Hellooo friends & family! It was another great week to be a missionary :) Its also getting colder! We got more snow and rain and wind and just cold temperatures all week . buttttt it was also a sad week because it was me and my companions last week together :(((( but because of that we had a blast like we are genuinely best friends we pranked each other and pretend fought and stayed super busy. it was a super fun last week together!  ☆TRANSFER NEWS !!!!!☆ -on Saturday night, we recieved our transfer news..... WE ARE BOTH BEING TRANSFERRED AND OUR AREA IS BEING WHITEWASHED! We are super confused because it's an AMAZING busy area with 5 baptisms planned for November.... and also sad we have to miss those because they're our best friends. But we know our Mission President is doing this for some sort of important reason and it'll all work out. I am going to..... TOOELE!!! I'm super excited everyone loves the stakes I'm going to and area and so its gonna be a super ...

Hellooo friends & family! It was yet again, another great week to be a missionary :) It was the busiest week I've had EVER on the mission! We got to see SO many miracles it was amazing! :))) ☆BAKING☆ -this week i made rice crispy treats w/ halloween sprinkles and some more mini caramel brownies! all the other missionaries really like the brownies and one of the elders even baked us something back haha! he made us pumpkin pie (me and my comp aren't big pie fans so we haven't tried it yet... but we will soon because that was super nice of him) ☆SNOW ALREADY ????☆ -this weekend there was a sudden temperature drop and I mean sudden. Friday the weather was beautiful you didn't even need a jacket outside and then Saturday and Sunday were freezing cold and rainy and snowy!! luckily me and my companion had just bought our coats and jackets the last pday sooo that was a blessing for us...otherwise we would've not been prepared at all! (I am very worried for winter lol I ...

Hellooo friends & family! It was yet again, another great week to be a missionary :) Luckily, this week was WAY better than the crazy rough one I had just had. And WAY busier! So many great things happened this week :) (p.s. I try not to make my emails too long there's just always so much to say haha! so hopefully the way I organize it makes it easy to read at least most of it if it is too long, ill warn you in advance though... this email is long haha)  ☆Baking/Cooking☆ I did keep up with my goal to bake/cook this week! I made cookies and more mini Brownies and Tarts too which tasted good all the missionaries in my zone like those a lot. I also made GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS ! and they were GREAT ☆Dare to stand ALONE☆ If you couldnt put together from last week's email... my companion got in trouble(and almost sent home) I love her and she takes good care of me, but shes not an obedient missionary and that can get frustarting. Soooo yeah I followed the rules last wee...

Hellooo friends & family! It was another great week to be a missionary :) well, to be honest, it was one of my hardest weeks so far with the worst things that have happened, but I still just am so happy & grateful to be a missionary.  At times it was really hard to stay positive this week. Dealing with being sick the first half of this week (with the worst allergies ive ever had, i literally slept with tissue shoved up my nose because it was just drippingggg), being extremely frustrated with other people's disobedient choices that negatively affected several companionships including mine (I was literally left at another missionary's apartment to sleep because our companions didn't come back from a non approved exchange until after 11 pm, and the whole day our lessons and appointments were thrown off and superrrr late because of a car situation and miscommunication between some of our leaders ... several people received some scary phone calls from my mission presiden...

Technical difficulties haha! My Baking fails didn't even upload . so I added them here :) I hope you enjoy and remember that everyone makes mistakes! But you can always try again and improve and keep going :) Also if you couldn't tell from that long beginning paragraph ... it was a long week. So I'm really sorry I didn't answer any emails this week. I will type out some drafts throughout the week to catch up on all those !! I really appreciate all the emails i recieve throughout the week, especially during hard ones like this past week! Love yall!

WHAT AN AMAZING WEEK! I'm gonna start in backwards order of my week because this weekend was just way too cool to save for the end. ☆General Conference!☆  We got to go in person to general conference!! That was my first time ever going and it was seriously the best experience of my life! When the prophet walked into the room the spirit literally flooded the room and your body its indescribable. We also personally met one of the apostles!! HOW CRAZY IS THAT! Gerrit W. Gong walked right up to us after the Sunday afternoon session, introduced himself, asked about us, gave some advice, and let us take a picture with him! It was AMAZING!  ☆No More Facebook ☆ Our mission president is taking Facebook off our phones . In Utah, Facebook Finding for missionaries isn't super successful, people are more likely to stumble across the church by literally just walking outside and seeing missionaries everywhere and having tons of neighbors who are members. So our president decided Facebook wa...
