Emily Wardle Personal History

 Dearest Lily and Isaac, So. Much. Happened. This. Week Went to a fireside with Steven Sharp Nelson and his wife.  LOVED IT!  He served in Korea, and his son is serving in Korea right now.  I understood how cool that was for him! I was officially released as the Stake Camp Director person.  I loved that calling, but it felt right to be released. Dad and I went on a lovely Fall colors motorcycle ride up the canyon We've been working like crazy on the fifth wheel ripped out all the stained carpet pulled up all the linoleum in the kitchen bought and installed new stick down vinyl in the kitchen and where the carpet was pulled off all the old, peeling vinyl stickers on the exterior Isaac flew out to Japan on Wednesday.  Dad and Emmy and I went to see him off, but he blitzed through security and we missed him. (You could have waited for a minute... I'm pretty sure you knew we were coming).  Joseph missed him too since we were not informed that he wasn't goi...

 Dearest Isaac and Lily, Crazy crazy week... We had a birthday dinner at Nani and Papa's house to celebrate Nani's 81st birthday! Joseph came up for it, and it was great to see him. Dad and I worked on the fifth wheel.  We got the carpet all ripped out that we are going to replace.  No more pink edged carpet from when the Black Cherry exploded one winter or black goo from where mouse traps got overturned!!! I sent Isaac his final MTC package and included little angel charms for each member of his district. Dad and I left on Thursday to go to Lake Powell We drove the waverunners from our camping spot down to Gregory Bridge (Dad wakefoiled under this bridge a few years ago, if you remember) which is exposed for only the second time in my lifetime. There was a big rainstorm while we were there with waterfalls and a double rainbow and everything!  It washed out the end of the little cove where we were camped, and I loved every minute of it! I pulled Dad skiing behind our...

 Dearest Isaac and Lily, It's been a crazy week! I spent a gazillion hours on the paint-by-number that Emmy got me for Christmas, and I FINALLY FINISHED IT!  It looks amazing! Emmy, Hana, and I went to the temple on Wednesday.  We were only a little late - due to my auto-pilot brain missing the exit to go to Hana's apartment.  I had my very first ever organ lesson! There's a group that does group organ lessons every 2 weeks, and I started going! (Lily, I saw Sister Linford's mission plaque in the church where the lesson was! I assume you know her.) We had dinner with Nani, Papa and Chelsie.  I enjoy spending time with my in-laws.  I married into a great family.  Chelsie did tell me that Gabby had a miscarriage (hopefully you knew she was pregnant).  She was about a 1/3 of the way through her pregnancy and is pretty devastated by this.  Please keep her in your prayers. I ran/walked at the gym on Thursday while Dad played racquetball with Shane...
