I hope they call me on a mission....

You would think I would be done sending missionaries out, but nope! My friend Chris is leaving to serve a mission in Singapore on Wednesday! His farewell was today, and it was great to see him one last time before he goes to serve the Lord for 2 years. Chris and I met at work in January and became best friends almost instantly. He is such a great guy, and I really wouldn't have made it through some of the days I had without him there to tell me it was all going to be alright!!  I love you Chris :) I'm so proud of you! 

Kisses for Elder Steele before he heads off to Singapore! 

This one is kinda gross, but oh well! 

"Let's just say there were fireworks!"

One of the many beautiful things about EFY is the fact that you make such great friends! There are these things called COW's (crushes of the week), and my COW this week was Richard! He danced with me at the dance and then asked me on a date. We went to my BC, Cami Jo's house for a triple date and it was so stinkin fun! I haven't had that much fun in a while! We had our hands tied together and made pizza and cookies. It was great! :) I LOVE BEING YOUNG! :)
Jake and Maddie attempted to make cookies and added too much water, so this cookie goop was the result!

Jake's newest invention.. the cookie pancake!
Me and Richard all tied together.. poor guy had to be tied to me for like 3 hours!

The beautiful pizza dough we made! :)

EFY Round 2

I just got finished with my second week of EFY. This week was definitely a humbling experience. I think Heavenly Father thought that the best way for me to grow spiritually was to humble me a little bit and give me a group that was a little more challenging. They weren't way misbehaved, but they were harder to connect with and I had a hard time feeling like I was getting through to them. My testimony of prayer was strengthened numerous times this week, and I am glad that I had this experience. I really did grow closer to my Heavenly Father throughout this experience. At the end of the week I was able to look around the circle at all of my kids and realize how much I really did love them and how much I was going to miss them. EFY ROCKS! :) There are pictures as always of course!
Me and the boys from Do Not Procrastinate! They were such great guys! :)
Do Not Procrastinate! Our company this week!
My girls and I.. this isn't even all of them, I was constantly looking for at least one of them all week!

My co's Mason and Maren! They were so great ! :)

Oh just taking a little nap.. EFY is exhausting!
Button up your collar Wednesday.. AKA "NERD DAY!"

ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT HEY! E-F-Y!

I had the opportunity to be an EFY counselor this week! It was such a great experience! My girls were absolutely amazing, and all of the youth were so strong! There is no doubt in my mind that they were saved for this day because they are so much stronger than I am. Their testimonies are so strong and they really want to be good people. I am so glad that I had the opportunity, and that I get to do this for 3 more weeks this summer! :) 

Me and my girls! :) 

Me and fellow counselor Brandan! 

Me and the boys from Seek Ye! 

This one just makes me laugh because Michael looks like he might attack me at any moment, and I have no clue what is going on! 

My whole group of kids :) 

Seek Ye! (Our company name!) 

And last, but certainly not least, my favorite Colorado boys! They weren't even in my company, but I made friends with them at lunch one day. They were so respectful and just really great guys! Cam (black shirt) was even nice enough to come and dance with me when I was on dance duty!

Overall EFY was just great! :)
