Easter



Kala came down from Rexburg for Easter.
She came for the weekend to attend a friends wedding at Salt Lake. It was nice to see her again. It was Katrina's birthday on Friday, so I made her a cake and she celebrated on Saturday with friends. Afterward, Kala, Mike, Dan and I went bowling at the Wilk. Also, it was really random because we ran into Gene Kyle(BF from Ottawa). It was really fun, except that Dan kept beating me by 2 points. I tried!!
We played games and hung out. I love my sister and her husband (Mike) they are so fun. I always laugh so much with my sister it makes us both cry!!
I love spring it starts getting colorful again!

Niall's Mission Call


My brother received his mission call last week. He was so excited. He called me right after he opened it. He asked me to guess where he is going. I totally guessed the country right!!

He is going to the London, England mission.



So, he leaves July 3rd. He will going straight to the England MTC.
Niall already has a UK passport, it will be like he is going HOME!!
i think London is the perfect mission for him. Niall will be able to get into many doors based on his love of football (soccer). I am so excited for him and wish him good luck! It will be very rainy and probably a hard mission, but he has grown up so much (spiritually and physically). I think Niall will be a great missionary.


In case you don't know where London is:


Niall and his friend Dexter are leaving on their mission within a couple months of each other. Dexter is going to Los Angeles(region, mandarin speaking!
