A Fun Story

I read an article today that was really interesting to me. It is about the Christus statue at Temple Square in Salt Lake City. I have seen the statue many times during my life, but I never knew anything about its history, the man who created it, or how it ended up in Salt Lake. There is a special feeling of peace and love in the visitor's center where the statue stands. I am grateful for Christ and the blessings in my life that come from knowing Christ lives and loves us. I love history and learning new things, so it was fun to read this article. The story is by Matthew O. Richardson. I'm posting a link to it if anyone else is interested, you can check it out at http://ldslivingmagazine.com/articles/show/1421. Thanks for reading my blog :)

My Cute Missionary

James is serving in the Charlotte North Carolina Mission. He is one transfer (6 weeks) away from the one year mark. Yay! The time has just flown by! He is loving all the work he gets to do. Every email we get from him is so positive. He has had a couple of baptisms over the past few weeks. He was also recently made senior companion. Before he left he said he wanted to come home a "big fat boy" and he has met his goal! He has gained about 20 pounds as a result of that good southern cooking. He is really having a lot of fun out there in North Carolina.
If you want to send him a letter, you can send it through the mission office:

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to my blog! This is my first time using a blog, and I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing. I hope I have enough time to keep it up, but it might take me a bit to really get it going.
