Sister Jacobson is now in Denton, Texas. She and her trainor, Sister Savage of West Jordan Utah, were white-washed into the area. They're doing a lot of tracting and starting from scratch. Jackie's doing well and is still in good spirit. Here are a few pictures of her MTC stay. I'll post more once she send me another CD of them.

While Jackie is Gone

Hello to all of Jackie's blog followers. This is Jackie's sister and beholder of the Jovial Jackie Blog for the next year and a half. I promised my little sister I'd update this every now and then while she's down in Texas.

The latest news:

Jackie, uh, I mean Hermana Jacobson went into the MTC in Provo on December 30th. Everything has been well for her at this point. She has two companions and her Spanish is improving every day.

Sorry there are no pictures at this point but I promise to post them as she sends them to me.

Thanks for following!

Nothing Better to do

Not too long ago was one of my roommate's birthday. So when she was at work my other roommates+Rob went to the dollar store to get some presents. We saw these funny hats and just had to get some pictures taken!I think we were just supposed to make funny faces.

We are all oh so happy!

Waxing

Last year I went to with Ginger for my very first wax, but because I was on accutane they wouldn't let me do it. Now, I've been off of that nasty drug for a few months. I get to be in the sun and do so much more. The best part of the drug is that I now have pretty skin. :D
When I got done with taking pictures my roommate asked if I wanted to try waxing. Of course I did! It wasn't that painful, I actually love the results.

One, two, THREE!

All done.

Fun Photos

It's been raining up in Rexburg for the past few weeks like crazy! I couldn't help but take out my camera and snap a few shots. Enjoy! This is the favorite picture I took that day.

Our tennis courts were flooded for a while.

And of course Rexburg wouldn't be Rexburg with out the temple.

Elder Eyring

Up here at BYU-Idaho we have devotionals every Tuesday. This semester we had the opportunity to have Elder Eyring come up and speak with us. It was so COOL! Nah, cool isn't the right word, it was amazing. (Don't tell mom and dad) I skipped my ballroom class to stand in line so I could get a half way decent seat. Too bad it wasn't the best, but hey I was able to here from a prophet of God, right here at my University. I never did get to shake hands with him, but I was able to get some okay pictures. Enjoy.
If you look to the very far left, that is Elder Eyring's son. Ginger and I had him as our stake president last year.

Can you see how packed it was in the Hart? All the way up to the very top.

Thank you Elder Eyring for coming to BYU-Idaho.
