memorial day

Well, I guess you didn't get the letter I sent you last week... That's ok, I'll probably tell you everything that happened again...

Yeah, Library was closed yesterday, so we are emailing on a tuesday this week. Hope you check for it today ;) I was wondering how Lulo was doing. Do you happen to know his MTC address? I'd love to write him... :/ Also, Can you find out Morgan Child's mission address? She wrote me and I really want to respond, but she gave me her MTC address, and I didn't get the letter until after she had left! haha! Postage can be so fast sometimes, and other times it can be so slow... I don't know most of those names, and the ones I do, I don't know super well (some of them I didn't even think were mormon from the way they acted in school... but whatever) I'm excited that Sister Christensen's daugher is getting married!

Summer sounds exciting. I will brainstorm skirt ideas, draw them up and mail it to you (Too bad it's not hats you need, in my college stuff I patterened really cute Dr. Suess themed girl's hats...) I will talk with Elder Sorenson too, he was in Suesical the Musical, so he probably has some fun ideas. BTW- He's cool, he's a brat-tard, but he's cool. He went to Snow College and did Theater there, we know a lot of the same people, places, ect. It's great. He's very fun, very obnoxious, and likes to harrass me.... but I've noticed recently that a lot of Elders are enjoying finding ways to pester me.

Recently their pranks have been;

Parking in a square around my car, so that we cannot drive away. (That was the  most obnoxious)

Changing the background picture on our phone to pictures of them making weird faces.

Changing their names in our phone, and setting our phone to spanish. (We need to quit letting them use our phone...) Switching our keys. Writing jokes in our planners. Leaving notes for us to find in the library...Among various other random things.  We are surrounded by Elders at the very second which I am typing....

 

Yes, I did get the CTR rings! $1 each? wow! I thought they would be like, 20 cents... at most... that's a lot, but thanks. The package was cute too, I'm using the same envelope to mail ya'll some stuff. Sending it today! I replied to Jessie's letter before I read this email, so a few sentences are mildly out-dated... but whatever. There is also that random gift for Jacob, and some pictures. Oh! and an envelope for Grant. :P I think that's all..

 

Sister Cole and I would be getting along just fine..... if she were still my companion. I wrote you a letter last monday (I think I already said that I guess you didn't get it....:P) but, she hurt her knee and had to go home to recover. My companion is now Sister Otto, and we get a long pretty great. She likes Doctor Who, and she... well, she's basically me except from Idaho. It was a little creepy though, because she knew exactly who I was, and a bunch of stuff about me, because she looked up the Texas Dallas Mission page on facebook, and followed all the Missionaries that she saw on there. Haha, so she already knew my name, where I was from, your name (mom), that I liked doctor who, that I cosplayed as 11, that I drew a lot, that I knew how to sew, that I had a large collection of photo-shopped David Tennant pictures, that I liked MLP... She's pro-level stalker/facebook addict.  She's awesome.

Investigators? Right now we are just teaching Brother Diaz. He was supposed to get baptized this saturday, but he postponed it till the 22nd, so that his entire family and many other people could come to the baptism. We are glad that he is suddenly so excited for people to be there. We are working on finding more investigators.

Again, if you had gotten my letter, you would have known that I was safe from the Tornadoes.

 

I am 100% certain that I have a billion more things to say to you. But what they are, is a mystery to me... I have  a two new friends in the ward. They are 9 and 10 year old girls, and they love My Little Pony. We went to eat at their house for dinner the other day, and their parents want me to move here after my Mission and be their permanent baby sitter! haha!

 

Hmmm, what else? I haven't written to President Durrant yet, so I can't include that email.

I don't know. I think that's it... I'll go write to him, and then come write more if I think of anything.

Love ya!
