IMG_9464 (1)IMG_9462Well to all my young subscribers I’m sorry this week hasn’t been near as exciting as the last few, but at least I know my grandma’s will read this email with ease:) love you all lol

You will all be please to hear though that the pollo rojo influenza has passed and we are all back on a regular schedule again hahaha if ya know what I mean.

Spanish is hard and I dont really know what I’m doing but lifes good and I’m figuring it out Haha. 

Speaking of,

RULE #1 FLY BY THE SEAT OF YOUR PANTS life is always more exciting like that. Like be prepared and wear pants, but dont be prepared to wing it Haha. 

Example number 1, throughout the week were all supposed to prepare a 5 min talk in Spanish so that on Sunday the branch presidency can randomly select a few of us. I prepared my talk but it wasn’t great, but I was ready. I asked the 2nd councilor who was speaking, because were tight with him, and said “just please not move-I’m ready but I’d rather speak on a different topic”….he smiled, said okay, and I got called to speak in sacrament. But the other part of the story was, that I had just enough time to review my talk and decide I hated every bit of it and it wasn’t what I wanted to say, so I rewrote 5 bullet points, in English, during someone else’s talk and went up there with that instead. I winged it. And was congratulated by the entire branch presidency about how powerful my message was. Ha I dont know what I said! But it worked!!!! 

Also about the title I’ve been named Hermama Wood as district mom Haha, but to celebrate me special day on Sunday we took family pictures:) enjoy yourselves… oof Haha. 

Spiritual thought for the week is from our Law of chastity lesson this week. “Yall ain’t gon be clean if yall ain’t gon repe’t yerselfs” Alma 60:23

Jk really I wanna ask you all to ask God if he loves you, make sure you know and understand that he knows and loves ya more than anyone in this earth. So say a prayer and LOOK for the ways. And then email me and tell me how it went<3  LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH<3 write me losers…. please:)

Small town girl. Lover of stories. Believer in God, family, America, and in finding beauty in both the past and the here and now. I grew up alongside my five siblings as our parents dreamed and worked and picked themselves up time and again while creating their small business . Interestingly, I married my high school sweetheart, who now co-owns his own small family business with his brother- the same business that he grew up in, working alongside his dad. We have five kids of our own (who are pretty cool, if I must say so myself), and both understand the grit and determination it takes to build our own dreams. I feel honored to share our story here and join my parents and brothers in their desire to create a welcoming, positive spot – where we can share stories and resources for those wanting to make memories with the people they love the most.
