Literally soooooo much happened this week!!! Buttt I don't have any motivation to write this email sooooo here's some bullet points:
☆Had our LAST Zone Conference with President and Sister Monson--how has it all gone so fast!!?? Anyway it was the best ZC I've been to (even if Daines and I did have to wake up at 5:30am to get everything ready lol) and also the saddest most surreal thing saying goodbye to the Monsons. I felt the spirit so so SO strong during their testimonies and discussion on the Atonement and made President cry with our musical number--so I would say Steevee and I did good haha. But at the end we gave both of them flowers and surprised them with a video from every companionship in the Zone saying memories and things they love about them. It was so cute! God bless the social media Elders for making it so last minute. They are legends. It's the most I've ever seen President cry:,) Gonna miss them so much!!!!!
☆Hit my year on Tuesday as well AHHHHHH! The Howard's threw me a bday party with a piñata and ice cream and fun! I slso burned a dress I accidentally stole from an older lady aha so that was fun!
☆Daines got attacked by a recent convert's pitbull dog lol... Bandit was only attacking Daines and I thought it was the funniest thing so I called him over again... BAD idea! He attacked ME and DROWNED me in his kisses. I couldn't get him off either bahahha!
☆Lots of Bing finds this week!!! (Finding people who want to come closer to Jesus Christ by following the Spirit.)
☆One of the hoarders houses we teach at had cat poop all over the ground and I dropped my pencil in it... DISCUSTING! It took all of her strength for Daines to not die laughing. Side note: She also kicked said people's cat because she didn't want to pick it up with her hands and tried to get it on the bed... the cat died the next day. Yes Daines is officially a cat murderer ahem, I think we all could see it coming. RIP Ricky Winky!
☆GALLMAN GOT BAPTIZED ON SATURDAY AND RECIEVED THE GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST ON SUNDAY!! (Baptism by water and fire y'alllllll) He is so happy and keeps saying he literally feels like a new man:) And it all started from him following the Spirit to call the number on the pass-along card that missionaries slid in his door a while back. They will never know the seed they planted but because of those Sisters, Gallman has made he says, "the best decision of my life".
☆One of the people we are teaching made us the most authentic southern meal I've had on my mission with fried chicken wings, fried turkey wings, chicken neck beans and rice, cornbread, baked chicken, Mac and Cheese, and other fried stuff I can't remember what they were but it was a FEAST haha! The only vegetables on that plate was the vegetable oil the wings were fried in lol! Todd my brother in law would love it--definitely the healthiest meal;)
☆It rained a TON this week! One day Daines parked next to a super steep ditch (basically a cliff) and made me have to par core out of the car to not fall in the little river that formed lol. THEN my water bottle fell into it so I looked like a pregnant lady trying to pick it up with my feet against both sides of the ditch lol...

I love it here. I never want my mission to end. I posted my year video and making it brought up so many memories and experiences I've had with so many people I love to death!! Looking at the person that got on the plane to where I am now is night and day. It's all because of Jesus Christ. He was there between the hard and good, the broken and healed, the weaknesses and strengths, the discouraged and determined. He made up for it all and I am nothing without Him. I never want to walk away from my Savior again but even if we do He is there again and again and again to pick us up and keep us going on the fantastic journey of life!
I love you all so much! I love God SO much. I love His Son Jesus Christ so much!
They truly love us x infinity!
