Missionary work
Being in Ireland I have been surrounded by missionary work and missionary opportunities daily, some of them I don't see until later but I know I have been more than lucky to tell people about the gospel, and what we believe in. At school someone who went there before me left some weird impressions on people and stuff about our church and so I have been asked ridiculous questions and some of them I just have to laugh at, for example: "are you aloud to talk to boys?", "aren't you not aloud to date until your 18?" " are you aloud to kiss?" "are you aloud to Go to parties, and can you drink and stuff" that one was more serious but some just crack me up, but with the Faloon's in the school now I think we can get a pretty good name to the Mormons, and straighten out some questions. Sometimes when im telling my mom about someone ssking me stuff at school i cant even remeber how I worded something but I know Heavenly Father helped me know what the correct thing to say was. I have also spent a lot of time with the missionaries, they eat at our house all the time and always come with a lesson which I love and then ask us to do something, by doing the simple things challenges they give us I have felt my testimony grow stronger. I have become good friends with the sister missionaries, and last night for mutual they talked to us about why they came on missions, and at first I really just thought heck no am I going to serve a mission but they said something that really hit me "I decided I could leave my family for a short time, to help others be with there families forever." Sister Fisher. After that I felt that this is something I could do, maybe not when I'm 21, but maybe be a senior couple.

France!!
Last week my family and I were able to visit France for the first time since we lived there!!! It was amazing we had beautiful weather, and we're able to see old friends and be total tourists all over again! The first day we got there I was able to see my 2 good friends from 6th grade, Julie and Emily it was a blast and as ended up having a sleepover that night ;) the next day we went to have breakfast with some old friends who were our neighbors. Okay there house was amazing! It was quite tall but was decorated so nice! I kinda just wanted to move right in with them While we were in France we were able to see my "sister" Marie who had lived with us for a few months a few years ago and was able to spend some time with her which was grand! We were also able to go see all of our favorite sites! I forgot how much I absolutely adore that beautiful country and food ;)
