Longest week ever!

So this week has been the longest week of my entire life. okay not true- the first week of the MTC and the first week in the field were the longest weeks but this one was seriously not going to end. but it did end on a good note! I will get to that in a minute.

So monday- Sister ellis was sick so I stayed with her that evening while the other two sisters went and did YSA Stuff. it was great- I got to work on our area book and I made us some Mac and cheese and I slightly felt like I was back in Cedar at school and that Castle or Dancing with the Stars would come on! yep realitly check. haha I am seriously missing school. I never thought I would say that. I have been so homesick for school. To wake up and go to class, and do homework I think I am going insane! oh well hopefully I feel this way in 16 months when I do get to go back! haha

Tuesday was awesome! we had 6 appointments. doesn't seem like a lot I know but its the most I have gotten in one day!

Wednesday was a hoot. We had sister council and this was the first time that sister goodman would be having a lesson with her. little info on sis council. she has been a member for about 4 years and was hard core jewish before. well currently she atends chruch every week but she doesn't actually believe in Christ. yep. thats right. so we have stuck to old testament stories. haha so sis goodman was all set to figure her out. poor girl. I just sat and smiled as sis council told her she was full of crap. Yep that was her exact wording. haha but she tells all of us that so nothing new there! thne we went and helped sister king with her house and the elders came as well. That lady is also slightly very insane. she has to lay some linoleum. Oh man chase if you could see how she is doing this you would kill over on the spot. she is making it so difficult but we love her so its all good!

then thursday sister bliss and I were both sick. that sucked. I think I slept for a good 16 hours straight. at first I thought this is great I can rest! nope you have tiem to think. which leads to being homesick. and wishing you could lay on a couch and watch tv. hahaha oh well the day ended and all was fine

Friday! it was zone conference which was a lot of fun. my president and his wife are wonderful so it was great! and then saturday came. the best day of my life.

so I mentioned this family call the Pahias who were investigators in my ward then the ward boundaries changed. so the kids and husband wanted to get baptised when sister pahia who is a member, mom was in town. well sister pahia had her baby and the mom was in town. but she was leaving yesterday.  so they aren't in my ward but guess who spent the entire week trying to get the to be baptized on saturday? me! so we went with the new sisters in their ward wednesday- sister craig as like so you are getting baptized saturday? i was like nope this isn't going to work. but it did! so basically the whole zone planned a baptism in two days and they were baptized and confirmed on saturday before the grandma went back to hawaii. it was amazing! and sis johnson and her family where back in the mission visiting so they came too! it was wonderful. I loved it. to see a baptism especially after a long bad week, oh it just made every moment worht it. and then chris the dad went to church yesterday and got the priesthood and they all want to be involved in their new ward. oh its great. Temple this time next year! I would love to go but i doubt that will happen. so yes a long week ended on a wonderful note! Hopefully this goes faster though.. hahah

as for a few random things

- i never want chinese food again. bring back the tacos.

- we are rearanging our furniture. oh wait we dont have any. which leads to street finds. I might have prayed that we would find some dressers. yep guess who found some last night? boyua!

yep thats all.

Love you all so much!

I think thats all...
