Genealogy

So I promised Elder Land that I would help him with his Pedigree... well it sounded like a good idea. Dad has shown me how to do the group sheets and how to get the names all temple ready. BUT I had no Idea that it would be so hard to find the rest of his family without paying to go through some service. I know his parents names, his Dad's grandparents, and his grandmother's name... I need to find all the dates however... It is pretty discouraging. I just thought that if the dates where pretty recent like in the last 20 years it would be a cinch to find the information. I don't want to join an expensive genealogy site... I just want to be able to find his family. (sigh..) I am thinking that I am doing it wrong... I looked at the town that Adam was born in and I was able to find the newspaper that his Grandma's obit was in so I am thinking I can send for that. That was my only luck today. Hopefully maybe I can hit the Genealogy library sometime and maybe I'll have a little luck.

wisdom teeth and other oddities...

Feeling very tired, but I know it's gonna be worth it. I got all four of my impacted wisdom teeth removed and it's been about four days since the actual extraction. It really wasn't as bad I as I thought it would be. Dr. Williams took great care of me. And my nurse was really nice too. She let me crush her hand when they put the IV in... lol.. She was the mother of a kid I went to high school with so she got to hear that I thought he was a great kid. lol... I just remember saying "Woah... that's weird," as I went out... Next thing I knew my Nurse was walking me carefully into the next room to lie down and wait for mom. 

Yesterday I came home from Nannying and I talked to mom about five minutes and then I went downstairs to bed and CRASHED. Mom was knocking on my door this morning and was kinda scared cause it took me a minute to wake up. I am still really tired and I might crash again tonight. Good news however, I am not even taking Ibuprofen. So I should be back in the swing of things hopefully soon. I just have Monster breath and can't really open my mouth yet. I had to move my dentist appointment to next thusday... boy. I am not excited for that one... That is going to be really expensive. But again it will be worth it. 

I got to talk to Elder Land for a little bit Monday. That was Awkward/nice at the same time. 
He told me that he wished that he could make me feel better and that he could give me a big hug. He was so sweet. I sure miss that boy. 

All I need to get my Papers done now is to 
Fix my Cavity
Get my Hepatitis series of shots 1,2,3.
Drivers License... Gotta up load it somehow...
Ask President Lott about the Payment system. For some strange reason I can't get that to finish even though I am pushing the Finish Button... :(

I am very excited to be getting my Makeup!!!!  My sister-in-law offered to get me some Mary Kay products when I graduated. I however was not schooled in the ways of How AWESOME this makeup is... and haven't taken her up on the offer... Well I am now. My sisters say that it lasts forever and it will last my entire mission. Plus it will be cheaper cause I am ordering it through my sisters. (that includes you Carrie...)  I can't wait to see how great it's gonna be to have a great look and be so Cute on my Mission. Cause No one wants to look like a Grandma on your Mission when you are only 21.  :)

Just so that everyone knows I am currently filling out mission papers. I am very excited and nervous about it all at the same time. I am trying to figure out how I am going to pay for it all but I'll find a way to. I know that I want to do this and everything seems to be working out, like puzzle pieces going together. I haven't felt this happy about something in a long while and I am happy that my family seems excited about it. 

I am really nervous about going to get my physical and shots though.. I haven't been to a real appointment since kindergarten. I went to the ER and got a tetanus shot two years ago, But that doesn't really count. Lucky me however that my sis is willing to drive down from Boise to hold my hand... :) 

I just need to call the insurance company and have docs check me out... And I will be done! I just hope that it works out.

I went to the Twin Falls Temple on Friday the 26th of February.  It was a wonderful time to relax and to just listen to the inner feelings of my heart. I wanted to be with a group so I had a good long hour and half wait. But I really enjoyed talking with the temple worker's and reading my PB and Adam's Valentine's Day Letter. They both had a soothing spirit. I am helping Adam with some genealogy and I had the chance to take Adam's Dad to the temple. I sent Adam his Dad's Name in the mail so that when he has the chance He can do the work for his father. I felt so happy and nothing can describe the peace I found. I haven't felt that peace in a long time. I felt like the World had nothing on me. The fears about the Future swept away and there was no worry. Only the Love Heavenly Father had for me. I Know that he has helped me through so much. He certainly helped me by giving me Parents and Family that loves me. 

I cannot wait for the Day when I can be Married in the Temple. When I can celebrate my love and happiness with all of my family. To be able to look at my photo album and see my Siblings all there... (except for Myron cause He might be on his mission.) :)
