Tell Aidan to keep trying! We're getting bikes hopefully soon so
he can just come to Lincoln and we'll practice riding together...but at
least he doesn't have to do it in a skirt...I have no idea how that's
going to work. We'll figure it out.
Dad, I love that all that you remember about my Pops Party is the food and getting a new book. haha
I don't remember any of it so I guess I'm not better.
Funny
story about light sabers...a member gave us these blow dart
things...and Sister McCauley and I used them as light sabers before we
went to bed the other night so...yeah. We're super mature...;)
So this week has been great. Can I just say that
having a companion that you like instantly get a long with is one of the
greatest things ever. Missionary work is SO MUCH easier with a great
companion. We've had a lot of fun this week. Also I had to give in
training in a zone meeting this week. Um scariest thing I've ever had to
do. 26 elders and 3 sisters staring at me. I got up there and I was
like...can I run? Is that an option? But it went well. It was on
following up and I was thankful for Elder Ballard for giving the Follow
Up talk in general conference. Once I got started though it was cool
because teaching just became very natural and even though my voice was
shaking I felt confident. I love teaching with the Spirit. It's a lot
easier than teaching by ourselves.
Another cool story. So Sis McCauley speaks a little bit of ASL
because she served in ASL ward in Lincoln. Earlier Sis Sommmers and I
tracted into a deaf couple. Obviously all I could say was hello and
spell my name. So we went back and she signed to them about being
missionaries and etc...They were nice but they said no to wanting to
learn more about Jesus Christ. It was absolutely devastating when they
said no! But it was just cool that she could communicate with them and
since I've learned how to sign my testimony so that's cool. We'll
probably go back and see them. :)
This week has been great but it's all been really hard. They
decided to cut our miles...so we can only travel into our area and then
back home at night that's it. So...members have to give us rides. And
the people we were going to get bikes from decided last minute that they
wanted to keep their bikes...which was terribly frustrating! But that's
okay. The Lord provides these things. But it's been cool to just be
happy even though a whole bunch of crazy stuff is going down.
So we forgot to pack dinner because we were
doing service for this family all day so we figured that they would feed
us after 5 hours of digging in the dirt. Nope...they were actually kind
of rude. That's alright we love them anyway. Anyway we were like um
alright so we just went on doing are thing planning on coming home and
eating after we got home at 9:00.
But thankfully a member saw us and they had just gotten Wendy's and
they were like hey have you eaten dinner yet? We said no. Then they just
handed their Wendy's stuff to us and said here eat this and we'll go
back and get more. So...how cool was that?! :) They even had vanilla
frosty's. Coolest members ever. haha
Other than that it's been pretty chill. ;)
This week should be pretty epic. Hopefully. We plan on playing tennis all day today so I'm pumped for that. :)
Well hope all is well for you. Love you all.
Love, Sister Curfew
