| President & Sister Ashton and Family with incoming missionaries 4/9/13 Houston Texas South Mission |

Dear Family!
Well, I made
it to Houston safely! We flew from SLC to Dallas, where I got to talk to mom
and dad. Then we had a VERY short flight from Dallas to Houston. Seriously, as
soon as we got up to cruising speeds then we were descending again.
We landed in
Houston, got off the plane, and headed to the baggage claim where we met
President and Sister Ashton. I absolutely love them already! We all got our
luggage and loaded it into a trailer. They handed us sack lunches and we loaded
into the car. We went to a church building in the mission and had a quick
devotional then they sent us out “running” with some of the missionaries.
Basically running is going out and doing OYM (Open Your Mouth). So we all just
spread out from the church and contacted as many people as possible. It was
awesome to have a real teaching experience so soon.
Then we went
to the mission home. President and Sister Ashton have a BEAUTIFUL home! They
are so sweet! They have seven kids that we will meet later.
It’s 5:00 pm
and I’m already exhausted. It is HOT and HUMID here. Goodbye cardigans! I am so
happy and I love it here. I’ll meet my trainer tomorrow! Hopefully she is
GREAT! I love you all! I’ll try to send pictures on P-day on Monday! Write me
emails!
All my love,
Sister Baker
