  -MLC went crazy because we had all the district leaders in the mission there too again. We talked a lot about obedience and made some measurable goals instead of just oh we need to be closer to Christ. Which IS the answer.. but wasnt working for the whole mission. So it was really motivating and the next day we had a zoom on finding so we went out and FOUND. Me and Bradford found/ started teaching 13 ppl this week which is fs a record for me! Our mission found 500 total which is double than normal. It was fun to see the elders who usually never go out finding be excited about contacting people:) 

- our friend Annie asked us to come over and sing for her daughters birthday. Then we ended up being invited to stay and eat dinner and then danced to little Mexican kid youtube videos. Their whole family was super interested as to what we do as missionaries so that was cool. 

-Hermana Bradford is from Texas and the one cookie cutter we happened to have was texas shaped so ofc we made some big ol texas cookies

- went on an exchange with Sister Hannah Nielson from good ol Lehi Utah! I had a crush on her twin brother in high school so we got to tell stories and talk smack on him (love you cart)

- studied by Dwayne the rock Johnsons supposedly vacation house. 

- I fake started giving an elder a hug to prank him, and one of the APs whipped out the standards on me #eldermansfielddoesntstop

-I'm not gonna lie... my personal studies have been getting a little rusty lately. Ik ik I'm a missionary who's supposed to be getting spiritually fed for an hour every day! So I gotta get back into it, but this week- if you're ever focusing on your weaknesses or are confused/ sad/ lost- i want you to close your eyes and 1st of all imagine the Savior giving you the biggest warmest hug. Then imagine him taking your hand and guiding you along your path. It doesn't solve everything but man it makes me feel more peace. And 2nd of all remember that you can't do and be good at everything today, slow down ya crazy child- Billy Joel.

D&C 78:18- And ye cannot bear all things now; nevertheless, be of good cheer, for I will lead you along...

Besitos y abrazitos
