Are You Fall-o-ween Jesus?

Happy happy Monday :) I had a good week last week! I don't really remember what we did. Last week on Tuesday we went to a YSA activity and we carved pumpkins and got to listen to Halloween music. That was pretty great! I'll put a picture of my pumpkin down below! On Wednesday, we made cookies and had interviews over zoom with President graham. It was crazy because we got on to the zoom really late, and he let's me into the zoom room and goes, "sorry I'm so late sister Merritt". I told him just to do better next time ;) I talked to him about our crazy friend Tosha and he wants to interview her after zone conference on Wednesday, so that's good, but scary, but good! She just says really inappropriate things and she also thought that president Graham was the prophet... So we have a lot to do to prepare her for this interview. On thursday we had a jospeh Smith a prophet of the restoration movie night. We spent so much time inviting so many people... Absolutely...

Happy Monday everyone! I hopy you all had a good week last week :) My week was good, a lot happened this week so it went by fast, but I also feel like last Monday was soooooo long ago! We went on a really fun hike on pday which was so great! It was absolutely gorgeous, I'll put some pictures down below. Then we were at Walmart getting groceries for like two hours which was not great! All week people have been canceling on us last minute, so we have had to replan our day like 3 times a day. That's pretty annoying that we have to do that, but it just gives us a chance to be doing what God's needs us to do.  We had a really good day on wednesday! Sister Erekson and I made cookies and while we did that, we told each other our deepest darkest secrets (not really lol). It was a very good get to know you session! And then we had the best lesson today with our friends Betty and Ej, they are both members, but very inactive. The last time Betty came to church was when she was confirm...

"HEY COW"

Hey y'all! This week went by so fast! Like so fast! In this letter I'm just gonna tell you funny things that happened this week: So sister Erekson and I play this game, and it's really fun! Whenever we pass a group of cows, whoever side of the car the group of cows are on, we roll down the window and yell "HEY COW". So we were playing this game the other day and one group of cows were on sister Ereksons side and she yelled at them and I think 5-7 cows looked, it was pretty good, and then we drove up on this huge group of cows and they were on my side. So I roll down the window and yell... And literally every cow looked at me, too many to count, I even scared one and it ran away, it was soooooo funny!! Something else funny that happened, is I bought myself a smoothie at the new tropical Smoothie Cafe and right as I got the Smoothie in the car, it fell on the ground and all of it came out. That was actually really sad, but I didn't get too mad and because of tha...

Hey everyone! This week went by soooo slow for me, idk why, but it did. We did so much this week, but it went by so slowwwwww. I'm glad it's a new week though, it's gonna be a good week too! I don't even know what happened last week. Preparation day was good, we went shopping and that was good! I love shopping... (thanks mom) On Tuesday, Sister Erekson was teaching me to make some fire chocolate chip cookies and we realized we didn't have any chocolate chips. So we went and asked the neighbors. We knocked three doors and the third neighbor had the chips. As he was getting them... His dog got out the front door and ran away, we asked if we could go catch his dog Charlie and he said we wouldn't be able too. He got us the chocolate chips and we went looking for dang Charlie. We saw Charlie and it took a minute, but I caught him. I took a picture with him... See below.  I've been cooking this week! I made spaghetti cassorole and it's bussin, I've also be...

Hey y'all, today is gonna be kind of a short email! I don't have a whole lot to talk about! Something I do want to say though is that I'm grateful for all of the birthday wishes that y'all sent me! I loved every single one of them and I'm sure grateful for all the love that I felt that day! This week went by super super fast, and general conference was amazing as always.. Never disappoints me! Here is a couple quotes that I liked from it! We each need a testimony of God's work and the seminal role of Jesus christ. The more I cheerfully respond to difficult circumstances with faith in the lord, the more I grow in my decipleship. Joyfully living the gospel helps us to become deciples of good things to come. It is our individual and collective love of the savior, and our covenants with him, that bind us together! Some good things that happened this week are: -I played with a puppy -I ate at olive garden -I turned 20 -I got new clothes -I got a cake -my mom loves me...
