Friends

I am grateful for friendships that last for a long time. In the past two months, some of my dearest friends have made a great effort to visit. Each one brings out something different in me, and each one has helped me see my world through new eyes.

First visitor was my brother Andrew, a first-timer to Disney! My favorite moment was an evening by the castle in the Magic Kingdom. With that beautiful backdrop we sat and discussed life's beauties and intricacies. I felt completely rejuvenated.

Visitor number 2 was a former mission companion, Tiffiny. She brings me to life, and we had a kid day, full of face paint, parades, and ice-cream. For over two years now, she has been a devoted friend, always lifting me up and making me feel both stronger and happier.

The next visit was a double dose of Provo friends!

Both Emily and Levi's visit overlapped, and I got to spend

time with them in the warm Florida sun and in the parks. Thanks to them, I have a new appreciation for Star Wars Potato Head accessories and roller coasters at night!

And my most recent visitor was my other brother Ben.

He came during his birthday, and it turns out that March 1st is a perfect day to visit an amusement park:

no people = no lines = infinite rounds on all rides!

Thanks to all of you for your visits!
