I PROMISE I haven't gained this much weight. That's my worst arm
angle hahaha :}


The district 3: coming soon to DVD


November 30, 2015

Ayye!

So not a whole bunch of time again, we had 2 lessons already today,
and have 2hrs of service plus another lesson scheduled before p day is
over at 6.... Life is a crazy mess haha but I'll fit in what I can!

To answer some questions: the lady we did the service for was Nancy.
We actually met her tracting and she let us right in and told us
everything that had happened and we offered if we could help with
anything so... Yeah! That's how that happened. But we gave her a
Book of Mormon and she even referred us to her sister and we've been
teaching both of them! So yes, that was in our area. We have exchanges
every week, but we had two last week and we'll have two next week
because things are crazy haha. Having a companion with diabetes is...
Interesting haha, but awesome! Our average blood sugar is like
perfect, but That's because I'm always like 200+ and she's always like
40- but somehow she doesn't feel her lows. She has been out 16 months
so she'll probably die in marble cliff because she's only been here 1
transfer. We knew who each other was at Viewmont sorta maybe... But
that's it, she's a year older than me. She's so great!  The ward seems to
get along pretty well as far as I have seen! For thanksgiving we went
tracting hahah and actually got a ton of lessons and return
appointments! Then we are with members. The lady that sent the picture
is actually cousins of the members and I didn't see the picture but I
kinda sensed that it was taken at a really good double chin angle.
Members haven't really freaked out about the sugar thing much thus
far, but everyone asks us how long the mission has had pagers (because
we both have one) hahaha it's was funny.

Ok seriously so low on time but let me share my favorite part of the
week.... CRYSTAL GOT BAPTIZED!! It's was so amazing and so powerful!
She was so prepared for this throughout her life and it was a really
cool experience! Watching the confirmation the next day was my
favorite part. It was seriously like the whole whole room filled with
the spirit and you could literally feel her receiving the gift of the
Holy Ghost, what a privilege! She told us how peaceful she felt, and
the blessing she received with her confirmation was absolutely
beautiful. I always wished I remembered the difference before and
after I had the Holy Ghost, and I think Heavenly Father was able to
give me a taste of that yesterday. THE CHURCH IS TRUE!

Love you all, have a great week!!

Sister farmer and I explored the big city last week and it was lots of fun.

Hey fam"
Ok sorry it'll be short but today we ended up having a lesson and we
have another one and we accidentally didn't wake up from our nap in a
timely manner and I have no time again. I promise I'll be better next
week.

This week has been super great! We hit all of our goals except we
needed 1 more person at church.... But that's why we try try again! We
have a baptism for Crystal this Saturday which is so exciting! She's a
single mom who is 21 and she's so cute and nice. We got another
investigator with a baptism date too so that makes 3! This week has
been so crazy but so fun!

We had an emergency small exchange for my companion and sister Beebes
companion to sing somewhere and we went to go do some service. Want to
guess what the service was? Stripping a floor. Because this lady's
husband killed himself and we helped scrub the blood..... Sewwww
that's pretty much Columbus for ya. TMI? Sorry.

I wish I had my notes from zone conference with me, Elder Cardon came
and it was so good! I really realized that I have a lot of work to do
haha but it's always amazing to come away from a meeting like that.
It's like you'll never run out of goals for your whole mission! The
spirit really can always help us know what to improve on and will
always help us  to so!

I love you all so much!!

Hey Family!

First of all, what happened in Paris?? Like, we hear all about it but
have no idea what it even was...?

Anyway, Sounds like things are super fun and crazy all at once! We are
kinda in the same boat :) ooh tell McKenna to come find me! Just
kidding. That's apostate. Don't do that. Well  let me answer you some
questions about transfers! Yes I am in Marble Cliff but the funny
thing is at we don't think Marble Cliff Village is even in our area
hahaha I am in the THICK of Columbus and it's the most glorious thing
ever. Our ward ranges all from Upper Arlington (the rich kids, kinda
like Powell) to Hilltop (the ghetto of the ghetto, my dream land). I
really like it here, there is so much diversity! We are often the only
white kids on the block and in our apartment complex all we hear is
Mexican music so that's where the Spanish elders tract a lot haha.
It's really a great place! My new companion is sister Farmer! She is
from Centerville and graduated in 13 from Viewmont AND has diabetes.
Can you believe I've already has companions from kaysville, bountiful,
and Centerville?? Crazy.

Let me tell you about my first experience in marble cliff. We strapped
my bike on the car and went off to a lesson that we were already late
to. We hop on he freeway and we're driving when all of a sudden my
bike literally just flies off the bike rack, like WHAT? Tender mercy
#1: it didn't hit/kill people behind us. Tender mercy #2: since we
were in the fast lane it just found its way straight to the side
against the barrier.Tender mercy #3 the shoulder happened to be on the
left side so we could pull over really sketchily. Tender mercy #4 we
only had to walk like maybe 1/4 miles each way down the freeway to
retrieve the bike. Tender mercy #5 none of the flying semis hit us, or
blew us quite hard enough to knock us over. Tender mercy #6 the bike
has pretty minimal damage. Tender mercy #7 even though my hair was a
disgusting rats nest after ward we were on Columbus so NO ONE CARES :D
but seriously though the whole thing was hilarious and we still laugh
about it. So do the missionaries that drove past us. :}

Well our day is kinda crazy today so I don't have a whole bunch time
or much more to say but I love you all and even though I've never been
more exhausted in my whole life I've never been more happy!

I forgot to send a diaversary picture!
But it looks more nicer on this oh so sleek wood table...

I know you probably think it's me that has the idea for all our
serious pictures, but you'd be interested to know that I have
suggested it even ONCE.


When people need service you gotta do what you gotta do...
Hidden Hill ct. Hee hee
