LEBANON, NEW HAMPSHIRE!!

Hello my family that I miss SOOOO MUCH! I'm here and I can't believe it! But I have to fill you in on the rest of my time at the MTC and such. Um, I sang in the choir for the first time EVER that the Tuesday Devotional was held in the Marriott Center, very cool experience! We sang Called to Serve of course. My last few days at the MTC were GREAT. I didn't really want to leave, haha. I ended up liking it a lot more than I thought I would. My district was fantastic and funny and I loved spending time with them. Our district was a pilot group for new things they're trying out, that's why we taught so many times. I'm glad we did though, because it gave me a TON of practice. 

We flew out of SLC very early Monday morning and arrived in Manchester early evening. President Wilkey and his wife were there to meet us. They are soooo nice. Sister Wilkey had made Cafe Rio salads for dinner, so that was AWESOME. Also this group of missionaries was the biggest they've ever had come in to the NHMM, 29 baby! 19 sisters and 10 elders. Some of the sisters and I slept at the Mission Home that night. Tuesday was Transfer Day, so we went to Transfer Meeting and I found out my companion and area! My companion is...oh it's so funny! Her name is Sister Brown too! EVERYONE makes jokes about it, haha. It's funny, I like it. She's awesome and we get along really well. She's only been out for six weeks, so we are definitely learning together. It's been pretty good though. Our area is Lebanon, New Hampshire. We live basically in the middle of nowhere, haha. I do LOVE the trees though. Also, we're opening the area for sisters so that's been pretty crazy too.

We don't have any investigators yet, but we're trying! We've visited a lot of less active members. The Tinei family (they're from the Marshall Islands) did a cookout for us and we shared a little message about the Restoration. They are very nice. They didn't come to church, but we hope to see them there soon. Church was really good! The ward here is great. They asked me to play the piano in Primary, the kids were so cute. One red head kid named Isaac was talking to his teacher and said, "I'm a famous singer. I'm a famous dancer. I'm a famous cellist." It made me laugh pretty hard. And this little girl named Sara told me that she doesn't like to snuggle. It was just so random and funny. Sister Brown and I taught the lesson in Relief Society about Missionary Work and how members can help. OH and I also heard that song by Celine Dion that's called "How do I live without you?" in a gas station. I thought of y'all :)

Well, I've got to go. Time is a-ticking. I LOVE EACH OF YOU SO MUCH! I pray for you daily and hope you can feel my love :)

LOVE-E-O-SA! Sister Brown
