Hey Mom,
It was great to hear from you. Lewisville is about an hour away from Fort Worth. Thankyou for letting the ward know. I was bummed about the Temple, but like you said the lord knew why I needed to attend the temple as much as possible before I left and I'm grateful for that. I will let you know if i need anything. Thanks. I am glad to hear that the wedding plans are going great. I know that the wedding will be great. I am glad to hear that Pilchers wedding went well and the colors were awesome. Good pick in colors I must say. I love those colors. That would be so much fun if you are able to take the kids to Wild Waves. I know that they would love it. I miss them so much and tell them that I love them. I cant wait to get the letter from dad and read his talk. I heard that it went really well from Brother Bingham; they loved it. I heard from Tiffany and started crying. I love her so much and am proud of her in all that she does and that she is going to be a wonderful wife. She is a wonderful daughter of God.
I wanted to tell you about something that happened this week. On monday we came home from doing things and saw everyone standing outside in our appartment complex and wondered what happened. So come to find out one of the water pipes in the attic broke and set off the fire sprinklers and alarms and affected 6 apartments. We were one of them. Flooded our kitchen, bathroom, and part of livingroom. So they moved us to another apartment for the week while they fix things. on Tuesday we went to go grab things and saw that part of our ceiling fell because it was too wet and so they have been working on our apartment since then and still working on it today. Crazy. We felt blessed because it could have been alot worse, but the Lord was watching over us. Like you said if we stand by our Heavenly Father we are blessed and i truely saw that this week during all of this. Besides this happening our week has been good in finding more people to teach and working towards baptism with a couple of investigators. I love this gospel with all my heart and my testimony increases everyday and i continue to study and learn more of the teachings. I love you guys so much and know that i pray and think about you guys all the time. I can feel that the gospel has blessed our family so much and love you lots!!! Hope to hear from you soon.
Love,
Sister Bickley
