PDay update 12/8/14
Hi everyone!!
Why do the weeks go by so quickly??
Wed Dec 3- District meeting! We went early to practice the song that we are going to do for the Christmas Zone conference that is this Wednesday. (Dec 10) I am so excited for that because we get to watch Meet the Mormons, have Christmas dinner, participate in a talent show, and there will be a gift exchange. Today at the dollar store we found the most hilarious coloring book! haha She's giving it as her white elephant present. It's called Captain Canuck. No joke. And it has a super hero on the front who is about as Canadian as they come. haha =] It's the best. =] We also helped Sister Sweeny decorate her Christmas tree for her. That was fun. =] I have some pictures of that.
Thurs Dec 4- Today was Sister Hoy's year mark! She has been on her mission for a whole year! Crazy right! Today our whole zone fasted to be able to find more people who want to hear our message and investigate the church. Wellllll.....I sort of got really dehydrated.... it was bad. We had to cut a lesson short because ummmmmmmmm yeah. I felt dizzy and such. I. AM. OK!!!! No worries. I drink tons of water now. hahaha ;] So yeah...we sort of spent the rest of that day inside because I was not feeling well at all. I feel terrible because it was Sis H's year mark.... =/ But I have already decided what I want to do for her for Christmas! I have started drawing a picture of the two of us. And it's looking good so far. I haven't got passed the basic outlines as of now though. SHhhhh. Don't tell her. (also, it could bomb and then i could change my mind.)
Fri Dec 5- So today we had weekly planning and also we met with Heidi! When we went to the church to help out with the Nativity she was there and she brought two of her friends!! AH! And then she asked if we could help them move! So we called the elders and had them help out. YAY SERVICE! =D We ask for service all the time, but oddly enough it's kind of hard to find. After that we taught Heidi the first half of the Restoration. She is already talking about joining the church! AAAHHHH!!!! I'm so excited! She's so golden! SO so golden. =] We also saw a couple less actives, Joyce and Dwayne. Dwayne made Sis H and I chopsticks AND chopstick holders!!! I have a picture of it. =] He's so talented! He is going to school for cabinetry.
Sat Dec 6-Today we were contacting on the trail in New Glasgow and a man sort of just wanted to attack our beliefs. It kind of bummed us out for a little while because that's never fun. But later on while we were helping with the nativity I had a lot of time so I was reading in 3 Nephi and I across a good scripture. It's 3 Nephi 12:10. And it just goes to show, that these things will happen, and that's ok. =] Because Heavenly Father and Christ love us and They are helping us. <3 And they will reward us for our efforts. =]
Sun Dec 7- (Side note: my birthday was exactly 5 months ago from this day. ick.)
So today Annie and the boys came down as well as brother and sister walker!!! I missed those cute boys so much!!! =D And I loved being able to see Annie again! And I hadn't seen Sister Walker in a while either!! =] It was so nice! And Annie and Sis Walker gave us presents. Annie gave me THE best card and THE best present! I have pictures of those. ;] And Sis Walker gave us awesome treats!! =] =] And since I had a violin with me Annie and I got to play together for a bit. =] She played the piano and I played the violin. It sounded really nice. They are all so sweet and we love them!!
After that we went to see Sister Wilson and we sang her a bunch of songs and carols and I played a few songs on the violin for her. That was fun. It was a pretty good day. =]
Mon dec 8- Today we have car and apartment inspections so we were cleaning. We had a ton of mold on our window so we enjoyed the adventure of cleaning that. -_- hahaha Then we went shopping. I really love Super Store and I wish it was in the states (or at least Utah cuz idk about other ones closer to the border.) Because the food there is awesome and the variety is great! Go Canada! =]
Why do the weeks go by so quickly??
Mon Dec 1-So today was probably the best day of my life!! After we went
home from emailing and such, I GOT A PACKAGE FROM MY FAMILY!! And let me tell
you, it was THE BEST package of my life. I cried. I cried so hard. They sent
me a cute little children's book called something like Guess How Much I Miss
You. And this book is one that you can record yourself reading it. My mom,
dad, and Alex all recorded themselves reading this book to me.... I cried. haha
I missed the sound of their voices so much! ='] I listen to that book ALL THE
TIME now! hahaha =] It's the best thing I have ever gotten in my whole life!!!
=] I also got a cute little book that folds open into a tree that we are going
to decorate. (When we find the time. haha) So yeah, when you see the pictures
of me opening and reading the book, don't judge me because it was late and I was
crying. haha
Good day. =]
Good day. =]
Tues Dec 2- Today we helped get a bunch
of flyers out for the Christmas Nativity display that was up this whole week at
our church. (Don't me mad, but I never got any pictures of it because I didn't
expect them to be taking it down today. Sorry!) Anyway, so Sis H and I went up
a whole street and put them in mailboxes. (Not illegal here) It was pretty
cold out. I had a new experience of my chin going numb from the cold. hahaha
(It was my fault, I didn't wear a scarf) So yeah, that's the only eventful
thing that happened this day really. (That I can remember.) Oh yeah, Sis H and
I had a long talk about what are some good things to make sure to do if I ever
train. I was worried about that for some reason. haha But she had great
advice. =]
She got her boots!!
