My Bascom Family!! 6/26/2012

Hello!

I'm sorry you haven't really heard from me in a while. It's been kind of crazy here with everything that's going on. I met my new Mission President. He is really amazing! He is a great guy, and his wife his going to have a baby this week or next their seventh child and their sixth boy.

I am going to see a cardiologist on Friday if you haven't heard. My departure date has been pushed back until July tenth. Maybe post that on the blog.

Everyone in my district left this morning at 5:00. I wish I had gone with them. It's frustrating because I have no idea what's going on with my heart, and now I'm alone floating until they figure out what to do with me. I'm being put into a new district and another tripanionship. I'll just chill there until I'm cleared to leave. I hope that day comes soon.

I would really love to here from you, and tell the boys happy birthday from me. I was going to send them cards, but I don't have much time here. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Please write back and let me know how things are going.

A random story for the blog:

The other day while I was on the temple walk with my district I got punched in the face by an Elder on accident. It was really funny, I'm not hurt but I had to bend my glasses back into place so they would fit on my face right.

I teased him until he left today. It was great.

Another story, maybe not for the blog but I think it's funny. [I'm putting it in, anyway.]

We were sitting in the classroom doing personal study, and one of my elders said, "Dang it, worst words ever!"

I responded, "What are the worst words ever?"

He said reading from the scriptures: "And now, I Nephi, write more of the words of Isaiah..."

I thought it was hilarious!!!

Oh, and L. Tom Perry is speaking today at the devotional. I'm kind of stoked for it. I've also seen a handful of the Apostles walking around because of the new mission president seminar. It has been kind of fun trying to spot them.

One last time: I love you all! Have a most wonderful day my family! I miss you lots!

Forever,

Sister Christopherson

[I'm not sure when this picture was taken, but this e-mail talks about Elders, so I decided to throw it in.]
So, one day my companions & I (1st District) decided we were going to post-it note our classroom w/ things we loved about our Elders. I forgot to print pictures off, but it was fun... :)
A few days later when we came into the room Elder ---- had left us a note with some goodies to fill in the blank.
It was a good moment so we took a picture. :)
Loved it!
