Tonight my (Abbey's) Mom and Dad came over and we ate dinner and watched a great Sunday movie. It's called "Errand of Angels". It was so awesome 0f them to make the effort to come hang out with us. I love em' to pieces. I did my second or third crock pot meal ever and it turned out okay. The chicken was good but the rest of it was a little watered down. Dad was nice and ate the whole thing. On the other hand, the movie we watched was really good. Errand of Angels is a movie about sister missionaries. I recommend it. It was very realistic. The only things that I would add are: laughing your head off with your companion over really dumb things that you would have never found funny before you were a missionary, more tracting, more hugs and more tears. I'm so grateful for the experiences and further conversion I had While serving a mission :) [Picture: This was the first door I knocked on as a missionary.] My companion was not impressed with how softly I knocked on the door. She told me to "Knock like the Church is true!" I never forgot that :)
Greg was also able to serve a mission and he loved it! He had many wonderful experiences as well.
The Gospel IS true!

You are the cutest missionary ever! I have never seen pics of you on your mission, it was fun to see this one! Did you freeze? It looks so cold! You know how I love love love missionaries! I have very fond memories of sitting across from them in your living room! Sean and I spoke in church yesterday about Sacrament and the Holy Ghost and I shared my experience of the first time I went to a Sacrament meeting with your fam. Whenever I recall those memories I am so grateful for your example and for how comfortable your family made sure I was.
One of the moms of a priest that Sean and I used to teach Sunday School to came up to me after and said she was glad I shared that b/c the youth need to hear stories about people who are invited to come to church by youth and end up converting and still giving a talk 13 years later. I thought that was an interesting perspective on my conversion and it made me realize how brave yall were to invite me. A lot of youth are scared to ask b/c they think the person will say no for sure. I am so glad yall took the leap of faith and shared with me. Thanks Abbs! Love ya, Allie
What a cute little sister!
