Blast from the Past

Me and Elder Bryce Anderson

Elders Anderson and Hessing

When you first meet someone you find out where they are from and then see if they know the one person that you know from that same town right. So when Elder Hessing was transferred to our ward we had this conversation in May :

Elder Hessing : Where are you from

Me:  Pleasant Grove, Utah

Elder Hessing: P.G., do you know a Bryce Anderson

Me: yes, we went to school together

Elder Hessing: really that's so cool, he was my first companion

Me: really, I thought he was in the military

Elder Hessing:  yes, he so awesome we play ball together

After a while I realized we were talking about two completely different Bryce Anderson from P.G. how weird. Anyways come to find out the Bryce Anderson Elder Hessing was talking about is the same kid that played rec. and jr. high basketball with Roland. A few days ago I went to a lesson and there was Elder Anderson the grown up little boy that had played basketball with Roland for at least 4 years, serving a mission. It was so neat and awesome to see him there, it was  kind of  like looking at  my little brother all grown up. We were only able to talk for a little bit about each others life, but it was great to see how much he had grown and changed his life to be focused on serving the Lord.
