HEY there!!What a week it has been! what a week! seriously a ton has happened! my planner and journal is full of stuff to remember! CRAZY!! So ok first of all, this week i tried to only say thanks when i pray, in my personal prayers. So awesome! there are so many things to be thankful of in this world! so many!!!! and after a while i started saying thanks for things smaller and things i wouldnt normally say thanks for. then they started getting deeper! woah! haha so this upcoming week my prayers are going to be oober long! ahh! hahaha good i love praying! unless i fall asleep.... ok confession time. i do it all the time! nooo!! :( mainly right before i go to bed! im kneeling on the floor onto my bed then im gone! ahh! no! so that is the challenge of the millennium! hahaha dont fret young ones, all will be well eventually!! ok story time! yay!
We contacted into a guy and a woman. she was washing her car and he was smoking weed... (bad bad bad!) so we go up and talk to them! they said they weren't interested, so we walked away. sister garten really wanted to share a scripture with them. so. we. went. back. awkward? maybe. but we did! and then zach is his name, was like "wait ya'll are the mormons??" and we're like yep :) and he just started asking us questions. we just testified of BoM. but than 2 more guys come out of the house! michael and kay! they took BoMs also!! and they invited us back! Zach told us though that he was going to have a list of questions to grill us! eek! we just said bring it on!.... we dont remember who said that.... hahahhhaa so awesome though! ok so the next day. we brought a convert named Michelle Davis! she is awesome!! and we go there and they invited us in, michael, zach, and pamela were there. and they went off!! we started with a prayer, then they just started asking a bunch of questions! they had done a lot of research online and read BoM a little. so they asked us everything! from polygamy, to blacks having the priesthood, and from baptisms for the dead, to magical underwear!! so many questions! i dont even remember half of what we 3 said! we're so glad sis davis was there. she used to be baptist! so she had a lot of questions like these before she was baptized!! so we all answered the questions best we could, read a lot out of the scriptures. testified on what was true. told them what was false doctrine. zach was really into being sealed for all eternity! his heart is being softened, he is just a really hard shell and wont admit it! he is a white guy with dreads and tatoos, with a zoromite accent! he is a softy though, he said that he has a lot of respect for us. because not any other religion goes around doing this! and its hot outside! haha he is so sweet! we love him!!! michael wanted to learn more though! yay! he asked lots of questions too! so after we left, we realized how blessed we were to have sis davis with us! she answered questions me and sis g had not a clue on how to answer!! not ganna lie, we were really nervous before that lesson. like scared! oh another thing zach said was that he was taking it easy on us since we're so young.... haha so nice! ill acept that! take it easy! listen to us testify! woo!Gabriel is this kid who reminds me alot like my brother ben... freaky! same age, same love for soccer! so adorable too! ah! he wants to know more! his older sister wants to feed us food, she isnt interested but she really wants to feed us. like REALLY wants to feed us! oviously were to skinny for our own good... ;) umm we went to a members house and they had a ton of fish tanks! funny, there last name is Fish hahaha! but she started breast feeding in front of us... awkward alittle. but she is soooo nice! and their kids are sooo cute! love the Fishes!! love them!!! we got a new gator who is a lesbian... this is going to be interesting. her name is angie and she is so amazing! she used to be into drugs and stuff like. deep into it. than she got out and has been clean for 22 years! she is so strong!!ok all this has happened in 2 days. on thursday we went back to teach michael. this time we brought another member who served her mission in england, sister sarah brown. and aparently sis brown was michaels teacher... weird! but we taught the plan of salvation! he had read some of the BoM and had questions for us! he did pray a little about it too! yay!! zach was there also. even though we didnt know he was going to be. he asked some questions too! they were really concerned if we believed in Hell or not. and not being with your family if you were bad and what not. so we did what we did the first time. we read lots of scriptures and testified. haha oh last time we were there, when we walked in they're like "everyone there going to give their presentation!" i said "what! we did not come prepared! we need to have a poster board or something!" they laughed hahaha so this time (the second time we were inside their house, and the 3 time we've talked to them) i had brought pictures to give a visual with the plan of salvation! after we had prayed i said. "now wait, we have a presentation! tada!!" then i laid it out! hahahhaa they were laughing for a while! zach was like "wow pamela! they have a presentation!!!" haha funny guys! so we taught them and invited them to church. michael said he'd come and zach didn't :( he will someday we know it!)We biked to church on friday. we were going to play soccer with a bunch of members and non members. so we biked. worst. idea. ever. needless to say. we walked up every hill! haha i was disgusting!! after we got there, and we changed into gym clothes i took a pic of shade shirt...its dark grey... when i send in my memory card again you'll see it... ewwe! hahahaha sis garten has started calling me elder milne when i sweat alot. hahahaahaha we're so funny together! soo sarcastice! i love it!! but biking? na awefull idea. so fun fact about the people down in tallahassee florida. men dont wear shirts! simple fact! doesn't matter what you look like. its just too hot to wear clothes! haha and girls barely wear anything! so people feel real bad when they see us.. hahaha but its kind of awkward when people answer the door half naked! hahah a lot of our gators don't wear clothes! im glad we have that option to shake hands :) OH! Michael actually came to church!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and he Loved it!!! he is 23 so he went to the singles ward. we would give him to the singles ward missionaries, but he just lives really far away and he doesn't have a car. and the campus missionaries dont have cars :/ so we get to teach him!! yay!!! Freddrick is still MIA! both Kim still hasn't come to church :P but they will!!quote " just like the ABC's! Apply Believe Commit!" -Zach.So this week seems pretty legit right? but i made some huge mistakes! like i asked gabriel to be baptized, with out permission! i totally forgot! crap! i feel do-gon aweful! yuck! so when we go back over ill need to apologize to his sister. (she has custody over him) than pamela asked if we were christian! in my head i mixed up christian and catholic. so i said no. than sis g said yes! they said what? so i said sorry, we're chrisitan.! when we came back pamela asked why we said we weren't christian! i said it was a mistake and sis g said we're not perfect and we make mistakes, but we're christian. no doubt about it. so that was an idiot moment. i still feel so guilty for both of those!! soooo baaaddd!!! ahh! sometimes i make the worst mistakes i think... the worst!!! soooo saad! boooo >:(but that was it for the big event that i want to share hahahaha hope all it well with yall! can you believe its almost july! ahh!! woohoo! party it up this summer!
