Called to serve

Dear Sister Houghton,
You are hereby called to serve in the New Jersey Morristown Mission

My brain was spinning a million miles an hour. This is what I was thinking....

"WOW"

"I've never been there"

"I can teach Cake Boss :) " 

"Where the heck is Morrriss-town.... Morristown?... ?"

"IM GOING ON A MISSION" 

"Maybe I'll baptize Snookie...and her baby?"

"I'm SO glad I'm going somewhere in the states"

"Heavenly Father Knows me" 

"Clean water. yay"

"English Speaking!"

"Why am I crying? Oh yeah I always cry"

"I love my family"

"I'm still crying..."

"APRIL 17th??"

"I love this gospel"

"Wow the spirit is so strong"

"This is where I'm supposed to go!"

"I hope I get an accent"

"What if I teach a member of the mofia?"

"I probably shouldn't tell people I like the Yankees"

"I'm still bawling?"



I can’t wait to go serve in New Jersey. Words honestly can’t express the joy and peace that the gospel of Jesus Christ brings me, and now I get to share that with all those New Jersiers. Joisey? I need to get that accent down.

Grandpa and Grandma came up with me to open the call, they came up early so I could be there when it came in the mail. I love them!
It's here! So amazing


Thanks to all of my Family, wonderful neighbors (who are basically family) and my friends/sistas, and everyone I skyped with. Honestly Thanks for ALL the love and support. It means so much to me.

Shout out to Pam Harris for making me the cutest missionary cake ever! She is amazing."

Finals are over. Can I get an AMEN?!!! It was a busy week and now time to enjoy the Christmas spirit. The countdown is on... 9 days! woot woot. 8 days till I see my familia! Aww can't wait

That also means 9 days till Les Miserable comes out!! Nothing would bring me more joy than to see that movie on Christmas day....Hint hint Santa :)

I can't wait to start this new chapter of my life. 120 days and counting!
