This video is an "I'm A Mormon" video done for a guy that lives here in Dublin! It's the coolest video ever. Let me tell you why.
1) The place he is hiking is the place I have been hiking a couple times.
2) His son and daughter are in the YSA with me!
3) I went to Manchester with his daughter
3) His other daughter is in my ward
4) I'm babysitting #3 daughter's kids this weekend
5) He talks like an Irish person
6) He says the word lovely
Are you convinced yet? Watch it. So cool!

Oh The Crazy Ideas We Come Up With
What else would you do at 10 pm at night than go on a run? Right?
Oh the crazy things this girl does with me. Love her for it!
Tender Mercy
This my friends is the best tender mercy I could have asked for today!
I'm sitting here in the main lobby of my school, craving chocolate (which happens a lot lately), but it's too cold to leave the school, so I just keep working on my project when all of the sudden a student rep comes up to me and hands me this!
CHOCOLATE. Life doesn't get any better.
I think I have a problem.

Oh The Irish
Brilliant. That's a word people say here a lot. They use it in the same context that we would use the word "great" in the states. "That's a great idea" = Irish Translation = "That's a brilliant idea". Just another one of the many little differences in this country!
The levels of a building. In the states we would call the ground level, level 1 and so forth. Here the ground level is level 0 and so forth. So I live on the floor above ground level and so here in Ireland it is called the 1st level, even though in the states it would be called the 2nd level. The little differences. All so interesting.
It's cold here. And humid. What a mix. For those of you that have experienced cold and wet, you know what it's like. For those of you that haven't, it's kind of miserable. You know when you go swimming in the winter time and then you have to walk outside in the cold and you're still wet and your hair is wet and you feel so cold, to the bone? That's what it is like here, all day, every day, all the time! It's mad. (Did you catch the use of that Irish word? Mad. Instead of crazy.)

A Weekend in Manchester, England
I spent a couple of days in Manchester, England! What an experience. The temple there is beautiful and on the grounds there is also a stake center, MTC, accommodation center, distribution center and accommodation for temple workers. Pretty amazing! A great weekend!
Sheila. A relative of mine in Manchester, England! Somehow we are related!

This girl! She rocks my world! We dressed up for the Relief Society activity this past week as the Queen of Hearts. And so of course this time called for a selfie. And it took a few tries, but we finally got it. I taught Nikki how to take the "perfect" selfie. Haha! Too much fun with this girl! Too much fun.
