Ups and Downs

This week was super cool! The highlight would have to be the lesson we had on Sunday. There's a member in a Rehab Center called Sundown Ranch, he reached out to us hoping we could come bring the sacrament to him since he can't leave. So as we arrived we carried in our bread and water cups ready to prepare and bless the sacrament. We got there and our member friend was there with 2 other people who were interested. They lead us to a quiet room. Someone in there was playing the guitar and decided to join in so we gave them alllll the sacrament. We then had a long discussion with them all and taught the Restoration and answered any other questions they had. The guitar guy said it felt like we were meant to be there and he had a feeling to join in, it was super spiritual!!! Miracles happen. 

Another appointment we had was about a 30 minute drive away. When we got to the guy's house, he wasn't home, but the sunset was amazing.

K I don't actually envy them but it was very funny.  There was this old lady playing music, and she eventually started to play Sweet Caroline, AWESOME SONG and I got it recorded. We took an absolute ton of photos and just had a wonderful night. The rest of the week consisted of a bunch of finding and teaching until Monday. The Zone Leaders came up for exchanges, and we have the coolest Zone Leaders t...

She becomes friendly and then does something crazy like tries to poison them or run them down with her car. She started yelling at us so we ran home.  View from my apartment

  Hello everyone it's time for TWO STRAIGHT WEEKS OF WRITING EMAILS WOOOOOOO. This week was pretty dang fun, and it started with one of the best holidays, Thanksgiving. For the first time ever I ate Thanksgiving dinner without family, and it did end up effected me just a little. Thinking of all the past Thanksgiving I spent with my family, the food we eat the football we watch, our wards Turkey Bowl, Mom's special jello, I definitely missed it a lot this year. However I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the family that invited us over, is related to President Hall back in Vienna!! Brother Hall is his brother, and when I said i was from Vienna I very quickly began to connect the dots when he started to talk about how his brother was a Stake President who lives there. What a small world, I took care of his brothers turtle, and he was my own brothers Mission President! We had a wonderful meal of turkey, stuffing, rolls, and other classic Thanksgiving foods. We ended up spendi...
