What not to wear to church. Special addition at Texas Thrift.

Dearest Holladay, 

Well Hello!

I just love Diana so much! this week we made a lot of progress... so the dilemmas are: 1. She wants to get married to the guy she lives with but he has to get divorced to his ex wife in Mexico. So you know me... i get a lawyer on the phone (don't ask me how I found her number) and we are talking and she says it will be 1,000 dollars and 60 days to get the divorce to go through! I DON'T HAVE TIME OR MONEY LIKE THAT LADY!!! so if you guys know any lawyers for cheaper hook Diana up.  i seriously hate divorces with all my heart! they are a pain in the rear end! I just want them to get married!!!!
(ps mom it seriously made Diana's whole life that you texted her on her birthday. We went out to dinner with her and she was just thanking and thanking and thanking you. She doesn't have a mom here so she really appreciated it)

Her second concern was church.. and she couldn't have had easier concerns to resolve. first she said she didn't have a skirt she felt comfortable to wear to church and second she said was scared where she would sit at church. BOOOYAAA. These are my kind of concerns Diana! 

Get my fashion sense on and I tell her to meet me at Texas Thrift my absolute favorite store! She meets us there and basically WHAT NOT TO WEAR TO CHURCH WITH HERMANA WAGSTAFF WENT DOWN. I pulled out about 30 skirts that were so cute and explained why I loved them and they were all either too tight, too stretchy, too shiny, too ruffly, too bulky, or long, too short. They couldn't have lines vertical or horizontal because that makes her look fat, and last but not least she said she would rather make a pinata out of that then wear it to church.  But the skirts she was picking were even worse! (i didn't know if i had just been out of the fashion world for so long or what but she was picking some pretty terrible ones) One was about as long as little Williams foot, the other was a bath towel made into a skirt, and the last one she liked was a bedazzled cheetah wrap around. After 30 minutes, I'm like Ok what are we looking for here. And she said she wanted a black and white patterned skirt with a black sweater. Easy peezy lemon squeezy. Thats like asking for a Big Mac at Mcdonalds. SO EASY when you have a mother that taught you some profound lessons at T-J Maxx. YOU GOTTA DIG! And you know what mom- I dug and I dug. I got eye level with those racks of clothing. I made her do some runway walking going down one isle as she was trying them on and the other isle for rapid black skirt finding. It was hilarious. I had about 3 grandmas helping me. They were all these spanish old grandmas just yelling things at her "YOU JUST GOTTA DECIDE!" but all and all we walked out of there with a cute skirt but walked in even better to church on sunday!!! She loved it and had a great experience. 

On thursday after english class we had a church tour. Because hna. k and i have been putting up so many posters and we had about 20 new people come. so we had our bishop come and give them a tour of the church afterwards. I've never heard so many ohhhs and ahhhhs just of seeing the CTR 8 class room. But seriously It was an incredible experience. we ended in front of the baptismal font and had this recent convert bear his testimony of his baptism. all of the people were asking how they could be baptized! It was so cool! I love how simple and beautiful this gospel is!
Well I love you all so much! i hope you have the best valentines day ever! I love you more than Stacy and Clinton love a good pair of high heels.
