Lydia is doing really well. She had a nap today. She is mixing well with everyone. She seems happy. We counted vitamins in 30s and put them in baggies with instructions to give to parents of children.
We had fried chicken fresh fruit for lunch. It is beautiful here.
We rode in a tuktuk. Lydia can explain it to you. It's been a full day.

Taking Off
I took off at about 10:00 at night in coach. It's really crammed and I have a headache but I'm alright. I miss my mom and I know she misses me to but I'm in good hands. Sarah will be happy I'm gone so she can have a chance to be an only child, I have already had my turn when she was at girls camp. But I know she will miss me.
It feels really weird to be on a plane while it's taking off but it's really fun I got to watch it take off, it's been so long I don't remember the feeling. Looking out the window all I see is darkness, clouds, and the moon which is a full moon on Friday the 13th which only happens every 25 years or so. I fly on delta airlines the whole way there and the whole way back except on 4 different planes so if I leave one thing on here I will never see it again.
Lydia and Her Grandma Kathi and the rest of the crew arrived in Guatemala safely this Morning at 7:00 Utah Time which was about 6:00 am there. She was doing great!

| When we dropped of Lydia, we ran into our Neighbor Brianna Hawks, who is also going to Guatemala on a humanitarian mission with a different group. How lucky I am that my little girls is surrounded by so many wonderful mothers while she is serving. |

Getting There
Today which is the 13th of June 2014,at 8:00 tonight I will get on a plane and fly to L.A, then fly from L.A to Guatemala City. Then I get on a bus for 3 hours, it's actually pretty cool because my cousin is serving his mission in Guatemala, he baptized a man who is our bus driver.
I am really nervous to leave my family for this long. Alone with people I barley know. But I get to go with my grandma, Corrine who is my friend's mom, Elaine who is Corrine's friend, and Barbra who is Corrine's mom. I know it will be so fun and awesome. I will never forget this trip because I will get to see how people in poverty live and I get to help them, and it's my first trip out if the country.
This morning my dad gave me a blessing and knowing what the lord said I know I will be safe.
