Hi family!
Where are the Thalmans moving to??? Where are the
(Note from Sonja – I told Emily about our Ward Roadshow)
Hahaha missionaries on a cruise ship that is the most hilarious
thing I have heard of. I do admit I have thought of that before though...
It probably wouldn’t be very effective. #TRUNKYALLTHETIME. That’s
what would happen.
That is so weird that Craig Blake is my bishop.... haha. Well he will do super good! He will never get his beard back.
WHERE IS LIZZY WORKING?
We only had one exchange this week, but it was 2.5 days
long. President gave us permission to have a sleepover basically!! Parrrtttaayyy
(except you had to tell everybody to go to sleep at 10:30 and
wake up at 6:30am. Haha. its no fun
correcting people). We got to sleep on air mattresses. Then one of our
missionaries went home because she crashed on her bike and broke her leg, and
now we have another set of sisters who are training themselves :) woot.
We are having a meeting on Tuesday with President Palmer to talk tactics
because we are getting 7 new Spanish Hermanas this next transfer and seriously
everyone will be training after only 6 weeks or training themselves and ya.....
We have had to train on so many things because nobody knows what they are
doing.... So hopefully tactics are inspired to help this mission out. I
am the oldest Hermana now - weird huh??
I had a panic attack Sunday. President asked us to
accompany him and Sister Palmer to a single adult fireside to help speak.
I was like GREAT. Also I had to teach the lesson on Sunday about eternal marriage. It was
only us and the Elders and Lxxxxe soo.... but then Exxxxo came from his library
duties.
So I was a stress case with both assignments. But the
lesson was good and Lxxxxe said that her parents watched Mxx and for the first
time in 3 years she and her husband had 5 hours to themselves. They went
to Red Lobster and to the movies (3-D) and he bought her a watch when they were
shopping. Aaaahhhhhh it is so cute. Seriously I can't even imagine how
much she goes through every day with Mxx. Mxx is one lucky kid to have
his amazing mother and dad.
At the fireside I thought that it was going to be a bunch of
young single adults, and so I wasn’t expecting a bunch of old single
adults. But it was a little less stressful! So I had prepared
something, and I tried going off of my own knowledge/self and I kind of did
it! I kept repeating myself and then I would think (ya dije) in my head
and got a little lost and didn’t share all I wanted to, but I consider it
progress:) Then they fed us cinnamon oatmeal cookies. But we got to
carpool with President and we talked about dating... He said we shouldn’t
compromise and if we did he would hunt us DOWN downdowndowndowndown!!
(Note from Sonja – Elissa told Emily that if she is ever having
a bad day she needs to replace all the nouns or verbs in her sentences with the
word Bacon)
I am going to start using the bacon thing haha. I can't
get out in front of my head :( My mind is pretty powerful to bring me
doooowwwwnnn. That seems like a perfect solution haha.
Sister Palmer is just the most beautiful person ever. She
is pure of heart if you know what i mean. I think you do. I want to
be pure in heart too. I want to be pure in bacon and love bacon and
everyone around me and conquer my bacon so that I can be happy and have bacon
all the time and just do what the (Lord) would have me do and have joy in my
bacon because it is all so beautiful this bacon living life and I can do it!!!!
hahahahahhahahahahahahaha that was good. I laughed writing that.
But some amazing things happened this week. Exxxxo
received his Patriarchal blessing! yayayay! He is amazing I tell
you people. He is going to be put to work that is for sure!
Lxxxxe is still amazing, and we are all going to fast and pray
together that her husband will let her be baptized.
I am breaking down Romans chapter 12. It spoke to me so I
am studying that part of the New Testament. That’s where I am. I
also made potatoes in french fry style but round (i am going to open up a
Rrench Fry In-N-Out) with coconut oil and they were great:)
I learned that Modesto got its
name because a man founded it and gave his life to establish a good city, and
the citizenswanted to name it after him, but he gave all the glory to God, and
wouldn’t let them name it after him, so they named it Modesto
Thanks for your email :) It cheered me up! I don't really need
anything, but I was thinking about Christmas.... I was thinking don't send me
anything! :) I think that would be better because it is so soon after that I am
returned and I might need start up stuff again.... my thoughts right now.
But ya I love you a lot, and I love you a lot and hope you have
a good week down in Richfield
