Monday: well monday was kinda a rough day. we had appointments at 6 and 7 with investigators and they both canceled, and we got a call from Pam and she told us she smoked... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! So she is no longer being baptized on Saturday :( and it started POURING when we were out tracting. hahahah it was a rough one. but don't worry, we got a tub of butter pecan ice cream and all was well :-)
Tuesday: Tuesday was another crazy day. we had set appointments at 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8! its awesome being so busy but holy cow it's stressful!! three of them ended up falling through, but we were able to teach Kathy, who has tried to drop us a few times but she is still trying to figure out if what we're teaching is true! she came to church on sunday and is going to fast today! shes awesome. our appointment with Raymond fell though :/ We haven't been able to get a hold of him this week, which has been sad! he was so excited to learn more. hopefully he will get back to us. We also got a text from Jessie that she had smoked :( but we called president and he wanted to meet with her on Wednesday night, more on how that went later. Our 8pm lesson was with a member and she was helping at the church for mutual sewing stuff for trek, so we went and helped with that! when we walked in, it was like a movie, a girl yelled "MISSIONARIES!!" and a swaaarm of girls ran over and hugged us it was the cutest thing of my entire life. i love this ward and all the sweet people in it!!
Wednesday: so a fun thing we've started doing is running at a park near our house with our investigator Jessie In the morning! gives us motivation to actually get out of bed 30 ,minutes early and get over there, so everyone is benefitting greatly. its so fun! We had interviews with president on wednesday, and it was our last interview before the new mission president comes! i love getting to sit and talk with him one on one and get advice on how to be a better missionary. and when sister Davies was in her interview, i got so sit and talk with Sister Murdock which i LOVE doing. she has helped me so much on my mission and i will miss her a lot! i love that lady. Then we had dinner at the Harveys, who are my fave old couple in the ward. (there's lots) SIster Harvey is already stressed about transfers and says shes going to hide us under her bed and my parents can just come visit me... so, sorry mom. sister harvey claimed me. then we met with President and Jessie! and GUESS WHAT. he cleared her to be baptized on the 25th!!! yay!!!!!! so she is getting baptized this saturday, she is SO amazing i am so happy for her.
and our neighbors had a party Wednesday night too :) .............. WEDNESDAY NIGHT. ON A WEDNESDAY.
Thursday: thursday was finally a less hectic day. we taught Bret and Pam and thats about all the exciting stuff
Friday: we had weekly planning and a few lessons, and our last lesson with Bret before his baptism!
Saturday: Baptism day!! FINALLY. we got to the stake center early and made brownies and filled the font, and it was awesome. the spirit was so strong, and lots of ward members came and supported him.
life is good here!!!! life is also hot. but good. i can do this.
I LOVE YALL!!
