Happy Birthday Allison

Allison Dame

             I just love Allison.  She is one of the sweetest girls I know…it has been so much fun to watch her grow up. I realized today that  Allison was born on a very special day…The Official Seven Eleven Day…so the world celebrates with her by receiving free Slurpees!!!

            Allison is attending Westminster College full time where she is majoring in nursing.  She also works 5 days a week at Credit Union One as a teller.   

            Allison's favorite  foods are Fettuccini Alfredo and anything with Chicken in it.

Her favorite dessert is Cheesecake and her favorite candy…Peanut Butter M & Ms.  She loves eating at the Olive Garden and Noodles and Company.

            Allison's favorite books are "The Twilight Series", "Of Mice and Men" and "To Kill a Mocking Bird"…her favorite Movie is "Pride and Prejudice: and her favorite TV shows are "The Big Bang Theory", "Grey's Anatomy" and "The Office". 

            Allison's favorite musical groups are "The Fray", Litehouse: and "Snow Patrol" and her favorite song is "All Inn" by Lithouse.   

            She also enjoys golfing, reading, singing, yoga, volleyball, softball, watching movies, camping and spending time with her family.  I would have to say that Allison is one busy girl with a lot of ambition…which says that she will be a big success in life. 

            Everyone loves Allison which is evident by the things our YSA Sunday School Class had to say about her. 

            "She always has a smile on her face."

            "She is so nice and always treats everyone like a friend."

            "A great example and is strong with the spirit."

            "AWESOME!"

            "Happy Birthday Alli!  Jazz Season is in 4 months! Be Ready!  Hope you have a great day."

            "Allis is just a doll.  She is super pretty and nice.  She has a wonderful light about her."

            "She is Smiley."

            "Allison always has a contribution to share in our class."

            "She is so cute and fun…I just love her."

            "Allison is dedicated…She is always there and always doing what is right.

            "Allison is a great example.  I hope I can be like her."

            Allison is a great girl and a wonderful example to all of us.  I have never seen her been anything but positive.  We Love you Alli!!!

Happy Birthday!

           

Happy Birthday Bjorn

Bjorn Jones

            Bjorn is finally nineteen and is ready to leave on his mission.  He has been called to the Peru Piura Mission and leaves on August 24.  How lucky we are to have him in our Young Single Adults for a short time before he leaves.  Since graduating from Hillcrest High School he has been away at school at BYU and in Mexico.  He returned to out home ward in the spring and has been one of the teachers in our YSA Sunday School Class since he returned.  I might add that he is an excellent teacher…we are truly going to miss him when he leaves on his mission…None the less we wish him all the luck in the world.  We know he will be a great Missionary.

            Bjorn loves Pasta, Ice Cream and 3 Musketeers.  His favorite place to eat is at the Olive Garden.  Bjorn apparently loves and enjoys most anything, because he did not give many specifics on our YSA Survey…other than he likes board games and good stuff…A man of many words…

Our YSA class did have a few things to say about him however.  Here are their thoughts on Bjorn:

            "Bjorn has an Epic Beard!!!"

            "Bjorn is such a nice guy.  I love his lessons and he is always so friendly."

            "The Best Guy Eve4r!  He is very orange."

            "FANTASTIC!"

            "Bjorn is a lot of fun.  He is one of the best friends I have ever had."

            "Bjorn is awesome."

            "Bjorn is one of the coolest people I have ever met.  He is so nice to everyone and he it always upbeat and positive."

            "Happy Birthday Bjorn!  We need to play some ball ASAP!  Hope you have a Great Day!"

            "Bjorn is an absolute sweetheart.  He is super funny and has the ability to make anyone laugh."

           
            Bjorn truly is a great guy.  He is one of the neatest kids I know.  He is always respectful and makes everyone feel like they are an important part of the group.  He has been a fantastic teacher and is going to make a really great missionary.  All of our lives are better by having known him.  Good luck teaching the gospel in Peru …We love you!

Happy Birthday!
