So guess what? I have been gone for 7 and a half months....isn't that crazy? Time flies all the time!
Well, this week has been good. We have been tracting (knocking doors) a lot! It has been good. Not as many people will listen to us but the ones that do are usually pretty awesome!
I have started writing down funny quotes that people will say during the week and I thought I'd write some to you all.
"I don't need glitter to be bedazzled." --E.S.
"We should call them heterosexually challenged." (A random man tracting--talking about gay people....) It was actually really funny....
"I don't question what is in your clean clothes pile." --me, at SW's house. She was trying to explain....We didn't really care..it was odd but funny...
"Now take this biscuit and shut up!" --S.N. to her dog, Killer (or Moose)
S.N. is this cute old lady who lives by herself. I love her! She is super cute! She has 2 dogs that bark all the time at us. She will yell to them in a high pitched voice...I laugh so hard every time!
Anywho, we found a lady named N. who we are really excited about! She is reading everything and she is asking such good questions! She is really involved in her church and teaches Sunday School so hopefully she can make the transitition. We have been taking people to meet her. Hopefully she comes to the crawfish boil on Saturday.
Everything is going well. I love it! We are going to go to S.M.'s house today to scrapbook. I am going to take my mission book and go crazy! Also, I need to decorate my planner. I decorated it, but I think I am going to redecorate it at S.M.'s house. I am going to send out a Christmas card like thing I think...I don't know. That way everyone can know what is going on....I just don't have any exciting stories.... ;)
Well, here it is a lot more safe so I don't really have any crazy almost died stories like I did in P.A. I've been told I'm going to hell a lot but other than that it is pretty calm.
We have an investigator that wants to take us to the Houston Livestock and Rodeo show but we asked and we can't go. It is a little out of the mission and it isn't our focus. However, I am still bummed because it would've been awesome! Maybe when I come back....(Yes, I've already made promises to come back....I had to!)
We are going to talk to the P. family about baptism on Friday night. I am praying that they will accept! They have two boys 9 and 8 who haven't been baptized. They are such an amazing family and I want them to have the most happiness that they can have!
I've been learning a lot about obedience (well, a lot more). Everything is conditional upon it! Even the little things....
Sad day....We went to eat squirrel. Apparently they'd been huntin' fer it all day but hadn't killed any so we didn't get squirrel....They kept telling us how good it was....Maybe the next time we'll be able to have it. They are going to call us!
Well, I don't know what else to tell you except for the fact that it is going to be weird NOT to have Grandma sing on my birthday.... I guess she can call one of you and sing....that will make up for it maybe. I don't know!
Well, again, I don't know what else to say! I love you all!
Have a great week! I am going to!

p.s. The pictures are a little random. It was at a park somewhere up the 59. I drove there but I don't even know where it is...maybe in Cleveland Texas.....
The two sisters are S.W. and S.M....(and me) They are serving in H.
