I got a Pen Pal!!!

So, because I have been making all these post cards recently and posting them on my Instagram page, I started following a couples of accounts that were all about Pen Paling  and "Snail Mailing". I have always thought the idea of having a pen pal would be super cool, but like, I never knew anyone who lived far away enough to become a pen pal with . . . but this is the 21st century! We have the internet! You don't actually need to know someone to send them messages and treat them like a friend! (* cough cough sarcasm cough cough*)

Anyway, one of the girls I started following posted that she was looking for a new pen pal, and I was like "OH! PICK ME!" And just like that, I got a pen pal! But really, I am super excited to start exchanging letters, and I hope that she enjoys recieving them as much as I enjoy sending them.

My friend Joe and I also wrote a letter to my friend Emily who just recently left on her LDS Mission, and I hope she really likes it. With all my roommates and friends leaving on their missions, I am going to get REALLY busy with letter writing . . .

The letters to my new pen pal, and my friend Emily.

Post card for my pen pal to use

Fair-faring, friends, you should go write a letter to a friend. Nothing is more appreciated then something hand-made.
