Moldy Flowers & Poopy Tubs

WELP what a week!!! 


I'll be taking my pday very seriously today. Definitely in need of some recovery time! HOWEVER this week was soooo fun and funny!


Quick run down: 
This week I got to hangout with Sister Johnson on exchange, we had zone conference, butchered some spanish while on exchange with Hermana Taylor (which btw I went to high school with her, she's in our stake in Syracuse and it was so fun to catch up. Small world)


MOLDY FLOWERS + POOPY TUBS: 
Our exchange was so funny! The Hermana's get to do service/ gardening at the temple every friday and I got to join that this week. Long story short, the guy wanted us to salvage these flowers that had been frozen and turned MOLDY in the rain. Ngl didn't know plants could get like that but we were able to save some... kinda. 


THEN the poor hermanas plumbing system crashed this week. Basically they had sewage water filling up their bath tub from the drain. Quite lovely. Anywho, while I was there the plumbers came to fix the issue. HALLELUJAH. After we knew it was fixed, I cleaned the tub while Hermana Taylor did her language study.


Lately, I've realized my emails include mostly the highlights of my mission! I thought it may be noteworthy to mention that not everything on my mission has been sunshine and rainbows. HOWEVER, I CAN genuinely say how much I have been blessed. The hard things have given me the opportunity to choose a different mindset and look for the good!!! I sincerely feel so grateful to be serving a mission even though there are tricky moments. The lord was so good to me to lead me here!


ALSO HAPPY VALENTINES. I'm a sucker for any festive activity so you best bet I've been dressin in pink/ red all week!


Hope all of you get the hugs and smooches you deserve


BYE BFFS

Heyyy bffs! This week was absolutely nuts, I swear the weeks keep getting more chaotic everytime.  My BESTIE KAILEY SANNAR left me, then I was in a LIT trio with Sister Johnson and Sister Debloois! They are so fun. We went on a GOOD dab spree for those couple days. However during our time together we each got white wash calls (which means they take all the missionaries out of the area and replace them with new ones). Moral of the story, all together we whitewashed 4 areas. So that was interesting, kinda stressful but we survived. TRANSFERS: I love going to transfers and seeing so many friends!! I got transferred to good ole R-Town. Renton is more south in the mission than I'm used to so I'm excited for a change. South= a more humble crowd and it's already been very cool to see how willing/open people are to learning more about Jesus Christ.  My new companion is Sister Melton, she is a sweetie cutie petite little dumpling sugar plum! I served with her i...

Not So Funny

This week was awesome!!  We did lots of service and got to help out with all the kiddos in church yesterday! PRIMARY PROGRAM GOES CRAZY, we've been helping them prepare for their performance for a couple weeks now so it was really fun to see it put all together! Also a miracle that I got some of my bffs to sing #blessup  FUNNY (not so funny) moment of the week: we had to drop our friend. Sadly one of our friends.... was tryna be a lil more than friends with Sister Wallis. He had me straight up third wheeling so that was amusing but not for Sister Wallis. Rip Gary. Officially been a missionary for 4 months!! Even though I have a lot more time left, I've been reflecting on what I've experienced so far! Quite sure I say this every week, but I have been SO blessed! It is WILD to see how what I believe has changed and grown. It is a miracle in itself that I am here serving but even more so how many good things I have been given while doing so! My mission has shown me how ...

HAPPY MONDAY!!!  Got to go to the temple on Friday with friends and it was SO fun! We grubbed at cafe rio after and this dude was tryna get our church address but it was a little sus how bad he wanted it so we are gonna send the Elders his way Funny story from this week! I was on an exchange with the stls and a car of boys asked for our numbers. It was a pretty funny interaction telling them how we are on missions and we don't date for a couple years Anyway enough with the weird things that happened... this week so awesome! Sister Hatt and I are bffs!!! We get cracked up about stuff all the time and I feel so grateful that she is my companion, the transfer is flying by so im gettin a wee bit nervous that change could be coming my way. However, I know that whatever happens will be for a reason and it will help me learn and grow!!!  As I have been more immersed in the scriptures on my mission, I have found so much joy through reading the Bible and the Book of Mormon! I...
