peach plumb pear


Sometimes it's the simple gestures that bring a lot of happiness.
My visiting teaching companion, Andrea, and I brought this cute fruit basket over to Sherry's house tonight. I contributed the peach and Andrea had the ribbons. We tied them on and then traipsed across the quad to Sherry's apartment. She invited us in and we talked for a good while. Guys, I love socializing in small groups. Wonderful things happen. Sherry was baptized last December and she gave her first talk in church last Sunday. Her testimony is SO touching and heartfelt. As we talked, Sherry asked us if we could go with her tomorrow morning to pick up a friend of hers who's interested in the church.
And we agreed.
(By the way, her friend's name is Liao Yi Ni--and you say it like Ee Lee, which means something like "the color of the surface of the water." a;ljfddlkjafdas Gorgeous, right? My first name means "limestone." Ugh.)

I don't know what'll happen tomorrow, but I'm quite excited to find out!
I have butterflies in my stomach but tomorrow couldn't come faster.
:]

So here's a music video.
Emily showed me this when we were freshmen.
And we burst into giggles every time we listened to it.
*Shudder*

I fail to see the pear in said basket but that's okay because I don't like pears anyway :P

That is a beautiful name :)
