Hi guys!
This is my last P-day in the MTC!!! But this should be my e-mail address in the field too! But write me letters too. I don't have much time here on e-mail right now so I can't say much but I will have more time when I am in the field. I am doing great. I really love it. It is a great experience and I love the sisters in my district. It is very different and I am still adjusting but it's great. The food here really does make you feel gross inside! I sometimes get aweful stomach cramps but I leave on tuesday morning at 6 and have to report a 3. Ah I am so psyched to GO!!!!! I was made coordinating sister for my zone the first sunday I was here. yeah awesome! Really though it is all right just more pressure but I do all right at it. I am good at helping the new sisters feel more comfrotable and less freaked out. But I am replaced on sunday. It helps having quite a few people here that I know. From my ward at home. Or from school. My cousin who I was baptized with got here a week ago that is cool.
I am tired of practicing and role playing and ready to do the real thing. On tuesday we have devotionals and I sing in the choir of course and Elder Quintin L. Cook from the Quarum of the Twelve Apostles came and spoke to us. I am so lucky! It was amazing he spoke just to us and spoke of how the people are prepared and humbled in these hard times to receive the fullness of the gospel and I am ready to do it! I am so lucky to be here. I know I sound super churchy but this place does it to you. With all the missionaries here just gospel all the time. It is just the greatest feeling ever!
I am super grateful for all of you and hope to talk to you again soon!
Sister Amy Broadhead
P.S. probably if you are going to write me send any letters to Arkansas now.

LOVE

Amy's out a-servin'! :)

Hello! This is Jess Nielsen-Beach, and I have officially taken over Amy's blog! :) Alishia will help contribute with any pictures/info she wants to, so it's going to be a team effort.

Amy was set apart on Tuesday, March 2. It was a beautiful occasion and VERY difficult to say goodbye. :( She is now in the MTC, and if anyone would like to write to her, her address is:

Sister Amy Elise Broadhead
Arkansas Little Rock Mission
Provo Missionary Training Center
2005 N. 900 E.
Provo, UT 84064

After March 23, her new address will be:

Sister Amy Elise Broadhead
Arkansas Little Rock Mission
905 Kie...rre Dr. North

Yeah, she wrote the "..." and the "Dr. North." It looks a bit strange to me, but I'm sure it's right. :)

Ok, well I have not written anything in a REALLY long time so here goes. I moved back down to Utah Valley to pretty much get ready for my mission. I got my mission call to The Arkansas, Little Rock Mission. I leave March 3rd, English speaking. Exactly two months from today. I have quite a bit to do still before I go. Jess said she would keep up this blog for my mission.

Christmas was pretty great! We had Christmas night and most of the rest day at my mothers house. I didn't ask for much because of my mission and she suprised me with a brand new digital camera and 8 gig memory card for my mission. And a bunch of jewelry supplies which I really enjoy doing! And we had Christmas dinner. Then at my dad's we went and saw Sherlock Holmes that night which was christmas night there again. I LOVE SHERLOCK HOLMES! I have read like every story of his ever!!! I was SO excited!!!! It was FANTASTIC! And I just mostly got mission stuff at my dad's. Jewelry, shoes, a new coat. All around good.

Jimmy coming home was great. Being with everyone again. And my girl friends and I practiced the song for my farewelll. It will be so great!

I died my hair darker. While Leash was down we just chilled and did what we do best. Just took pictures. It is always funny. We always intend on watching a movie but end up just sitting on her bed talking and taking pictures. And we got Jamba.

That's all for now. Love you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Teeth and Back Home

I have been coming back and forth down here for a couple months now from Logan to home. To get my teeth done and my stupid leg muscles fixed. Well I lost my job in Logan and have relocated back to Spanish Fork/Salem until I leave for my mission. It will help to get ready for my mission and I missed it but I will miss my friends up in Logan! I got my new teeth. I need to get the color adjusted just a bit. My natural teeth are just a bit whiter.

I also got a new phone that I really like. It has all the things fixed I did not like about my other phone. Its orange and slides to a keyboard. ah I love it!

New Home!

This weekend has been just super... awesome. Sigh. I am just eeeeeeee. So I had a check up with my orthodontic surgeon to see if my teeth were ready to go on (they should be, it has been over two years and it only is supposed to take six months). Well since I had to drive down from Logan just for the appointment he decided to just go ahead with the next step. Which is pretty much take out the gums between the posts in my bones and where the tooth will go and stick on these metal cap things that look awful!!! Uh so that was freaking sucky!!!! I didn't have any drugs to take so it hit me about twenty minutes after I left for the pain to hit and I rushed to Walmart and bought the first pain killers I could find and took as many as would make it go away.
I had to drive right back to Logan to move. So in super bad pain I drove 2 1/2 hours back when I was planning on staying down to see family and friends but couldn't. UH stupid apartments. So I had to be out by the next day and I felt like garbage. I got moved in to my new place and CRASHED! Uh rant rant rant!!! At least I get my new teeth on in a few weeks. Silver lining. Ten years of Orthodontic crap final done.
Well I do like my new apartment. It is being remodled right now but it is fine. I just can't help because I work all the time. I am glad to be out of apartments and I like the girl who owns the house. That is partly why I moved in. And I am moving in the my old roommate. It will just be the two of us in this cozy little place. This is forever long but I have not written in a while so it is all right.

Fun Friday Night and Good Satuday too.

So on Friday night, I hung out with my friend Lexi Wright and her roommates. We went to dinner at this really good Italian place in Smithfield. I love that place. Then we went to 17 again. Way funnier than I thought it would be. Then we went to Tummy Yummies. This new awesome frozen yogurt place here in Logan. We then decided to go ice blocking down old main hill. Oh my gosh, it was super fun. I slid off and hit my but like 10 times. It was super fun though. Bad thing, I left my keys at work and it was closed when I came back to campus for my car. So my friend drove me home and I walked to work. It was really nice outside but I had to walk up old main again after I did about ten times the night before. Then I went with Alishia's roommate Melissa and some guys from their ward and got Grist Mill sandwich's (which are my favorite) and went a little up the canyon to eat them at first dam. We played Frisbee and I accidentally threw it in the river. Yeah Adam went in to get it. Poor guy. It was freezing! I haven't played for a very long time. We went to Tummy Yummies again. Which is cool. I like that place. Then went back and watched Marley and Me with Melissa, Alishia, (her boyfriend) Casey, and Me. It was fun. Good times. I am excited for the summer. Leash and Melissa are moving to the complex I live in and am staying for the summer. It will be a blast.

Excited for spring break!

Last night was fun. We basically just chilled. It was fun. Some games and talking. We played a sweet prank. Sweet prank hehehe. Leash and I did it last year too but this year was way more fun. Leash got the egg dye tablets for dying easter eggs and covered them in sugar and blended them in with other candy. We tell people it is candy from Canada. And people would eat them like they were other candy. It dyed their teeth and mouth. It's not harmful but really funny. Pretty much everyone figures it out and spits it out. ahahahahahahahaah Oh gosh. Good times. We got her two roommates and a couples guys at the party. It was pretty great.
