This week was crazyyyyy! So much happened and I don't know if I'll be able to write it all! I'll just go over the important things that happened each day of the week! On Tuesday we got to do some service for this lady, she was getting activated and it was really sad. But this lady had lots of stuff and she wouldn't let anyone throw anything away. So we just had to box everything! Also today we got to have interviews with our mission president! That was awesome, my mission president is an amazing guy, he's so knowledgeable! On Wednesday we went and did more service for that same lady, it was like her stuff wasn't going away, we just kept finding more and more things! This night though, we had mutual and we were in charge. So we decided to play capture the flag. So we brought two bright pink and bright green bandanas and also bright pink and bright green face paint! It was so much fun, everyone loved it. Oh my goodness on this night, the sisters came and grabbed u...

Guess what Y'all, I've been a missionary for 6 months now, how crazy is that? I feel like I'm still a greenie! Time has gone by really really fast, and I know before I know it, my time will be up :( but as of now, I'm so grateful I'm a missionary. This week has been insane, so much to do and not enough time to do it, y'all ever feel like that? Anyways on Monday we had a game night thing at the church and we were gonna play glow in the dark volleyball, but the glow in the dark stuff didn't work so it was just volleyball. Not that I cared either way haha it was still volleyball! A lot of youth showed up and they brought their friends which is awesome because that's exactly what we wanted :) it was so much fun, also one of the youth connected to these speakers and played normal music and that was nice to listen to haha. On Tuesday not a lot happened, Tuesdays are usually my least favorite days haha. P-day had just ended, we don't have any activities on ...

HEYYYYY Y'ALLLLLLL!!  So this week has been pretty crazy and kind of all over the place lol.  We will start off with Monday, my district is kind of boring, I love them, but we all just have different interests. Anyways, we went to the lake to play volleyball and only two others played with me. It was them against me. And y'all already know that I still won even though it was two against one. I got to talk to my family today as well and that's always the best, gotta have my weekly fix of family  On Tuesday we had zone conference and that was really good! Zone conference is always amazing and it really motivates all of us to go out and to just grind. Sister Bosted and I got called on to do a role play in front of other missionaries and we teach one of the APs. It's the scariest crap. And let me tell ya, it was not my best role play. And after the other missionaries point out what's good and what we can work on, I got so chastized don't you worry. I saw my mtc comp...

Happy Monday y'all, I hope you're excited for this week and that you had a good weekend!  Mmmk to start off, last Monday, I absolutely destroyed my district at bowling. Like demolished them, they all didn't do too great, but I did amazing. But I'm being humble about it so don't worry ;) just kidding, it was all luck, I actually suck at bowling, I just had a good day! I still won though!  Tuesday and Wednesday, I wanted to lowkey cry. My companion was sick for both of these days, so we literally had to stay in all day, both days. I was sooooo lonely. But I cleaned the house and did lots of studying and I also played some solitaire while listening to conference talks. Those days sucked though! I just wanted to watch some TV those days, like I'd at least watch the chosen on the tvs, but no.  Then on Thursday, we had district council and that was good! And we had weekly planning and we went to the park and at one point this little boy walked up to us and gave sister...

Happy Monday y'all!! Hope you're doing well and that you are happy! :) This week went by so so fast. So much went on and it was crazyyyyy! Last Monday we went to this lame zoo, but something fun about it was there was some goats that got loose and I caught one and picked it up. Everyone else in my district was either too scared to pick one up or they were too slow to catch one ;) Something awesome about Tuesday was that we got to go do service at the ecumenical storehouse and put together things that people need to get by (like dishes, or pans, or sheets, mattresses, tables, or dressers) so that's pretty cool! Then after that all the sister missionaries in the mission got on a zoom call and we all talked about a conference talk which was really awesome! It's fun to hear from all the sisters in the mission! This night I brushed sister Saunders teeth, because our house unity is great!  Something really nice that happened on Wednesday was we went to the park and we videoed...
