Sister Missionary Glamour Shot- ha!

Cornfield Fun!

Hola Familia!

 

How's everyone doing!!!??? I hope good! Things have been going so great here! We have had a solid week! We taught 20 lessons and got 3 new investigators!! Mike, Jackie, and Jinda! We are way pumped! I'm pretty sure we will have mike with a baptismal date here pretty soon, but i dont want to jynx it! haha We went out tracting all morning long on thursday, and God blessed us so much! We went and visited four potentials from the area book and set up appointments with three of them! It was was so dang sweet! 

Mitchelann's baptism is on saturday!!!!!!!! Heck ya, its gonna be so good! She had her interview on friday and passed with flying colors! But theres a funny story to go along with that one. When she came out of her interview she had looked like she had been crying and she comes out and says, "well... are you guys ready to teach me more lessons?" We were shocked, and it got AWKWARD REAL FAST. Seriously, no one knew what to say. Then she told us she was kidding and i almost died. haha She's such a punk! I got dooped by a 72 year old! haha But she's getting baptized on saturday and its gonna be awesome! She is PETRIFIED of water, so thats the only thing that would be holding her back, but we will help her overcome that before saturday!   Kinda some bad news, Caleb dropped us. We have no idea what happened. He was just like I dont feel like the church is for me right now. It came out of nowhere. We've done all we can do to try to contact him, but he's avoiding us at all costs. We even showed up to his house when he was home, but he told his friend to tell us he had just left somewhere. LAME! but he'll come around sooner or later. It's just a matter of time i guess!!   Everything else has been going so awesome! We still love living with the senior couple. We actually don't want to move back at all. They even told us they dont want us to move! haha Itll be a sad day when that happens:( But we got a new car! well, its not exactly new, but its new to us. Its a chevy Malibu with the liscense plate that has XXX on it. So her name is appropriately Chastity. haha We had to switch our awesome 2013 chevy cruze with the Cedar Rapids elders, so it was super lame. But we have twice as many miles as everyone else does in our zone, so it evens out. haha   Sister Murphy and Sister Wiest are doing great as well! We started a new tradition of making dance videos on P-days, so i'll have to send yall one haha   But anyways, I hope all is going well! Thank yall so much for everything you do! 

I love you!
