1 Month!

Dear Family and Friends,

Well as of last friday I have been out 1 month! Crazy right? Yeah it feels like 6 months. I now understand how Carson can see that he has 7 months left and still feel like thats forever. haha But thats okay!

First off Happy Late B-day to Megan C. and Happy coming b-day to Katie and Ryan and Megan R on the 21st!

Next it has been a crazy week. Lets start off with my pets. The ants have unfortunatly not been very friendly lately. I think they may have gotten the hint to stay outside. The blue birds on the other hand love us since we are starting to give them left over fruit. As for homeboy our black widow, well we discovered that homeboy is actually a homegirl and after giving her a bath with bleach she looked a little cold last night so we decided to start a fire in her hole to warm her up. Sadly the fire got a bit bigger that planned and both homegirl and her babies died. So sad... But hey no more black widow! I guess I will have to see if I have any more entertaining pets next week!

as for lessons this week, we worked hard but a lot of people were out of town. We met with Selma again and taught her about the temple which she liked but she just doesn't feel ready for baptism yet so we will keep working with her! Ruby was out of town on saturday and well she watches tv all day mon-fri so we couldn't come over another day. (my kind of lady!) But we went on splits on wednesday which was terrifying because I didn't watn to go by myself but I did! So me and Brother/Sister Lechaminant (the ward mission leader and his wife) Headed off to find some people to teach. Yeah no one was answering, so we tried Sis. Mitobe who is an inactive that hasn't been to church in 5+ years. We have tried her before but never gotten in and so I was like well guess we can see! But she let us in! and we talked with her for a good hour or more and I invited her to churhc as she came! though Sis. Lechaminant went to pick her up and I have a feeling that she might have refused to leave unless she came... But hey whatever works! So that was fun.

Also mom and Dad I got your package thank you very much! I also send a letter that had some rambling about packages, I don't need any of that right away its just ideas to send.

Oh we had dinner with a family in our ward and she is super mom. she has twin daughters that are 13. (one looks just like ashlyn) and then twin girls that are 5 and then a 2 year old and then 7 month old twins. (boy and girl) Man thats a lot of twins!

So more info on the member we live with. She is a single sister who attends the mandarin branch. Well sort of. apparently she is less active. Our district leader was like "housing the missionaries, going less acitve. Bold statement" needless to say we quote that all the time. She is really nice but very odd. haha Only thing you really need to know is that "water is the worst enemy" That pretty much sums her up.

Also biking this last week. Bad... I had some fun asthma attacks but it all worked out. We are in talks to maybe get another car but President brought me up a new bike on saturday that helps me stay sitting up straight better and I think its really going to help. My mission President is so awesome!

Well that was pretty much my week. How are things at home? How was the lake? I was really missing that last week! I believe the homeshow is now over? have the kids headed back to Georgia?

Love you all, have a good week!

Sister Stevenson
