Tuesday
night went to the airport and left at midnight. We arrived in New York at about 6, and we did not get
much sleep on the plane. We then got picked up by a guy named chucky who is
this big half Irish half Indian guy who was a pretty crazy driver (Typical for
New York) He was not a member, but supposed any time one of the Apostles or any
one like that come to New York he picks them up, so that is pretty cool. We
drove to the Manhattan Temple/ Church and met with a senior couple. He took us
to the second floor and took us to a back room so we couple sleep for an hour
or so. That was really nice! Then we got up and walked to the Sub way and got
to go to Grand Central station! That was pretty cool! We took the subway to the
consulate, and we got there turned in some paper work got fingered printed
signed something a left. Talk about a long trip for something so small. We then
got picked up by Chucky and went to the airport and then flew home at 3:30 or
so. We then got back to the MTC by about 10:45. So it was a really long day.
New York was crazy thought! We were not even there for the worst time of the
da, but everyone was going 100 MPR all of the time. It was crazy and to tell
you the truth I got a little shell-shocked! I was actually really excited to be
back in the MTC. The New York trip really helped me to appreciate the MTC more!
Thank you
for fasting for me! It really means a lot! Thank you so much!
...We get
$6 on a card every Wednesday so I have been trying to save up so I do not have
to use my debit card. …I love hearing about all the stuff with
Braden! It does remind me when Josh and Jalin were dating that is a lot of fun!
I would definitely say the one in the green!! That is who I am rooting for!! I love you so much!!! Mom! Elder Tilley
Braden-Hey man I heard you were sick! Are you doing better now? I hope you
are doing better. So I remember before I left that you said that the Lord will
show me my weaknesses and He definitely has. It has been crazy to see how much
I have learned in the past six weeks and how much I do not know. It has been
really hard for me lately because I feel like I have really been shown my weaknesses, and because of
this I feel like I am almost worthless and that I am not the confident/ happy
self I normally am because I have all these weaknesses. I do not know if you
kind of went through something like that. Yesterday I felt the Spirit a lot
though and I felt a little bit more confident about myself, so that was
good. I love you so much man! Keep it up with the ladies!! Remember to keep giving me the play by play action. Remember it
took Josh awhile to convince Jalin to like him! Haha just
kidding…kind of. Love you man keep up the great work! Elder Tilley
…So there was
an Elder here named Elder Tappen who left to Brazil a week or maybe two ago and
one of the Elders here got an email from him that said his trainer in the
Mission field knows me and his name is Tanner
Peterson! Pretty crazy!! Anyways I will get back on in a little bit and see
if there are any replys.
… I think I
am here at the MTC the best time ever because one we got to here Elder Holland and Elder Oaks, then we
are here for Conference, then we are here for Easter, which at the MTC is
similar to Christmas except it is not as sad to be here, and a General
Authority is going to come and we are going to have the Sacrament with him with
the entire MTC also we get to sing in the Choir. I think I am in the MTC at the
best time! I am not sure if anyone else is in the Choir I know or not. I am not
sure…. Yeah it is so cool that I get to sing in Conference on your Birthday
hopefully you will be able to see me! That would be fun!!
