Email Address

Heather wanted me to post her email address so everyone can write her. She can't reply via email, but if you give her your physical address she can get snail mail back to you! I know she'd love to hear from everyone, so feel free to send her a quick hello! Her email is: hmburton@myldsmail.net

Lots o' photos!














Here is the first glimpse into life in Long Island. Like I said, Heather is living in a garage in Islip. Long Island was hit this weekend with low temperatures and snow, but it sounds like everything is well with Sister Burton.

One month down...






Here are some pictures that I stole from other people's blogs. The first is of all the missionaries in Heather's district. There are six sisters serving in the Bay Shore area and her district is the biggest in the entire mission. The missionary to the left of Heather is Sister Frodsham, Heather's companion. She is from SLC and Heather said they get along pretty well. The second picture is Heather with the Mission President and his wife.

There are more pictures at http://www.depaulamission.blogspot.com/. This is the blog of a missionary couple serving in Heather's area. They do a great job at keeping it up-to-date with photos and mission info. There's also info at http://www.burtons57.blogspot.com/. This is Heather's dad's blog.

As for Heather, she said in her last letter that she was living in the 'ghetto' and things can be a little crazy. It sounds like she has had some interesting experiences...She ate ox tail at a member's home last weekend. She also said the city is dirty and everyone knows she is a country girl because of her big hair. One person even said she looked like Loretta Lynn. So funny...

Anyway, I should be hearing from her again soon and will post shortly! -H
