Today was one of those days that I just wanted to scream for joy! Have you ever felt that way? We are so blessed to have the gospel of Jesus Christ in our lives!
Yesterday was an amazing day. Our good friends and neighbors, Jen and Jason (and their 2 boys Alex and Zach) came to church with us! We were praying hard that they would feel the spirit there at church. They did, and they loved it! The boys loved it. Jen is so excited about learning more, about her boys being able to serve missions, about the temple, and about the church. They are so amazing, and we are so excited about what the gospel will bring to their family! Plus, we are excited that we'll be able to see them all the time now! Their boys are both starting in Scouts this week, and Jen is going to attend the stake Relief Society service project and broadcast with me on Saturday. Next Monday we are planning on having Family Home Evening together with the missionaries teaching our lesson. It's awesome!
Do we truly realize what we have? We have a peace and joy that only the Savior and his gospel can bring. We have the truth! Could you imagine not knowing where you came from, why you are here, or what the true purpose of life is? I will be eternally grateful for the missionaries who knocked on my parents' door 36 years ago and brought them the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. My life has been blessed in so many ways from this amazing gift!

That is SO great Steph!! There isn't much that can top that feeling. We will keep their family in our prayers.
Ps...I miss you:(
They seemed like such neat people. I loved getting to meet them at church and hope to see them there again. Knowing what the gospel has already brought to our lives, it makes me excited for others who are investigating. :-)
