Sister Phelps & Sister Anderson
mtc district/provo temple
This week has gone by so fast.  I saw Sister Phelps yesterday and Sister Clark and Sister Zollinger leave today.  I am so sad to see them go but also very excited at the same time.  I love to go to the Temple. 

General Conference was so great and the spirit was so strong here in the mtc.  When we went to conference in April it was such an uplifting experience but the mtc surpasses it.  With all the missionaries here and their faith and spirits it is amazing.

Tagalog is still challenging but me and my companion are learning to smile all the time even when it is hard.  Every Sunday night the mtc has movies we can watch and last night we watched Legacy.

I am still not used to getting up really early so be the end of the day I am definitely ready for bed.  I have been taking a lot of pictures and with me in them!!!

It has been so weird sometimes because when I am having a bad day or something is just not going right, Elder Lowry comes and gives me a letter from home.  I also seem to get letters on the days when it is hard.  I like it!!! :)

It rained on us the other day when we went for our temple walk which was so nice.  I love the smell of rain.  Good thing I am going to the Philippines because that is as close to swimming as I can get for a while. 

OOOO' the other day somebody was cooking popcorn in the microwave and burnt it really bad.  The smoke detectors went off and all the sisters had to evacuate.  We were all in our pj's.  And a girl was in the shower, so she wrapped three towels around her and went outside.  I was in my Eeyore pj's.

I am so grateful for everything that my family and friends have done for me.  Conference was really special to me and I felt the spirit so much.  There were some talks that I felt were speaking directly to me and I am thankful.

Love, Sis. Anderson
