| Sister Colvin with President and Sister Anderson |
Okay, so my flight here was EARLY. We reported to the travel office at TWO THIRTY A.M. (I'm on 2 hours of sleep...), were bussed the 1hr to SLC, we were able to call our parents in the airport (*literally* the best thing ever), and then I flew to Denver, had a 1 1/2 hour layover, then flew here! Luckily it's P-day, so hopefully I can take a power nap or something.
Man. I made it to South Dakota! There are lottttsss of cows, fields, and wide open spaces. I think I'll get along just fine here! I saw a small herd of horses as we drove in, and just about peed myself. SO. MANY. ANIMALS. It's awesome. I'm running on about 2 hours of sleep.....hopefully I don't say anything dumb when I meet my mission president at lunch! The sister training leaders picked me up from the Rapid City airport--think 70s carpet, tile walls, and Parks & Rec-esque wall murals. It's tiny. There appears to be very few people that actually live in South Dakota haha!
I just found out that I'm being put in a trio...............noooooooooooo. Thank heavens the MTC helped prepare me for that one! (Though it'll be hard to top Sister G and Sister T :'[ ) Trios are hard! There are so many feeeelliiinnggs, and girls (er, sisters) just want to talk about their feeeeeelings. I'm sure it will be a growing experience.
I love you all so, so much. Thank you for your love, kind words, prayer, and support. It certainly is felt on this end! Please please please write letters! I love getting them a lot! Btw--my address is the mission home address:
South Dakota Rapid City Mission
2525 W Main, Suite 311
Rapid City, SD 57702
45 seconds! Bye! Love you! Love this church!
Com amor,
Sister Colvin
PS. My very nice mission president, President Anderson, is the brother-in-law of our friend and colleague of Kyle's, Dr. Reid R.
