So unexpected bonus happened this week...WE GOT A PDAY!
Since everyone in our generation (all the missionaries that came to the CCM the same week) left today, four of us were left without districts and alone. What were we to do???? So instead of sticking us with another district and intimidating them with our smarts and looks they gave us a P-DAY! Am I living right??? I think so.
This past week has been muy triste (sad for you spanishless folks) and SUPER EXCITING!! I am going to miss our teachers a ton and my district (Doce A forever & Hawaii '19) but I am so so ready to go to Gilbert! I know the Lord has called me for a purpose and I cant wait to fulfill it!
I am nervous to go forth into the very very fast speaking Spanish world but I know that I have progressed as much as I can here. The CCM has been an amazing experience but its time to jump the fence. I love this gospel and the joy it brings me everyday. I know that my Savior lives and I love Him so much.
But on a less spiritual note here are all the random funny things that happened to me this week:
- Hermana Hutchinsons sister is getting married August 11th as well. They also got engaged the same day as Maddie and Eric so she understood my pain and we have decided sisters who get married without you are the worst (kidding I love you Maddie...Eric you mess with her I mess with you)
- Elder Lopez and I decided we were going to run the country( I obviously as President) and that Hermana Jarvis would be the House pet.... Hermana Jarvis often reminds me of a crazed squirrel so its pretty fitting
- My district revolted against me as a travel leader saying crazy things like "the power is going to your head" and " you have absolutely no power". Since I knew they were jealous I ignored them
- Every Sunday here they randomly call speakers to give talks. Well our branch is really small so I had a 50% shot basically of giving a talk because it was either going to be me or Hermana Hanson since Hermana Coulam had already given one. So when President Machado called Hermana Hansons name I thought I was in the free and clear. I started celebrating and rubbing it in when he suddenly announced my name as well... Moral of the story: celebrate after they are done announcing all the talks
ALSO A VERY HAPPY 46TH BIRTHDAY TO MY FATHER! He may be getting pretty old but his hair is still as fabulous as ever. Love you dad!!!
Well that's all I got for you guys today and I hope you guys can see these pictures but I will for sure send more next week from the great state of ARIZONA!!
To the Moon and Back
