President Gordon B. Hinckley said:

"Today many sisters are being called to serve. Many more are preparing to serve. Not because they aren't married or don't have anything else to do, but they have the desire to serve. One reason that the Lord wants more sisters to serve is because within the next generation He will send His priesthood army to the earth. He wants to send choice spirit children to mothers who have been prepared, properly trained, and taught in the gospel. What better schooling can a mother have than to experience and grow as she serves a mission." --Pres. Gordon B. Hinckley

Elder Giffords "Greenie" package: sent.

I've worked all my life to get these badges!
So, I have been wanting to send Elder Jared Gifford a package while he's in the MTC because once he's in Argentina, he will only be able to have two packages that is for his parents to send to him. I didn't want just any ole' package to be sent to him-I wanted to have a theme to it and all..just me!

So, I thought that since he's a "greenie" in the MTC, that I would send him a GREENIE package. fitting? I think so. ha.
So, everything I bought had a saying to go with it as well as I tried to have most of the item be green-there are a few exceptions, but it's worth it. Here's pics of some of the things I sent to him-it's not everything, but most of it! I hope he likes it. And, the great thing is..that most of these things have memories linked to him and I from when we dated, etc. So it's all so fitting!
I loved this one!

His favorite candy bar-reminds me of when I asked him to answered him back to Homecoming!

For him and Elder Ray!

This window marker was the Devil to my truck! Thanks to J! It's seen better days :)

It fit all too well.

good times.

He'll need floss, esp eating all that foreign food:)

Vicky and Kerry would be so happy I included them! :)


Bummer that they can't chew gum!

Haha, this couldn't be more fitting for him-considering that was always his favorite saying!



Miss that boy!
