It's been a weird week but it was alright!
Tuesday we did "Get to it Tuesday", where we
invite all the youth in the stake to invite all their friends to come play
marshmallow dodgeball with all the missionaries at the Stake Center. It was
pretty awesome, and Jake and Isabeau both came!! That was fantastic :).
Oh! And we stole the Pullman elder's car. Instead of the two
wheel drive Chevy Cruze that we never took out to our Boony areas because it
would get stuck... we now have a four wheel drive Subaru Legacy, and I am so
happy! I love driving that car. The elders are still mad about it though. We've
received a handful of borderline hate texts from them. Haha they'll live. And
now we can go out to Potlatch more! Yay!
On Thursday, we were supposed to eat dinner with the Branch
President and his lovely wife. But! They had a flood in their basement (due to
the Spring meltoff we're now experiencing), so we didnt' go. Then we get a text
from President Gardner, where he pointed out that every time we're supposed to
come over, they have a disaster (the first time, their house was out of
electricity for 12 hours...). And since we were obviously the common
denominator, he asked us to give talks on Love (Matt 22:36-39) this Sunday. We
laughed and agreed. And the talks went really well! I actually gave a talk on
"showing love to Heavenly Father", Feb 12, 2012, and happened to have
it with me, which was awesome! So I pulled a lot from that and another talk I'd
brought with me, and Sister Mitchell and I rocked it. We love the little
branch. They're so pumped about missionaries and missionary work and we just
want to live out there permanently sometimes. We're definitely going to build
up the work there now that our car can handle all the back, dirt roads and
hills. :)
Otherwise.... this week was relatively uneventful. But being
a missionary is fantastic! I'm so excited for the new week! Also, we might get
to go hiking today now that the sun has been out for a few days :)). I'm ready
to get out of the winter and into spring!
I love you all!
Here are some llama selfies,
and also a picture of
"Joseph Smith" that we're pretty sure is modeled after Harrison Ford.
Enjoy! :)
