The Revival

When I do revive my blog... at least I have, let's see... 5 readers. :) I'm going to seriously consider posting something substantial... someday. I love you all.

Does anyone read this?

This is a test... how many comments can I get? Am I on anyone's feeds still? My last post was well over 2 years ago... should I start this up again? I'm not really a good blogger... maybe I should try? What do you think? Is anyone out there?! :) Let me know.
Love,
Yours Truly

My New Mission Address in California!

Hey everyone!! Here's my current mission address:

Hermana Rachel Biornstad
6835 Laurel Canyon Blvd. #408
North Hollywood, CA 91605

MTC Mailing Address!

If anyone wants to know my MTC address with mailbox number for the next 7 or so weeks here it is:

Sister Rachel Biornstad
MTC Mailbox # 179-0909
San Fernando CA Mission
2005 N 900 E
Provo, UT 84604-1793

Thanks! I appreciate everyone's love and support! I really prefer that you either send me regular mail, or use the dearelder.com site, I don't have enough time to respond to regular emails! Sorry if that is an inconvenience to anyone.....

Mission Addresses!

I know you are all so excited to start writing me, so get out your address book and write this one down!!!

This is the mission office address (send stuff here when I'm in the field until I get out there and tell you otherwise):

Sister Rachel Jenae Biornstad
California San Fernando Mission
23504 Lyons Ave Ste 107
Santa Clarita, CA 91321

NOTE: this is also the address that you will send packages to while I'm on my mission, no matter where I am specifically located.

That's all I have right now... I'm sure I will get you my address in the MTC as soon as I get there.

Also, while I'm in the MTC, I highly recommend you sending me letter through www.dearelder.com. It is an awesome site that mails your letters for you! In the drop down menu on the main page, just find the "Provo MTC - FREE" option... it's the first one listed!
Then you click on "write letter". It will take you to a new page that allows you to fill in your address and mine. For me, pick Hermana (Sister en espanol) then fill in my name and as soon as I get there, I will find out my MTC box # and mission code and then you can fill those in and then my estimated departure date is September 9, 2009.
It should be pretty selfexplanatory, but I thought I'd try to explain for those of you who may have never used it before. It's great really, if you get the letter in before noon, Utah time, they deliver it day of M-F! It would make me oh so happy to get a letter every day! ;)

The actual hooding...

Graduation Weekend 2009

Welp, folks... I did it. :) Here are pics from the Hooding Ceremony, Ivy Cutting, and Commencement!

Weekend in Portland

Graduation 2009

Here's me and my great first grade class (aren't they CUTE!?!). I'd like to invite you all to my graduation on Sunday at Safeco field at 2pm. The catch is, if you'd really like to come, you need to let me know because I have to give you a ticket. I only have 10 tickets left.
Here's all of the info:
