Oops my bad




Forgot to hit send on my email last week. Here it is:


I'm officially in my last transfer as a missionary! So, to keep me from slacking off, they gave me a brand new missionary as my companion. It's been an insane couple of days, but seriously I wouldn't even guess that Sister Fa was a new missionary. She just jumps right in before I even explain what we're doing! She's awesome. It was after 9pm, so we were done for the day and she exclaims: "I'm just going to send ONE more message!" so I'm loving her enthusiasm for the work. 

We're finally allowed to go out street contacting! We've been talking to people at the park and it's been SO fun. Naturally the very first person we talked to was a member.... Hahaha. 

And last night we had a lesson with a lady we're teaching and her neighbor was over... And she was very very drunk. It was hilarious. 

Funny story: a member came over and brought Sister Fa some cookies because she heard somewhere that it was her birthday.... It was definitely not her birthday. I thought it was hilarious. Sister Fa just played along and pretended it was haha

I hope everyone is doing great and staying busy! You only get 5 more emails from me! (but we all know I don't send one every week.... So it'll be more like 2 or 3 hahaha)
Enjoy the pictures

Wings of lightning....

I finally took pictures this week so I have something to show you guys!  This week was insane and probably one of the best weeks of my mission so far. Here are some highlights: -It POURED rain out of nowhere (gotta love monsoon season I guess) lots of lightning too  -We pulled weeds and it was super muddy hahaa - Someone had QUAIL and gave us some pickled quail eggs and also a FAT zucchini. (we made muffins using the zucchini)  - There was a church building in Fruita (nearby city) that was burned down a couple months ago (arsen) and they just announced last night that the church was just going to bulldoze the property and not rebuild it for a couple years.... That was sad news but its okay.  And my FAVORITE part of this week was teaching Neena. We taught her about the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith and she was just in awe. We asked if she believed it, and she said she did so we invited her to be baptized. She picked her own date (August 15th) and she was so excited ...

Thoughts on bees...

This week was crazy long. but today I just want to tell you about some bees I don't like bees. They are loud and they sting and we eat their vomit.... Nasty. They are just not my favorite bug at all.  Someone in our ward is a beekeeper. He was showing all the 8-11 year old girls how the honey was made, and we were invited (because inwardly, we are 8 years old). He showed us the bee boxes, and explained how they worked. A couple things I learned: All the bees you see are female. The male bees rarely leave the hive Male bees don't have stingers. They have about a 5 mile radius Every batch of honey tastes a little different, depending on the flowers they visited And many other random facts. And you know what? The more I learned about those bees, the less I hated them. At the end, a bee just about flew into my face, but I hardly flinched. They were just happy, little innocent insects minding their own business, working their little butts off and making that honey for us to enjoy. M...
