June 10, 2009 - Bump Day!!

Bump Day

Bump Day means six months have gone,
Some have been short and some very long,
The road has been Bumpy, but you have trudged on.
You've worked very hard not to go wrong,
The Spirit whispers, "You're where you belong."

"Me and my new companion, Elder Swenson"

My new companion Elder Sean Gabriel Swenson from Salt Lake City, Utah
