Dear Family and Other People who read my Blog,

Hello and how are you? I'm sorry to hear Edna Browne passed away. I loved her so much, she radiated happiness when she was around. Mom, I'm glad that you got to talk to her.

I'm glad Taylor had fun at the dance. What a cutie. She actually went to the dance, I'm so proud. I never spent more than 1/2 an hour at the dance so more power to her for staying and teaching her date how to dance.

This week has been interesting. It was Spring Break here so we had an interesting time finding stuff to do. We had some service around the city. We went to TCC to help with the High School Brain Bowl. Turns out I'm smarter than I thought I was. I knew most of the answers (except the Math but that's a given) we also had a major miracle. Last summer when I was here with Sister Scoresby and Sister Benfield we were teaching a girl named Brandy, she loved what we were teaching but her dad was very against it, she lost her phone and got a new number and we lost contact. She was in one of the Brain Bowl groups I was helping with so I was able to talk to her. She said she was turning 18 in three months and would contact us then. Talk about a miracle.

Saturday we had an hour bike ride do more service, FSU Elders came with us, it was a tough ride. After I decided that I didn't have to keep up with the Elders it became much easier, but I didn't decide that till on the way back. Silly me. Anyway the service we did was for the Red Cross, we were helping set up for a big shindig for the rich and famous. It looked pretty cool by the time we were done if I do say so myself.

Carly was baptized this week. And tonight we are going over to her place to teach her, Krissie, and Tanya how to do the Utah bump. So my hair is currently straight so I can join in on the fun. What makes this a story is the fact that I told Elder Rass I wouldn't do my my hair straight again till after he left. Unfortunately, I like Carly more than my pride so...I will be teased a lot tonight. Oh well - it'll be worth it.

This morning we played broom hockey and got a lot of aggression out, it was very good for those of us that were there. (TCC wouldn't come the shmucks) My team won, I was appointed team captain I choose my team and we won. Go us.

Oh funny story. Elder Rass had a bunch of hideous ties and one particularly bad one is one that has red Peacocks and mauve roses on it. We stole it and are holding it ransom till he thinks of something that we would want to trade for it. In the mean time, we are taking the tie with us and taking pictures of it doing things its just not made to do. Then we torture him by showing him said pictures while he searches our stuff trying to find the thing. He's been so close before we thought we'd lost it a couple times but he still remains oblivious to its whereabouts.

So that was my week. We aren't at computers were the computer has easy access so I can't send pictures but I will do so on Friday. I love you all but I am out of time. Thanks for your letters, prayers and love they mean so much.

Love ya, Kelli
