"I'm Attracted To The Blonde Sister"

I'm getting bored of writing weekly emails, so I think when I hit my halfway mark I'm gonna be done with them for the rest of my mission ;) j/k

This week actually went by pretty slow! It was good, just nothing insane happened ya know.

On Monday we went golfing and that was "reched" apparently golf is not one of my talents. I got blisters and definitely damaged the ground, also made the golf club dirty for the Elders to clean hahah. Then we went to goodwill and talked to this girl and she was sooo cool and she insisted that we get her Facebook. So we did, then a couple days later she texted and wanted to hangout with us... Yay 

Crazy things that happened this week is that one of our friends that we thought was super awesome and super prepared for the gospel texted us and told us that he only agreed to talk to us is because he was attracted to the blonde sister (me) I hate that so much, like ughhh that makes me really sad.

I had to get my retainer fixed this week, that was frightening, but I made it out alive so I'm doing good now!

We went painting with our friend Angelyna that we met at the store on Monday and we brought one of the new members in the ward, her name is Saylor and I love her. Painting was really good, I was a little bit worried because I am not an artist, but I painted a sunset on the ocean and it actually looks so good! (see down below) we had a very spiritual lesson with her after we painted, we talked to her about how much God loves her. We told her about how us missionaries can feel God's love for other people, because we meet these people and we hardly know them, but we love them soooooooo much. It was really powerful, she was crying and she kept talking about how she felt something, she kept feeling something so we told her it was the spirit testifying to her that the things we were saying is true!

Well it was a pretty decent week, this next week is gonna be huge, so just you wait for next weeks email, "IT'S GOIN BE GOOOOOD"

love you all sooooo muchhhhh!! 

Sister Merritt!
