So this week has been really awesome. It hasn't been to cold but it's suppose to get colder this weekend. no fun. It is my 8th week here! so only one more full week and then I take off to summer on the 28th! It is kind of crazy to think I have already been on my mission for 2 months! it does not feel that way. That saying that weeks feel like day and days feel like weeks is so true! We got to be hosts this week and it was so cute seeing all the little newbies come into the MTC. It helped renew my excitement about the MTC a little bit lol. It reminds me of when I came in and how scared I was. Now I am going to be a newbie in the field! crazy!!
So thanksgiving is this next week and I get to eat cafeteria food! yay! lol. It's times like these when you miss home and mom's cooking. I am really excited though to be here because they do really fun service projects so I have been told. Speaking of Holidays. So for those who don't know Christmas is coming around the corner and I know that there is a little brother of mine who would like letters for a Christmas present. They seriously rock a missionary's world! Speaking of letters. I wanted to tell Christie Erickson I loved her letter and that she does have a letter coming her way! I hope you are having fun in Germany! Also thanks Sister VanBuskirk for sending me a pic of Daniel and Sara. A congrats is in order for my good friends Sara and Daniel! There is nothing cooler than to know your friends are starting families! Especially when you are teaching all day about eternal families and eternal purpose! So CONGRATS Mr and Mrs VanBuskirk!
I have realized that I am turning into mom lol. it started getting cold outside and my hot coco censor went off. I have been enjoying hot coco every night because of our amazing Presidency wives! they seriously spoil us! It is kind of crazy to think I only have 10 more days of wearing sweaters and then I will be heading to 115 degree weather! So I am getting my fix in of Hot coco. There are tons of people going to Argentina! I have met 3 other sister that are going to my mission finally! (And 20 elders lol) I saw Elder Jacob Crist, Elder Jake Hansen and Elder Taylor Butta since I have been here. kind of weird how small our world is in the church. It has been fun seeing them though.
Well I did not get my travel plans today. I am hoping that we are being delayed because there were about 18 missionaries who had to stay at the mtc last week for 2 weeks extra because they didn't have their visas! little scary! but I have faith that my visa will come in.
Elder Callister came and spoke to us this week and he showed some wonderful insight on the apostasy and the restoration of the fullness of the gospel. I have quiet a few quotes for Jonathan. My testimony has grown so much since I have been studying about the apostasy and restoration. I think everybody should! it is amazing how much our Heavenly Father loves us that He is giving us all the opportunity to come to Him. I love Him and I love my Savior. He has made me whole when I have been weak. Well love you guys. Have a great week!
