  Wednesday February 17th:  Today was mega lame. We couldn't leave the house so we slept and talked to family. The end of pday rolled around we found 5 new people!! It was super cool!! We shared one gospel of Jesus Christ lesson with Dulce and Hakeem who were together, then 3 restoration lessons with Elizabeth, Dwayne, and Felice! It was a great teaching day!!  Thursday: We watched the missionary devotional in the am. Had a great lesson with a guy named Juan on the restoration. We taught Hakeem from last night the Plan of Salvation and that went great!! Then we talked to this guy named Umar and that was weird lol he isn't Christian so he has a lot of interesting beliefs but we set up a time to call back! We shared the restoration with guy named Vincent who didn't really care, so that was lame. Had a pretty good lesson with a lady named J.J., she appreciated it and agreed with everything and even wants a Book of Mormon, but said she isn't leaving her church. *face palm* ...

  Week 52 Wednesday February 10th: Today was good! Had a good nap in the morning and then went to the church. We played basketball, talked, and put logos on some shirts, and just hung out! Then we got Panda and came home and talked to family! After pday was over we did a lot of finding. Had a lesson with a lady named Julie, long story short she is one of the fools mentioned in 2 Nephi 29. Then we had a lesson with a new lady named Jackie, and it started off as if she wasn't interested but we got to talking and set up a return appointment and she seems super cool! Then we had a lesson with Bobby and just read part of Alma 36 with him. It was a pretty good day nothing too crazy though!  Thursday: Today was decent. We had a big ice storm last night so it was advised everyone stay home, really affected us!! We taught a few lessons, lots of rejection as always, had our last district call before transfers. We also watched an MTC devotional which was good! Brother Merrill brought us ...

  Wednesday February 3rd: Today was sweet! We went and fished in the morning at the Ross' pond, (no relation to the Ross' in Provo ha) It was super cold so the fish weren't too active... we only caught one fish and Elder Thacker caught it. We came home and had a campfire with the district and cooked hotdogs and smores and played games. We had a good time and then we came home and talked to family until pday was over. After pday we got back to work, to be honest nothing really worth reporting on, just a lot of finding and rejection. It was a good day though!  Thursday: Today was alright. Watched an MTC devotional, Elder and Sister Scofield came to do our apartment inspection (they were impressed, see mom I do know how to clean!) We did some finding, had a Facebook meeting, had a super quick lesson talking to Desiree about the Book of Mormon. Had a really spiritual lesson with Ciera. We just don't really know what to do from here, she's been taught basically everythin...

Ugh, the font has no water

  Wednesday January 27th: Today was pretty sweet, sadly it flew by. We got a good rest in the morning and then went to Huddle House for brunch which is always a slap. Then we went to Walmart and got some cheap t-shirts to tie dye with the sisters. We went to the church, played some basketball, and then attempted to dye the shirts but only half of them worked and the others just didn't bleach... sad day, but the sisters took them home to try and do it later this week when they can! We came home and had a couple really good lessons!! One with Diona and one with Shawntay, we know Diona is not in our area but with Shawntay there is a chance so we will find out shortly. We also had an awesome lesson with Katie and member and she knows the basics so well, it is so cool to see how far she has come and is continuing to go! That was pretty much it though, not a bad day!!  Thursday: Today was super good! We taught 8 lessons!! We did a ton of finding and worked super hard, we invited 86 ...
