Shoulder Surgery

Image
I flew to Vegas to be with Olivia for her shoulder surgery. She was so nervous. She was extremely nervous about the nerve block that she would be getting.  Sugery was April 8th. I couldn't go back with her but they let her keep her phone so that she could keep herself occupied while waiting. She would text me updates.

They've already broken ground on a second temple in Rexburg! It felt so good to be with Lindsey and have her sit next to me in church. I miss her so much.  We spent time with Lindsey and Isaac at their place watching movies, going shopping, and trying some new places to eat.  On April 1st we went to the Rexburg Temple. Isaac had to work so he wasn't able to go. We did baptisms. Afterwards Jaime and the boys were so good to wait so that I could take Lindsey to do initiatory.
