Visitors


Yesterday Leila Traina and Shana Fossum came over for a visit. It was very nice see them. Shana brought her youngest 3 boys. The last time I saw Shana was at my sisters house when she was still pregnant with Hiram. Time really flies because Hiram is already I think 8months old! He is adorable along with the rest of her children. Anyway, I was very happy that they stopped by and invited me to church and some Relief Society activities. Sometimes when you become inactive it's hard to go back. I guess you just need a little push and someone to reach out and let you know that your always welcome. For me becoming inactive had a little to do with being married to a nonmember. And instead of going to church I chose to stay home and spend Sunday with my whole family. Even though I've only been to church a few times in the past year(always with my sister and her family) I haven't lost my testimony. I remember growing up in the church, and how much I enjoyed dressing up for church every sunday, wednessday night activities, girls camp, working on the Young Womens Progress projects, etc. I really want to make an effort to go back to church so Chloe can experience everything that is so wonderful about our church. Maybe if i go back to church everything else will fall into place, Jim may decide to come with us one day.

I just want you to know that sometimes it is hard to get back on track. But you have a lot of people in that ward who will welcome you with open arms. I will be there this sunday! you should come. It starts at 10am ps. how do you spell your maiden name?

I totally agree with Jessica, Covington is the best place to go. I think you would enjoy meeting other moms with children close to your little ones age. So I hope to hear more about your trip to church!!!
