Crazy week!

well it has been a crazy week! I may or may not have gotten slightly spoiled. or really spoiled.
we had a wonderful pday at a members house in which we played volley ball, baskettball, had a bbq, played pingpong, or pool and sat by the coverd swimming pool :) no swimming but I did work on my tan! WE also had whats called a sisters retreat. great fun.all 110 sisters went to san jose on thursday and spent the day listening to speakers and enjoying workshops and we also got to get some new  clothes from a clothing exchange! 
my zone also had president watkins take us out to chilies on friday night. yep I am in the best mission ever. Sorry everyone else it rocks here in San Jose!
As for dublin, its great, WE have met with Brandon and Nichelle, our investigators that dropped out of thin air. We saw them 4 times, I believe, took them to another converts baptism and we are going to watch general conference with them! They are great. 
Also I got a hair cut. The bangs are back!
Also Ruby. that darn lady didnt pray! but She did read in the book of mormon so there is still hope! we are meeting with her thursday so hopefully she reads more! 
Sorry this email wont be that long, but I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and I jsut wanted to let you all know that I know this church is true and even though being a missionary can be hard, I love it out here and seeing the lives around me change. 
I love you all and this church is true!
Annlie

Hola!

Okay we are going to try this again. I am going to write out a nice weekly email and attach a recording that will hopefully send! if not I give up. so lets see this week was fun, we stopped by the lamberts- she is a member and he isnt' and her husband sat in th lesson with us! though he said he doesn't believe in god and that he doesn't think there is anywhere after you die. I wanted to respond by saying "well when we die I am ggoing to come find you and see what you think then" but I was polite and didn't say that. haha but they are great! they always give us left overs so we love them! we were also able to find the Malone family again. they are catholic and have a daughter nicole who is 13 and she has bone cancer and lueckemia so her prognossis inst good but she is so cute and positive! hopefully something will work and hopeuflly we can bring her and her family into the gospel!
another fun adventure was dinner with the Mcferrins they are a fun family! she is from lithuania! And the food was amazing! but the best is when she started telling us about her neighbors- oh this one is a drug dealer and so is that one and this one that just moved out- well I told him that he needed to get clean and change his life. so  no worries we totally ahve drug dealers living down the street from us. bahaha oh life! Well also taught this young 9 year old anthony. his grandpa and grandma are members but only the grandpa comes to church. so we taught him and he was like I want to come to church. yep guess who came to churhc yesterday? it was awesome! we also taught miss ruby again! and she said she was going to pray to know if the church was true! score!
So that was fun. on a side note I love being in america. Why? because of target. I also hate being in america. Why you ask? because of target. tehre I was shopping enjoying life as a missionary and next thing you know bam! Star trek into darkness is staring at me. how rude. i couldn't buy it. well only 462 more days. give or take a two. but whose counting? not me! haha no its all good! so that was my week! hope you are all doing well! Also transfers are tomorrow and I will be staying in dublin so yay!
Love you!
Annlie
