(Picture from Coltons first city in Italy. Isn't it amazing? Shooooot I wanna be there!!)Yes, I know how my posts have made things appear. It seems that I no longer think about, care for, write, nor miss my missionary. Whatever. I totally do. All the guys I have been talking about are just fun and games that help me distract my mind. Sooooo. How is Colton doing? AMAZING! He's been gone for 7 1/2 months! I'm sure it seems like time's flying for everyone, but it's NOT for me. It's been a slow 7 1/2 months. However, slowly but surely it's getting to the one year mark. WAHOO! Right now he's serving in Mestre... which is about a 10 minute or so bus ride to VENICE! I'm pretty much insanely jealous of him. I'd love so much to be in Italy!
(This is by far one of my favorite pictures that he's sent me. What an amazing place to be!!)Every week I get both an e-mail and a letter from him (he really really REALLY doesn't want me to forget about him... haha). Every e-mail/letter I get I can tell that his testimony is growing by the day. It's amazing. For those of you who knew Colton when we started dating... you know what a big change that is for him. He grew and changed so much in the 1 1/2 years that we dated before he left, and the mission is only helping him out more. It's amazing. Probably the best thing to ever happen to him.
Ok, so Coltons last companion spent a LOT of time on the internet on p-days. Colton would get bored. So, he took a picture that I had sent him (I was kissing Barney in the original...) and put it together with a picture of himself... to sort of make it look like I was going to kiss his cheek. (It's not very good because it was with paint and not photoshop). I think it's hilarious. hahaha
Ok, so as you can all see... I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN ABOUT COLTON! He's doing amazing and loving every second of his mission. He keeps telling me that time is flying by for him. I love that, because it means that he's focusing and working hard :)

That's great to see a picture of your future fiance' finally..or I mean missionary boy :)But we should expect this right? I'm not fully in the loop here but it's just a guess! It's great that he's grown in the gospel more! My friend served in Italy and she said it was a very humbling experience with the great people over there. So that is great for him!
Pretty pictures. I want to visit Italy now. And that last picture is quite funny. I'm glad he's doing so well.
