Oh I loved reading your e-mails:) Thanks!
Well this week is the last week in this transfer, and word on the street is that either Hermana T or I am getting transfered....that will be CRAZY! We will find out on Friday what will happen (the day AFTER thanksgiving...can you believe that?) Anyway, exciting times:)
Our zone of missionaries did a service project together this week on someones farm. It was SWEET!....well actually it was kind of disgusting, but so fun! My favorite part was feeding her 12 horses, I am definitely becoming a horse LOVER! I took my time feeding them those carrots, they were so cute! After that I went with a bunch of Elders and shoveled out the cow pens. It didn't smell too good, but it was actually pretty fun :) It would have gone a lot faster with your tracter daddy dear, but our shovels and wheelbarrows worked pretty good :)
The highlight of our week happened at E's house. In the past her husband L, has made it very clear that he is not interested in learning or taking the missionary lessons, but he has no problem with E doing it and will support her. Well, he is such a nice guy, one of my favorite people that I have met out here. Well this week, he sat in on a whole lesson! We read the first part of 2 Nephi 31 with them. E was so happy and excited that he was there too, best lesson ever. And E had a big light bulb moment, she said that she was starting to piece together all the things she has been learning and is starting to see the big picture. Both of them said that they would come to church (EVEN L!!!!! ). Sad day though, on sundayE was sick and so they couldn't make it. BUT, good things are happening with their family. She says she wants to be baptized, but she won't accept a date quite yet. I just love their family so much! One day, all of them will be baptized :)
This week we also got to go to the temple...amazing! Also we had to drive up to tempe and take our car in because there was a recall on it, so we took my bike up there too. There is a bike shop that buys bikes so I sold it there and went to a different bike shop and got a different one, and I LOVE IT! It is a womans bike ( it was so hard to not flash the world on that other one, haha). But hopefully the bike problems will be a lot less on this one. I have already had 7 flat tires that I had to get changed...but the tires are better on this bike :) My fingers are crossed.
Well, I love you all dearly! Today we are only having half a P-day, and on thanksgiving we are having the other half of it. We are going to eat dinner with a family that is having thanksgiving at the church house. It should be a fun day. It will be different being a missionary during the holidays, but i have a feeling it is going to be great! I am so thankful for the gospel in my life and that I get to share it with others. And I am so thankful for the family and friends that I have that make my life so great!!! I love you and miss you all. HaPpY ThAnKsGiViNg!!!!!!!!
