This week was good. We put one of our investigators on date for Dec. 6th.  On Saturday night I heard a knock on my door. I thought it was President Moffat so my heart started racing because our apartment wasn't as clean as it should have been. So Elder Mason opened the door and I was in the other room but I didn't hear president Moffat's voice. I heard a more familiar voice. So I went into the kitchen to see who it was, and it was Josh Weier. I was shocked. We said hi to each other, he gave my bag to Elder Mason, then he left. It was crazy. 

 I'm not sure who we are eating with yet on Thanksgiving. We have gotten a few offers, but we are not sure yet.Transfers are coming up on Dec. 10th. I don't think I told you this yet, but I'm  living with an older couple named John and Gwen Smith.  John is Hyrum Smith's great grandson they are some cool people. well that's this week.

Not a lot happened this week. On Wednesday I got a flu shot. I didn't like that very much. I did better than a lot of sisters tho. However I did hold Elder Mason's hand. I hate shots. Then a few days later we had to ride our bikes across the mission because we didn't send in our baptismal record in on time so we had to deliver it personally. It took us about 30 minutes to bike there. On Friday I went on an exchange with Elder Fike. I got to go into his area and stay at the frat house. Its called the frat house because its the only apartment in the mission where two companionships stay. So that's what happened this week. Have a great day.

If your scriptures have tabs I'll take them.

Dear Everyone,

 

This week was pretty good. I had two baptisms on Saturday. My week was going good after that and random strangers were paying for our lunch.  However then yesterday hit. We went to contact a referral. The guy we contacted was a total loon. He thought a man in our ward was a reincarnation of his dead son. He had us at his door step for about 30 min. The whole time he was telling us to question our leaders and just going on about Joseph Smith and other things.  He would randomly start shouting and the whole neighborhood could hear him. So after he was done we told him to have a nice day and we walked away. One of the neighbors stopped us and apologized that we had to go through that, but I thought it was funny.  After that happened we got some hail and I actually was a little cold. Then we had a member come with us to a lesson. When we were done he dropped us off at church. I then got my left pinky slammed in the car door. It was cut up and now my finger is bruised up and I have a purple fingernail.  That was my week.

Dear Readers,

This week was an eventful one. On Halloween night I got to dress up like a missionary and go to the Jordan River temple. It was fun. I got to see lots of my friends. I love when Elder Forrester, Brogan, and I get together. We always have so much fun and we take turns teaming up and insulting each other. Two of my investigators are getting baptized on Saturday. That's great, but there goes all of our investigators so this week we have done a lot of tracting. I HATE TRACTING >:(  But we need new people to teach.

 

It was in the 40s yesterday. My companion was wearing 3 jackets and I just had my suit jacket on. I'm sad it didn't snow by me on Sunday like it was supposed too. I'm really looking forward to snow.  I got a pair of boots last week so I am all prepared. Well that's it.

There should be a stuffed bear on my dresser.  Could you send me that for Christmas?  We like to role play on stuffed animals and I kind of want that bear.  Could you also send me my long sleeved Duke basketball shirt? 

Love you
