21 letter and some pictures!!

Hey! how yall doin?

So this past week has been a WOAH statement! like not even playen! First of all, being changed into what the Lord wants you to be is hard. Like my aunt Audrey said. The Lord is stretching me and im growing! im glad its happening now instead of at the end of my mission... No regrets! But urrg! can i just see the end result but... that would ruin the whole moment! :P well i never realized how us as missionaries can change a persons attitude just by walking up and talking to them! there was this guy we knew, and he was sitting on the steps in front of this house. we walked up and just started making small talk, gave him a BoM, testified. He jumped up came down the few steps of stairs and shook our hands thanking us... We were a little taken back. He was having a really hard day and was having to make big decisions and what we had said gave him hope and light!

Even though we talked for like 5 mins, the spirit touched his heart and changed him! he is now a gator :)

Do yall remember Kim? Kim from the pot hood? well we taught her!! and we comitted her to be baptized!! wooo!!! on the 27 of july :) (breannas birthday) but she is engaged to her fiance brandon. so we taught the law of chasity... its still awkward sometimes hahaha. but she said she wants to get married so that she can get baptized!!! wooo!! so she is going to get married on the 20 of july! (sis gartens sisters bday) WOOH!!! she had been praying and reading and its just amazing!!!

President Jensen has officially left and President Jensen is officially in charge! we hear he is super funny :) we get to meet him tomorrow tuesday :) thatll be awesome! elder buchannon said that there are going to be BIG changes! woooooo!! hahaa

WE LOVE HER!! she bought us goodie bags for helping her paint. earings, a necklace, headband with a flower on it!! AHH! seriously... she . spoils. us! i feel like these past few transfers people have been giving us so much! its super sweet! and it pushes us to do more good deeds for the ward!!

So this couple wanted to take us sisters and elders out to eat. they said to pick a place! so we talked with the elders who told us to pick a place. so me and sis g did. Indian food. haha me and sis g loved it! the rest.. eeh.... we felt super bad! but they gave that responsibility to us! and we gave them a few options! hahaha it was a super funny dinner! i love the Grissets! they are super nice!!!

Umm what else. this members little 4 year old boy was throwing things at us... he was in a bad mood and decided to take it out on the missionaries... super awkward!

our car knows how to swim now. we were flying through giant puddles of muddy water to get to members houses ahahhaha so scary dnagerous and fun! dont tell the ZLs though they get cautious and nervous... hahahhahahahahaha

Kim came to CHURCH!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOO!!!!! oh my and so did TIRA! i havent said much about her but she is a returning member and her family is SUPER anit-mormon! but she is 21 and has a super strong testimony!!! and she came to church! some of the things she texts us makes us teary eyed! she always says how she wouldn't be here with out us. We tell her how much we love her and how much more Heavenly Father loves her! she is so incredible! we love her so much! i just want to hug her forever and tell her how proud i am of her! i than realized, that if i feel this much love for her when she starts doing the things the Lord asks of her, how much more is Heavenly Father proud of us! i could seriously squeeze her till i kill her! i love her soooo much!!

Now on to the story with Kim... KIM GETTIN MARRIED!!!!!! than BAPTIZED!! wooooooooooooooooooooooooo so flippen happy! one family member had a baby blessing and than invited us over after, and told us that Kim could come too! they were going to help plan her wedding. so we go. not much happened. we could only stay for an hour :P but Kim was doing so good! so we left and a few hours later we get this call from brother Johnson saying that they have finished planning the wedding. Kim is going to borrow sis johnsons wedding dress. i guess she tried it on and started crying!! (inside we're like "WHAT WE MISSED THATTTTT?!?!?!?!??!?!?!")  and then they just went ahead and planned her baptism! sis g is saying the opening prayer and i am giving a talk, no more than 5 mins... (inside we're like...what just happened.) All we have to do is show up! finish teaching Kim, get her interviewed and than show up!!! WHAATT?!?!?!?! So amazing! they're doing everything!! we have such an amazing ward!!! they are doing it all!!!
Kim wants this soo bad! and her fiance brandon supports her completly!! he said she can convert him when she's converted! she is learning so much so fast! and loves church and the whole dynamic of it! she really loves relief society!! so much fun!! Kim is soooooo cute!!! i seriously just hug her for like 14 seconds. hahah she is so cute!! and the ward loves her!! ahhh!!!! we're having a wedding and a baptism!!!!!!!!!!! and we dont have to really plan anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

basically i love being a missioniary!! this transfer is going to be epic!!

Keep enduring to the end! stay strong! pray to Heavenly Father!
