Returning to the Motherland

I am heading back to CANADA! I am so excited! I have not visited my mission since I returned 6.5 years ago. It's been way too long. Oh memory lane...





And yes, it's going to be so grand. It's like returning to the Motherland. Although the U.S is technically my "motherland" there is something about Canada that makes me tear up. Of course, my time in Canada was a time that I spent serving the Lord for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. (See Mormon.org). This experience changed my life for the better. My understanding of God, my relationship with Christ, an enhanced desire to serve, and the overwhelming love that I felt for so many strangers as I walked the streets of Ontario. No words can describe how much I loved my mission.

In addition to returning to beloved Ontario, I am also going to MONTREAL and QUEBEC CITY! Can you tell how excited I am?!?

Montreal!

Quebec City
The cool thing is I am going by myself, which a few years ago I would never have wanted to do such a thing, but I am so excited to discover these places on my own and have a little adventure. I will definitely be posting about this trip soon, don't you worry.

I love Canada. 
I can't wait to be there again and bask in all of its glory, poutine, mounties, and bagged milk, eh!
