Snow, Snow and more SNOW!

What a crazy couple of weeks. Sorry about last week. All of the libraries were closed due to the snow and then I never had a chance to e-mail the rest of the week.

Monday morning was supposed to be call-outs. Call-outs are when we find out about transfers, who is going and who is staying. We had a good feeling that Sis. Byers was leaving but I was a nervous wreck all day. Due to the snow, call-outs didn't happen till monday evening. Then monday night at 9:15 we found out that there was going to be an emergency transfer meeting the next morning at 9. Sis. Byers didn't have time to say goodbye to anyone. It was sad for her. Then at 10:15 monday night President Belliston called me and extended the call to serve as a trainer. I accepted the call then FREAKED OUT. Training at 6 months is nuts! I had a feeling that it would happen but never thought it would REALLY happen this soon. So Transfers were Tuesday morning and the greenies flight got cancelled and re-scheduled for thursday.

President Belliston let Sis. Lindsey and I spend a few days together before she headed back home to STG. Due to the huge snow storm that was coming our way tuesday evening and all of Wednesday President didn't want the both of us to be stranded in Kent Island so he had us stay at the mission home. I was so excited but the only problem was I didn't have a change of clothes. So all week I had to borrow Sis. Lindsey's clothes. It was tons of fun to be stranded at the mission home for a few days but at the same time it was hard. I was there with 4 missionaries who were going home.....which was great for the morale...NOT! I felt like my mission was over and I was flying home with them, it was weird! President and Sis. Belliston kept on asking me if I was okay then I would give some funny remark back. I just LOVE both of them dearly. Although, it was very weird to see President in sweats!

Tuesday evening we went to Baltimore City. We went to the famous Lexington Market and had some crab cakes. I LOVE seafood (what is up with that?)!!! Wednesday we were stranded all day inside. The snow kept on coming and coming. It was INSANE! The snow was well above my waist. We would jump off the deck and land in it. One of the Elders was doing back flips off of the deck and landing in the snow.

Friday I finally got paired up with my new "daughter"....SISTER VAUGHAN. She is so cute! She is from Great Falls, Montana and is a twin! She has a twin brother. We are getting a long so well. She just turned 22 in the MTC and is going to be a nurse. She is completely fearless. Knocking doesn't bother her. We have had some good times already. I can't wait to see what we can accomplish this transfer. I love her already!~! Yeah!

Just to let all of you know it is snowing right now again. I am starting to get a little sick of the snow. Oh well!!!!

I would like to thank all of you for the cute love notes that were found in my Valentine's package from home!!! It was so great to hear from so many friends and family!!! Thanks so much for the continued support. Serving a mission has been the best decision I have made thus far in my life. It is such blessing to be the Lord's representative.

Love you all, Sis. B
