2 Years...

It was something that happened 2 years ago today that changed my life...who I am...forever. Two years ago today I finished up another semester at BYU-Idaho. But that's not what changed my life. No, I'll be back there in another 6 days. But two years ago today, I got something in the mail that changed my life: My mission call! It was such a wonderful blessing to be able to go on a mission. Now...well, it's hard to believe that it's in the past. Someone came into work today, and described being an RM in a way that sums it up perfectly: Now, as an RM, the mission seems like a dream, not the reality. It makes me sad to know that I'll never be back there...but at the same time, when I look at who I have become, I am so extremely grateful.

Please join me in a photo journey of the past 2 years

Reading my "trunky papers" This is the opposite from the first pictures in this post. This is my call to return home. Not that I wasn't excited to come home...but I was NOT excited to leave the place and people I had grown to love so much.
