20

Yay I've been alive 20 years!!! Guess you could say I'm old now. Legit no longer a teenager. Not cool... 


GRATEFUL for my sweet family and dear friends who made my birthday extra special!! I spent the day in a long meeting lol but it was so fun to see and smooch some friends! We finished off the day with a nice dinner at Olive Garden shoutout to Kstew n Dave, twas a good time and im very grateful 


ALSO its been a year since I got my mission call, what on earth. Crazy to reflect on the reasons I chose to serve a mission and the reasons why I choose to stay! I have LOVED my time in WA even though there are some minor challenges that come here and there. However... such is life 


This week was honestly super solid. Went to top golf last pday. THAT WAS LIT. BDAY WAS LIT. MLC WAS LIT. GENERAL CONFERENCE WAS LIT. Real good week all around 


We are teaching Rick. Shout out to my uncle Rick! I think of good ole Uncle Rick when we teach our friend Rick! Anywho, our friend, Rick is so cool!!! He has so many good questions and is just a genuinely good guy. We teach him on the steps to his apartment and its just so wholesome! Hes been tryna sneakily get us to teach his brother too so thats been funny. He's lowkey being a missionary at the same time hes being taught. What a dawg! 


If there's anything I learned from General Conference it was to keep the gospel simple! There is so much power in PRAYER, reading the scriptures and simply trusting in God! If you haven't prayed in a while, pray! If you haven't forgiven someone in your life, forgive! God is mindful of each of you. 


I LOVE YOU! Hope you had the best week! Yay for APRIL!!! ps sorry to disappoint but i did not end up getting a birthday kiss this year. Better luck next time 


Peace

Greetings From RENTON

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...
