Yellow House was
definitely where I needed to be in the summer (Logan 2016). I convinced Ryan Wood to be my
roommate, so we shared a room. The house was awesome, and Ryan and I got the
tiny room downstairs, but there are four rooms and eight guys, one shower, two
bathrooms, two fridges, but the living room and backyard COMPLETELY made up for
the smallness of the room Ryan and I shared. Live in a small space? Again,
cross it off the bucket list. We had a big tire swing on a tree in the
backyard, and if you looked out the window just right, you could see THE
TEMPLE! My roommates: Ryan Wood, Josh Snyder, Matt Soelberg, Danny Fullmer,
Hank Costner, Jordan Cline, and Kody Sanchez. Great, great guys to live with.

I switched wards,
too. Yellow House is on Darwin Avenue, literally next to the Institute
building. So I got to walk to Church- 15 seconds. The 18th Ward was
definitely something else. Our ward consisted of all the houses on Darwin
Avenue. I also got a calling to be a Home Teaching District Coordinator-
basically, be in charge of half the Elder’s Quorum and remind them to do
their Home Teaching. It was a little crazy for me but it helped me grow. It was
especially crazy at the end of the month!
