Hello Hello everyone! This is probably gonna be a short one cause not too much happened this week. Training is going well, we have a ton of fun and just have a good time. We had a few lessons this week I had to give a training on the Word of Wisdom and I usually hate giving trainings but this one went over pretty well.  We're still working on figuring out the 2 wards but it's going pretty well so far, lots and lots of member stop bys. This new area gets more media referrals so we do soke stop bys for them as well and those always include some interesting conversations, some dude told us about his adult diaper for 20 minutes.  Some other dude bashed us for a bit and I kept on trying to bare my testimony and walk away but he kept interrupting me and saying "hit the trails" but wouldn't let us leave? Kinda weird... Oh I was also in a parade. Spiritual thought: The past few weeks I've been writing down the hymns we sing in sacrament and the scriptures that go with...

Hello, Hello! We had transfers this week, and this was the first transfer that I had several really good friends go home, and I was not a fan of it! 10/10 don't recommend!  Transfers days are a little wack when you're training. You basically spend 4 hours just waiting for them to get there. I got to hang out with all the departing missionaries, tho so that was nice.  We had lots of service this week, which was good! We also had a good amount of lessons this week, so that was super nice!  On Saturday our AP's gave us a little ring ring and asked if we can take over another area, we obviously said yes but I was thinking it was gonna be a few weeks before the merge happened but nope. Starting yesterday we have 2 areas! I'm super excited about it. It'll definitely make the days a lot busier. It's going to be interesting figuring out this new area and how to balance 2 wards but me and Sister Villalpando and I are both super excited! (And nervous) My new district is s...

This week was such a good one! We had a sisters conference so all the sisters in the mission got together and we learned how to make bread, we did crafts, had a few devotionals, and then did zumba!  We had a few lessons this week which was so good! We did lots of member stop bys. My crocheting is still going good, I'm currently working on mastering the granny square. One of the youth in our ward invited us over and asked us a whole list of questions about missions cause it's something she's considering right now.  Sister Stuart is finishing her mission and going home which is so so sad but it's taught me a lot and I loved being with her for her last transfer. It showed me how much of an impact we make out here, this last week we had lots of people from her old areas come visit her and it was cool to see the impact she made on these people. I can also say I am the furthest thing from trunky seeing Sister Stuart go through all the emotions this last transfer I think I...

As of today I've been a missionary for 6 months which is crazy!!!! My mission is by far the best thing I've ever done and I've still got another year so I'm excited to see just how much more amazing it'll get. Don't get me wrong missions are super hard and I'm exhausted 90% of the time but I'm having a good time 100% of the time. This week was so good! Last Monday we did a quad pday with the Hermanas we live with and we spent the day in Frisco and went shopping! We had some dope lessons this week. On Saturday I got to go down to Grand Prairie for Blancas baptism and it was so good! It was so fun to see her and everyone else and I just love baptisms! It's so special seeing people make that first covenant! I got bashed for the first time this week, big moment for me! Spiritual thought: The Lord Jesus Christ Will Come Again by President Russell M.

I've realized I've been slacking on the emoji grind so I'll lock back into that Hi guys!!! So much happened this week, but I forgot most of it, so ummm, yeah, sorry about that..... The last 2 Sundays, random people have shown up to church, only 1 of them is progressing  so far , and we had to pass her off to the YSA, which was heartbreaking, but it's ok. She got Intretested in the church because of the Book of Mormon musical, so we had to answer some very complex questions, but it was fun to answer them.  We had interviews this week, which was good, and my mission president said i might train in the next few transfers, which im super excited about but also terrified. On Sunday, we went to 3 different church services, and it was fast Sunday, so I was high key dying, but then I had one of the yummiest dinners of my whole life.  We have this one little girl we're teaching cause her mom said she was interested and our most recent lesson with her, her 2 older sibling...
