August 5th….6 weeks down

It's been a month that Sister Potter has been out and she is doing amazing! She is in a small town called Ava, Missouri. Her Companion, Sister Mordicai is from Lehi, Utah and she only has a few weeks left before she returns home. Sister Potter has had many service opportunities, one being that she is helping build a Cobb house which is made out of mud and dirt, for a family to live in. One of her first lessons she got to teach was to a family of 5 the dads name is Bucky and his wives name is Mary she taught about the first vision and in the MTC she was challenged to memorize the first vision so when she got to teaching them she said it all by memory and she got the chills and knows that heavenly father helped her and knew the holy ghost was in the room with them, Bucky then agreed to be baptized and is now deciding a date for his baptism.
She then shared with us testimony which is: I know that my redeemer lives and I know that he died on the cross for us so that we could live with our heavenly father again. I know that Joseph Smith restored this gospel on the earth so that we could have this gospel. I know that our heavenly father and Jesus Christ appeared to Joseph Smith so that we have the church on the earth and I know that my heavenly father loves all of his children even the ones that won't quit smoking, i know that we can live with our heavenly Father again when we do and I love this gospel with all my heard and i know that this gospel is true and that we have a modern day prophet on the earth today to guide us and I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ our savior amen.

Week 1&2….July 11th

Sister Potter is doing extremely well! She is in the MTC until wednesday, July 16th then she will head to Tulsa Oklahoma to bless the life's of many. She has been learning so many things is what she tells us. We have gotten 2 emails from her now and she from each one everything she has said is very positive so she is having a great start to her mission! She has 2 companions, they are in a 3 some and one of her companions she met on Facebook on the missionary group before her mission and she is actually going to the same mission as Sister Potter so thats very exciting! Once she gets out in the field we will have more to tell you about what she is doing but for now just know she is doing wonderful and is having a great experience so far.

My New College Life!

Hey blogers i am so sorry its been a really long time since my last post. and alot of stuff has happened since August. so here is what has happened i moved away from home and i am in college now i have 5 wonderful roommates that i adore, i am loving college life and being away from home. and just this last Monday the 29th of October was true badger night oh and by the way i am at snow college in Ephraim Utah. so any way true badger night is when its a full moon and at midnight at our bell tower that is on campus at midnight the bell tower goes off and we all make kiss someone until the gonging ends and so its pretty much a make out session, and so any way i went to true badger night and i finally got my first kiss even though it was with a total stranger that i didn't know it was still a magical night for me. and then on Wednesday Halloween i dressed up as Mrs. Justin bieber. i am completely obsessed with Justin Bieber ever since i came to college i got obsessed with him I'm listening to him 24/7 pretty much and i love him to death. so any way i went to the Halloween dance that snow put on that night, it was really fun!! i saw some pretty interesting costumes that college students thought of. so ya any way this whole week has been very busy and happy at the same time!! i love college so much its great to be away from my family and on my own now!!! 

So on to my music now. i am in a choir class here at snow and its really fun we get to sing lots of fun stuff like for our Christmas concert we get to sing "the most wonderful time of the year", that is one of my favorite Christmas songs to listen to during the holidays. a month ago we sang a song that was in German it was the hardest song to sing ever but we did it and it was fun because it was  the band and orchestra and real canons. my choir professor is amazing his name is Dr. maredeith and he is so funny but only on days that he is in a really good mood shich is most of the time. he trys to song the 1st sapranos notes and of course he cant because he is a guy but it is hilarous when he trys to. So ya thats what has happened lately since the last blog post. blog ya soon blogers.

P.S Here is a video of me and my roommates having fun last night. we were really bored so we decided to go matress serfing down our stairs.
