"remove yourself"

Dearest, Darlingest, friends and familia.

Our week can mostly be summed up in the pictures, but the subject line explanation isn't photographable. We were tracting and a woman opened the door, and the conversation went as follows:
Me: "Hi! How are you?"
Her: "What can I help you with?"
Me: "Well, my name is Sister Shudlberg" *smiles and shakes her hand*
Her: "Who are you with?"
Me: "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints"
Her: "Remove yourself" *promptly closes the door.*

The End. fun story huh?

The rest of the week was pretty solid, mini miracles, powerful lessons, and a trip to the temple in Portland on Friday! I kept freaking out a little inside cause I knew exactly how to get to my parents house the entire time we were there lol, no I didn't give in. 

1. Went to/participated in an apple cider press Thursday night. Very cool. Very cold. Very authentic. (also, Sister Dunn gave me this leather jacket, and I love it)
2,3,4,&6. TEMPLE TRIP
5. SAW SISTER COOK! It was so great to catch up with her for a moment. love her to pieces.
7. Sweet Sister Boone
8. T.J.(from Ephrata) got baptized on Saturday and I wasnt able to go, but Sister Wilcox sent us this video of him saying hi. yes, mom, I cried. this kid is my role model.

Love y'all lots!

"He's a good dad"

Hi Friends! Wowee, is there a lot to say. Please excuse the spelling errors. We have an hour to do all letter and email writing and we have to email the Branch President too, so yikes. Too much to say and I'm wasting time explaining.  I dunno where to even start. Announcements:  I will be leaving the MTC on October 10. Please feel free to mail me things at the following address: Sister Karlee Hansen Shuldberg OCT10 WA-YAK 2005 N 900 E Unit 163 Provo, UT 84602 Also, theres these websites called dearelder.com and mtcmissionary.com through which you can send me things too. If its getting closer to my departure date, send it to the mission home in Yakima..I'll add that address next week.  So my district here is super awesome. My companion is Sister Cannell. Shes so understanding, and an amazing listener and I'm learning alot from her. there's us, and Sisters Hatch and Richmond. At first, it was weird to call people Elder and Sister and I often for

"I will go, I will do, the things THE LORD COMMANDS!!"

Hi Friends!    So Mission time is so totally warped. The days feel super long and the weeks seem to go by quick-ish, but come Pday I feel like I have no memory of anything that happened that week. And every day ends in a similar way so I have no way of knowing what day it is. Basically my perception of time passing no longer works. It's cool.     We had a Trunk-or-Treat on Wednesday and there was this family all dressed up as Harry Potter characters (Carson, you woulda LOVED it) I took a picture but it's kinda blurry. the mom was Professor Trelawny(sp?), the dad was Professor Snape, and then they had Hermione, Harry, Ron, and their little girl was Dobby.     Margaret is doing super well. We still don't know if she's moving out or no, so that's concerning, especially as we get closer o her baptismal date, but she's super diligent and is being a member missionary before she is even a member. She reads the Book of Mormon to her mom and is trying to get he

"Are you eating the Bible I gave you?!?" -Ally to baby sister Emma

Hello one and all!  Jersey came to church yesterday! :) She is a girl we met a couple weeks ago after reaching out to the missionaries who were here last year and they'd mentioned her parents. When we met her, she asked if we could come read the Bible with her because "I need church". Of course, we agreed. She came for choir practice beforehand and stayed the whole time. Her first Sunday, she was there for over 4 hours, and she loved every bit of it :) and they loved her :)  We also got to do some community-lighting this week! If you aren't friends with me on Facebook.. shame on you, but it's okay, I will share. Selah has a couple places around that have apples with the word Selah in them(probably because Washington apples, and because Treetop is located here) so we went in to City Hall Tuesday morning and asked the mayor if she would be okay with us adding something to the one just outside the building, she said yes :) She also asked me to tell the man walkin
