Hello my beauties!!
This week has been nothing short of WONDERFUL! My new companion, Sister Jenkins, is great! She if just what i needed. But..isn't that how its supposed to work?? :) She is my follow up trainer. I am still the Jr companion and still training. I did however have to give a training in district meeting...which went great! But I'm still just hanging by the tail coat of my companion..or whatever that saying it..ha.
SOoooo the weather last week was NUTS!!! Yes dad..the news was right! We had baseball sized hail and all the cars are dinged up real bad. bummer deal. Lots of cars had windows bust, but ours was fine...thankfully! The power was out forever and there were trees knocked down all over. That was the night we had the departing testimonies for the missionaries who were leaving and we had to do it by flash light..it was pretty cool actually. The weather warning thing was so annoying and kept going off.. and I went down stairs to look at the tornado tunnel that we have.. and I was coming up the stairs I said, "I wish something crazy would just finally happen..but that no one would get hurt.." and as soon as I said that my companion was like.. AHHHHH and it sounded like the 4th of July..but louder..and scary. SO COOL! :)
We are working with this lady who is AMAZING! We invited her to read FROM the Book of Mormon.. and we went back and followed up with her.. she said "Well I tried to read the whole thing before you came back.. but I realized I couldn't do it! So I just started reading every other book so I would have a good idea of what was going on..." ahhh I love this lady! She has definitely been prepared! We are excited for her!
So I was talking..or laughing.. or singing.. I can't remember which..All I remember..is that a HUGE bug got stuck in my throat and I starting CHOKING!!! WHAT THE HECK! so grossed out. I can't for the bugs to be gonzo. It is starting to cool down..YAY! The weather here is perrrfect! I love it.
I found the cutest store here.. (gik..ky.. you would loove) its called the giving tree. It has all these cute vintage dresses for like $8!! I love it! You'll have to check it out when ya'll come to Omaha! :)
Ok.. so pictures?? I've lost my camera charger.. sad day. so theres going to be a stall on the pictures for bitty.. BUT if anyone has an extra GPS hanging around.. and they don't know what to do with it...that would be AWESOME if you'd like to share for..ohh... 14.5 months.. (ps did you know my mission is only 17.5 months?? :) )
I think that about wraps it up.. I love you all so so much. Like you wouldn't even believe. MUAH!
xoxo
