You go to an outgoing fireside and get home at 1030 so you arent in bed till 11 and then when you wake up you feel like you were at a concert all night and have a hang over. Rough life. haha
So I decided to do something brilliant today! Write the weekly email to yall before i only have 5 minutes of email time left. Smart right? Well I figured I owed you all a nice email so here it is!
Monday- as I had mentioned we went to santa cruz! not quite monterey but hey it still had a beach! I beautiful weather! People I tell you i was meant to live on a beach. :)
Tuesday- We have a new lady we are teaching! id tell you her name but i dont know how to spell it. So we shall call her T. She is from india! and has an adorable little boy named nathan. He is cute. We also got to see Ana and Felicia again! they had disappeared last week so we got a little nervous but then we dropped by and found out that their phones werent working. So all it well in the world.
Wednesday- Busy day! We are trying to meet more ward members so we stopped by a few of them and that was fun! we also saw Tommie and she is great as ever! We also had breakfast for dinner. MY FAVORITE!!!
Thursday- we saw the Vindiola family! They are so fun. And they have a little girl who is quite shy and wont talk to us but as i left i said can i have a hug? and she looked at me and took a step forward and put her head down (basically she was thinking, ugh if you have to..) But hey progress!! my life goal is to have all the little kids i meet love me. its a great goal. haha
Friday- We saw people, and more people... and did service. We do service with 2 of the elders in our zone and one is going home this week so it was sad to know that it was his last time with us. he is really funny. haha
Saturday!!- so we took an investigator kim to a baptism, that was good! and then we went and took a dog for a walk! We teach this elderly lady named Luella and she has a dog toby. he is great. So we asked if we could take him for a walk for service! It was fun! Except for when i had to pick up his poop. no i did not take pictures of that. Yes i did take pictures of that when i made my comp pick up the poop the second time. hahaha
Sunday- THE BEST DAY EVER!!! so now on to the outgoing fireside.
Do you want to knwo what i love? the beach. Do you want to know what i have come to realize? More than the beach i love the people I got to serve with why i was living by the beach. So there was a sister going home that had served in monterey before me and then Elder hardy, who i served with was also going home, so what did that mean? M-Town came to san jose! I got to see all of my favorite people!! okay there were still a few missing like Mary Hannah, and Taylor, and well this list could go on for a while, but i did get to see some people! and the out going was great! super long since there were like 30 missionaries going home but it was so spiritual. at the end we sang the spirit of God and after the 1st verse the outgoing missionaries stood up on the stand (i should have taken a picture dang it!) but then kim (one of the ysa's from monterey) leaned over and was like we should stand, and i said okay but lets wait till the 4th verse and then we turned around and more people started to stand up so next thing you know we are all standing and singing and the spirit was so strong and kim was balling and i was thinking about balling and man it was great. Then of course we all had to say our good byes which since the fireside got done at 930 meant that we were all late. hahaha Hence the late night and the hang over feeling.
Over all it was a great week!
I am also officially down to 4 months as of yesterday so here we go!!!
love you all!
