Weeks before the Mission

First, I went to the Washington DC Temple to recieve my endowments. I love the temple, beyond words.

Garrett and Valerie came for a week and Garrett stayed for my 21st Birthday!

 That following weekend Connor, Dad and I ran in another Mud Run, the Warrior Dash. Much more fun than the Muddy Buddy, for me.  Just look at all my friends crawling in the sand with me after we had just competed swim-running across the lake! I won but what great buds to push me :)

 For being tough warriors we won medals and Viking hats.
