Nancy "Ginger"'s Baptism!!!


So today, one of my roommates, Nancy (but we call her Ginger) was baptized!!! It was wonderful! She is one of the most amazing people I have ever met in my life. She is so kind hearted and sweet! She asked Lauren and I to speak, and believe it or not, neither of us got emotional! I was shocked. I also made the programs... which I must say looked amazing! Our dear friend Matt Noble performed the baptism, which he did in Spanish. That was very special. Especially to Ginger. Lauren, our friend 
Ratimo, and I all pitched in and bought her her very own set of scriptures and a hymn book with her name
 engraved in them! She cried when we gave them to her. It was so sweet! Andrew was able to make it... which was amazing! He drove all the way from Provo to be here. He is so sweet!!! Ginger has taught me a lot of wonderful things in the short time I have known her since coming to college. She is only 20 years old and already a senior in college! Can you believe it?! And she is a psychology major at that. We all went out to dinner to Chili's afterwards to celebrate. We told our waitress that it was Ginger's birthday... so she got a free dessert! It was such a wonderful day. I'm very grateful that I got paired with such good roommates. I know a lot of people here who got roommates that are complete turds.
