Hmm lets see, honestly not much has happened this week, so this may be
a little boring, I'm sorry in advance haha.
Well for starters, we had spaghetti 3 times this week lol. And then
the rest of the week we had enchiladas, tacos, and also HALIBUT!!! You
guys I ate halibut and didn't even throw up! Haha and something that I
think is crazy is the lady who fed it to us looks just like young
grandma Irene!!! Her husband isn't a member and him and I got along really
well. He's a Cracker Jack for sure but I'm working on him. My tummy was not
a fan of all the Mexican food haha. I just don't care for tacos but every time
I eat them I always think of dad and taco Monday night, EVERY Monday haha.
You would love the amount of tacos we get fed each week dad. Lol
Speaking of Monday, for pday we went to play soccer and boy I thought
I was going to die. Hahah it was so much fun but it was so tough, lol
I'm definitely out of shape but I really enjoyed it!
Tuesday we had a bunch of lessons which was good and we soft committed
M to baptism. He is just so awesome and has so much potential.
Please keep him in your prayers. He is just such a sweetie. So he went
racing this past weekend and so we were talking about racing and it
was funny because all my years of watching NASCAR payed off haha. And
it was so cute he offered for me to take his corvette for a drive and
he said he would take us to a race. Then we had to explain some of our
rules and boundaries but after my mission I'm totally gonna race his
corvette haha.
Wednesday we had district meeting with our new district leader and he
is so intense!!! Haha kind of intimidating. My companion and I gave
the restoration which was pretty good. And Sister Finn gave a training
and it was just so great! She honestly did such a great job and I shed
a few tears lol. Then after we went and did some more service and we
got to use a sledgehammer to break some cement blocks. That was a lot
of fun although so hard! Haha
Thursday we had 7 lessons!!!! Dang it was awesome but I was just wiped
out!!! Lol teaching takes so much out of me by the time I get home I
can barley keep my eyes open! But anyway we had a lot of lessons and
we had a lesson with our investigator Tina and we put her on date for
baptism!!!:) oh we were so excited! She is just so precious and calls
me her daughter because I've been teaching her for like 3 months! It's
so cute!
Friday we had weekly planning and it was so long and I was just going
crazy so we took a slurped break and we took one to Sister Davenports
daughter because she just had her tonsils removed and I promised her I
would bring her something. So it was a win win haha. And it was fun to
talk to someone else for the first time all day lol.. That night we
met with 2 less active families.
Saturday morning we had a missionary meeting with our Ward mission
leader. Then that afternoon we went and pulled some weeds for an older
couple in the Ward. It was fun! It was a really pretty sunny day and
we had a really nice breeze and it was lovely. Then we had a few
lessons and that night we had the adult session of stake conference.
It was fun because we got to see the missionaries in our zone. Anyway
they talked a lot about family in conference, both the Saturday and
Sunday sessions. They really focused on like the power of family
prayer and scripture study and I just can't wait for the day I get to
have that again with you guys!!!!:) they also talked about family
history work and going to the temple to do the work for the dead. It's
so important that we do temple and family history work because we are
doing work for those who have already passed and can't do the work for
themselves. It's such a blessing because when we do the work we are
helping them but also we are being blessed. It's great!!:)
But omg funny story!!!!! So yesterday a lady in our Ward said that she
thinks a dead bunny is in her house because it smells awful and her
cat is known to find Benny's and bring them inside. Haha so she asks
us to come over to try and find the bunny! So after conference we go
over and she was right, it smelt awful!!! Oh man, dad would have
passed out!!! Haha anyway, so we are searching for this dead rabbit
and I'm honestly a little nervous to actually find it because it's
dead!!! Lol but my companion ends up finding it underneath the fire
furnace thing lol. I will send the video of it! It was so funny but
also so sad!!! Haha that was honestly the only thing that really
happened that was exciting.
I'm so sad that I missed Gracees play!!! Hopefully I can see it soon!
This whole weekend I was thinking of her and wishing her luck! This
was the first play in 4 years that I missed! It's so sad because I
remember helping out every year and it was so fun! I hope it was
awesome, I'm sure it was!!
Well today we plan on going to play soccer again oh and also we are
going to lunch with our investigator that sister Finn and I use to
teach in fairway village and that I'm still teaching here in Hazel
Dell. So that should be fun! We are going to have a picnic. It's super
hot today, I was sitting outside in the sun because it was so warm and
I just love soaking up the sun:)
Love and miss you guys tons!!!! 6 DAYS TILL I GET TO SEE AND TALK TO
YALL!!! I'm so happy I might have a panic attack!!!! Hahah
Don't forget to remember me;)
Have faith, have hope, live like His Son, help others on their way.
