So funny Abby story this week. She has watched Frozen at least 20 times, she rewinds it to the part where Elsa sings “Let it go” over and over and over again. She watches it on Youtube time and time again. It is #5 on the CD so everytime she gets in the car she wants to listen to#5. You know how she is, right now it’s all about Frozen. So at work I keep hearing Jeff sing “Let it Go”. So I went home one night and told Abby guess what song Jeff was singing at work today? She said give me a hint. So I said it is your favorite song. And she replied,,,,Called to Serve? hahahaha

Bahaha I have the cutest little sister ever!! Tell her I can’t wait to learn let it go so we can sing it together!!

Shout out to Elder Sargent´s mom!! He told me today that she blog stalks me!! Haha I love it!

Q. How many times have you had to speak or sing in church?

A. In church only 3 times.

Dear Alyssa, I am really really glad that you get along with all your companions. Did you know I have a cough and I don't feel very good so I'm sorry I can’t tell you more because I don't feel very good. I can't go to school tomorrow because I am sick and it's my turn to be the special helper. But mom called Mrs. King to see if I can be the special helper a different day. I do like primary, I like to sing songs. Guess what I am going to be for Halloween? It is the same as what my birthday will be. Elsa. Did you like Frozen? Alyssa, did you know that I haven’t been watching Mickey Mouse for a long time but now I begin to watch Mickey Mouse more. I miss you. I love you more than most. Love, Abby your sister

Dear Abby, I am sorry you have a cough, please feel better!! I didn’t get to watch frozen... I have to wait until it gets here in the package you sent me. I love you and I can’t wait to sing Let it go with you! I miss you too!! Love Alyssa!!
