babycakes

sister ricchio got a little package in the mail!

yummy muffins

she just loves these babycakes muffins.

the most recent update on sister ricchio is that she still does not have her visa. there has been no word as to when or if she will be sent to brazil.

here is an excerpt from her most recent letter:

"This Sunday we have 2 baptisms back to back in between general conference and im so excited! I began teaching both michelle and jeremy since i got here and they have progressed soooo much. jeremy actually bore his testimony in sacrament meeting! it was so cool and a wave of emotion hit me because he has totally changed his life! that's the beauty of missionary work! you come out to change lives and in reality we the missionaries are just a small part of their conversion. things are still moving along and we are working hard everyday."
