Hey Guys,

I’ve been going through the myldsmissionary and myldsdirect websites and have been making huge changes!  Most of the products prices have been reduced, and you will find some of the best deals for LDS gifts and merchandise on our websites! There are a bunch of really pretty, and nice CTR rings that I reccomend you check out.  A lot of cool things to send your missionary as well, like fun stationary you can send their letters on.  Also we’ve added a bunch of new products, and there’s going to be more! Come visit the sites!

For those of you who have been on a trek for your stake, you may have noticed these quirks from a few of the other trekkers in your “family”

10. Calling “baby duty” to get out of pushing the hand cart

9.  Dishing up seconds and thirds for yourself when you had “baby duty”

8.  One upping everybody else’s problems

7.  Resting on the back of the handcart instead of pushing it

6.  Claiming the under-the-shelter spots every night

5.  Singing loudly till 3 in the morning

4.  Sitting in a pile of ants

3.  Getting bitten by the ants

2.  Getting dehydrated and throwing up

And the number one thing NOT to do on trek

1.  Don’t Stalk the other trekkers

Comment on some funny/annoying things that happened on your trek!

A few months ago on my senior spring break I went to arizona to visit my sister.  Livivng in a very LDS centered part of the state it wasn’t very surprising when the two girls doing our pedicures were LDS.  I told them about how I was excited to graduate and go to college.  They warned me to move to the singles ward immediately after graduation to avoid a nursery calling, apparently the young women are hunted down.  My sister and I laughed, and thought nothing of it.  About a month before I graduated I found myself sitting in a room with a member of the bishopric accepting a call to serve as nursery helper.  I have now been in there about two months.  It’s not that bad, the kids are cute (when they’re not throwing toys, hitting eachother, and wailing), I get to eat the snack that smiles back, and I’ve made some little friends in there.  I have one problem, a three, almost four, year old boy.  They should move up to sunbeams as soon as their birthday comes, not at the new year.  He is full of energy, loud, doesn’t listen, and wrestles the other children.  I’m still gonna be in there anoter two months, any advice out there?
