Missin' My Missionaries

I've been writing back and forth to quite a few of my friends, and man I miss them. So I'm just gonna put up a picture and write a little blurb about each of them :)

Brendan Cannon:

Serving in the exotic Des Moines, Iowa Mission. Ha he loves it though. He's an amazing friend, one I've had since seventh grade. His letters are full of gems of wisdom and advice and humor. Getting letters from him MAKES MY DAY. This is a picture of our unit right after we won state. Brendan is the one bending over backwards in front of us :)

Grant Nordine:

Serving in Oooooooklahoma. I don't have a picture of the 2 of us, because our relationship is weird....I've only ever met him once or twice. He's my best friend Alexa's best friend. But we get along extremely well. We have almost the exact same sense of humor, and his letters are packed full of poorly drawn pictures and witticisms. Since I don't have a picture of the 2 of us, this is one of him and Alexa :)

Andy Chaparro:

Andy is in the Osorno, Chile mission. I've known Andy for a while. He's one of the sweetest, most caring people I've ever met. He dated Kenzie for a while, and we got pretty close during that. This picture is of us out in Mendon watching a baseball game and waiting for fireworks the summer before I left for Snow. It was an amazing night :)

James Mitchell:

James is in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Man I love this kid. I went to my first dance with James, and we had a blast. He's HILARIOUS. For example, in his most recent letter to me, he drew a picture of Godzilla destroying the town of Tokyo on the back. Super random, but appreciated. This picture is pretty old. It was taken at my 18th birthday party.

Kadie Clark:

Kadie was my roommate my first year at Snow. She's serving in Ukraine. She's absolutely amazing. She's one of the nicest people I've ever met, and she is so stinkin cute I could die.

Todd Partridge:

Oh Todd. He's in West Virginia, I believe. We have been through a whole lot. Case in point: This is a picture of us together after we got in a car crash in Logan canyon on the way home from Bear Lake. The airbags kind of tore our faces up, so this picture is SUPER attractive. But he's wonderful, and I miss all the crazy stuff we did together.

Sam Bennion:

Sam is in Forks, Washington, which is ironic. Ironic because he despises Twilight so much he's been on public radio to talk about his hatred for it. His letters are the best. They're full of pictures and hilarious stories and anecdotes. They go on for pages. This picture is of us in Washington, D.C. for We the People. I don't really know it happened...but we decided if we made a movie poster called "Cousins: The great frontier." He's my cousin. :)

I'm also pretty freaking excited to start writing to a couple people who will be leaving soon, namely Alli and Mandy. This is the two of them. Alli is on the left, Mandy on the right. I love both of them :)

Alli is going to Nicaragua, and Mandy is going to Peru.

I just really miss them all, and am excited for them to come back!
