October 10th, 2011

I didn't get an email from dad last week, so I have no idea what he is talking about when regarding "his last week email"

anyway, HELLO!!!

The package should get here today, we don't have mail pick-up until 1:30 to make sure today's mail is icluded with the rest of the week, but THANK YOU!

This week has been eventful, definitely started out with a bang, I broke records of all missionaries this week!...

Our district went to lunch after District Meeting on Tuesday...I was outside the car "backing" Sister Pousima...long story short... she backed over my foot.

We had to fill out an accident report for the Church & go to the Hospital for some xrays...nothing is broken & I am fine. They gave me a brace for the next month & eveyone is trying to convince me to be on crutches, but really. I'm fine hahaha I have been plenty prepared for this, and gave the nurses & doctors a new story to tell ;)

The wedding was BEAUTIFUL!!! The ward did such a great job! The baptisms got pushed up to Tuesday at 5:30, they are on their honeymoon up in Park City & coming back tonight & baptized tomorrow!

They have 6 children all together, the oldest is 22 and youngest is 7. We have been bringing the 2 oldest ones to the YSA ward with us, but they are not yet on date.

SANDRA CAME TO CUHRCH THIS WEEK! and to a ward activity spaghetti night & a couple in the ward is taking her and her sons to Temple Square tonight! I wish SO much we could go!!

MOM! I am so proud of you!! I learned this week that ward members play a HUGE part in finding people/helping to prepare them to hear this message, keep it up! We have a 21-day challenge we pass out to the members here, I should send a copy out to you!

Yesterday in church there was a story shared, that a mom & her little girl were driving down a road & saw a field full of dandilions. The mom thought to herself, "ugh. poor farmer, look at all those weeds." The daughter turned to her and exlaimed, "look mommy!! Look at all those wishes!!" This is how I am CHOOSING to view things this week. We had a rough time, Tina and Trent both broke up with us, they both were to get baptized this Saturday. BUT there is no time to give up. Transfers are coming again next week, and we are ending this one on a GREAT note!

Even though it is FREEZING and the snow has already made it's appearance. There are a million wishes ready to be made in this field. No weeds.

I love you all.

Read 3 Nephi 5:13.

We are ALL disciples of Christ.

Have a WONDERFUL week!!
