Hi guys!! Since I got here early I get to email home! The flight yesterday was good! The little plane was fun! I was so so so excited that Jayci got to pick me up! We went and ate at a really yummy pizza place and then she took me to the MTC. I got there right in the middle of Tuesday night devotional, but I got to listen to a little bit of it. Then we took my bags to a temporary room. Then we tried to find my branch, but had no luck, so I joined in with a group going to Brazil....I think. There's seriously connections to Eagar Arizona everywhere! There was a girl in the Brazil group that knew Austin Slade haha. Then I went back to my room and took a shower! I finally met my roommates for the night. They are from....the Philippines Zambia, and Mexico! They are all going in states, and when I told them I was going to Italy they were all jealous. The one from Mexico knows some Italian. I haven't really seen much of the MTC and I'm still a little shell shocked (I hope I'm using that in the right context) so there's not much too tell! But I think it'll be great! I can't wait to start learning Italian. And I'm still getting used to introducing myself as Sister Wiltbank and calling everyone Elder and Sister. Oh! I already saw Sister Gardner!!! I was on my way to breakfast and I was so excited!!! She says she runs into people she knows all the time, so I'm hoping I can see KK while I'm here! After breakfast we went to a class for all the people that got here early, and they are all foreigners! haha so I felt a little out of place, but they are all really nice and friendly! I'm with a group of kids from the Philippines and one of them lives in Cade's mission I think! Pretty cool! Now we're taking a little tour and we're going to go up to the temple. I'll send some pictures next time. I can't send pictures on the computers that I'm on right now. Sorry this email isn't very good. I don't have much time and there's not much that I have to tell yet! But I'm sure I'll have plenty for the next email! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
Love,
Sister Wiltbank

| We were separated by glass for about 10 minutes after she went through security and waited for the plane to load. |

Yes, Mom, we found all her bags (and her!) in one piece!
