  Hey yall! It has been such an amazing week, not gonna lie. I miss YSA, but I also couldn´t have been ut in a better area than this for me at this time in my mission. I am growing and learning and thriving so much. Let's get into it...... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • We started off the week with zero people on date for baptism and ended the week with 3 people on date for September! Incredible! 3 souls being brought to Christ. Most of them are families where some of them aren't baptized and they now have a desire to be!! YAY!! We love o see it!! • Tegan is a little 12 year old who is literally so adorable!! He is going to be baptized September 21st. we taught him about baptism and he was SO excited! He also gave us a 3D printed owl after the lesson. I have never taught kids before, but I have now taught 3 little kids this week and it is the most fun thing ever!! • Renee is SO awesome!

The One Where I Hit 10 Months!

 Hey yall! It was a good week in the foothills YSA ward! I have officially hit 10 months on my mission. So crazy. Time is absolutely flying. Mission time is like a time warp or something. Let's get into it......... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • We went to go check on our friend last night who hasn't answered us for a few weeks to see what's up with him and probably have to stop teaching him. But we went there and instead taught him a restoration lesson. It was powerful. He said that he believes everything in the Book of Mormon and loves it, so he believes everything that we taught!! We decided to invite him to be baptized!! Chris is on date for September 15th!! Super cool. We also got to see his cute brand new week old puppies and that was adorable. • Our precious other friend names Chris has faced a lot opposition in his life. He just has a lot of things he needs to overcome before being baptized. We have been having to help him take very very baby step...
