Hey y'all! Well, not a ton to tell this week. I hope you traveled safe with the cruise, and that Kylie and Garrett were able to make it home safe from Oregon. How fun!
We had a good week out here. I'm getting super excited for the fourth tomorrow! Texans sure do love it. We actually get to walk in the Trophy Club parade tomorrow! We're carrying the opening banner for the parade, and should be in the newspaper, so I'm going to try to get a clipping from a ward member.
... I love these people so much, and that's really why I'm here. To help my brothers and sisters get home. I just also know it's super unhealthy not to acknowledge and handle negative emotions when they arise, because then you can never process them. ... I hope you know how much I love you, and that I really am doing well. How ungrateful and prideful would I be to ignore the innumerable blessings in my life, to complain.
Let's see... what actually happened this week? I found this donut shop that is AMAZING. Haha. Seriously though, it's great. They fill the donuts right there, so you can get whatever filling you want into whatever donut you want.... seriously. Even maple bars. Wow. Anyway, you know how I love raspberry-lemon flavored stuff? Well, I can never decided if I want a raspberry filled donut, or a lemon filled donut - it's a struggle. But today, there was no more conundrum. They said they could fill the same donut with both fillings! J wow. It was sooo good! J
We really didn't have anything else this week. Sorry to keep it so short. I hope you had a wonderful week! I love ya to death!
All my love,
Sister Erika Marks ☀❤☀❤☀
