to dry up un properly. but, as we live righteously, we the light and heat dry us up to the point that we are able to have the hand of god support us from the base instead of the top of the noodle cuz we are strong enough support ourselves, yet we still need the support of God to hold us from the bottom, to guide us. i hope that i created a beautiful picture in your pretty little head :) hehe. we will do it for a family home evening one week with our little family! we baptized a kid named miguel tula! he is a stud! and now i am in san pedro. it will be quite the adventure learning how to control a zone. if i am able to control a zone, why not a beautiful home with a precious wife? hehe. i am glad that you are getting letters afull!!! what do you think about sheep? we could make our own blankets and clothes and stuff!!!! haha. hey if you want to start looking for scholarships and stuff, and cheap land that we can buy and make a glorious kingdom! haha just take the money out and buy it haha. i also want a lot of trees did i tell ya? i have learned this lesson a lot in my mission. if a tree is pruned right, when it is older, it is formed in the way of the gardeners hands. i am so happy lou!!! all my dreams are coming true! if we having nothin but we are able to be together. i will be happy, but i know that it will be such a high quality life for our family with our early planning and preparation to be able to raise the little ones in that way. i want to be their best friends you know? can you imagine the spiritual growth with hands on learning of pruning the trees? what an impact that it will have in their lives!!! hehe. we have to make the vision bigger lou!!!! i want you to continue developing your talents okay? i know you are already one talented cookie! but keep working hard to learn and practice! i want to be able to say "between me and my wife, we can do all things" i don't want to be able to do all things alone, i just want to learn with ya. . .that will be the joy of my life :) but! i be baptizin this month okay? pray for me i pray for you! keep working hard in school and know that you are a cute noodle that is just hardening in its upright form and god sustains you from the top. not yourself. i love you little one. remember, receiving that answer from God means that the words said are also yours and my gifts are yours, for God made you for me and we are those words are meant for the union of two. for that, read and find which parts pertain to you, and follow the words of the God of Israel :) i love you little one. you are my sunshine, my hero, my example, my emulation, my girl! thank you for all that you do. i want to praise you for the good you do. you truly are so persevering, if i could have your perseverance i would be set. for that i need you. hehe. work hard lou. pray for guidance and do a fast so that you can concentrate, surely the Lord will fight this battle with you.
