So here we are again! another week gone by! This week went by pretty fast actually. Even if last monday was very long. So as I had mentioned we went on a surise hike up pleasanton ridge last monday. That was early. haha We did the same thing about 3 months ago so It was fun to be able to see the way that I have grown and changed since then. Ways I have not changed however is that I am still just as out of shape as I was then. haha You would think I would have been in a little better shape after all of this bike riding! Oh well, one day! So here is the rest of the week in bullet point form:
-We did service with Nichelle on Tuesday, we painted a trellace? Spelling is probably wrong. We painted it white for her wedding. I am sure hoping that I dont get transfered because we get to help with the wedding and I am so excited!!!
-We also had dinner with the bishops family. Bishop also likes to watch NCIS and Castle. I like their family. hahaha no they are great, their little girl Annie is the youngest and the only girl with 3 brothers so I relate to her a lot :)
- Wednesday we saw Daniel! he is our less active neighbor who is addicted to nicotine and alchol. We got his records and he has met with bishop now and when we saw him he was 13 days sober! It was so neat to see the difference in him. He just seemed to much better. His mind was clear and I could just see the "real" Daniel. Its amazing what his desire to come back to church has done for him, because without it i don't know if he would ever have quit drinking! I thank the Lord every day that we happened to run into him because I have seen his life change in the past couple months!
- We had dinner with the longs. they fed us spagetti. I don't think I have ever been so excited to eat spagetti. It wasn't tacos or chinese! But then we had spagetti again last night. let the reign of spagetti commence...
- We also taught brandon the word of wisdom. He is so great.
- SELMA! we got to watch the testaments with her! Finally. hahah but it was in spanish. yep. that was fun. but it had english subtitles so its all good. It was great fun, kind of like a movie night because the berry's ordered pizza and stuff.
-We got to help Sister Beard with her yard and she crocheted us wallets. they are so cool! We also got to bike around dublin that day dirty and exhausted with backpacks full of clothes. then we went out to dinner and I put my left overs in my back pack. Yep I completely looked like a hobo.
- Last night Marty, a single lady in our ward had us and brandon and nichelle over for dinner. Marty is awesome. Anywho dinner was great. I love brandon and nichelles kids! Nicole who is 12 thinks we are best friends. Fine by me! and their little girl Natalia wanted to come home with me. haha then she asked me to help her with the prayer. oh man she is so cute!
Well that was my week, I hope you all had a wonderful week. If you haven't go watch conference!
Just to end, I know this church is true, and I have come to love the atonement so much. I have seen its power work miracles in so many peoples lives and I am just so blessed to be able to be serving a mission.
Love you all!
