"You're being Illinois-ing!" -Sister Walker

Hello Hello Hello!

We've had a week of laughter, impromptu lessons with some amazing and insightful people, personal revelation(for me). Good studies, someone calling the cops on us cause we were walking in the dark, shouted Bingo for the old folks home, and loads of driving through beautiful scenery. I love the Gorge.

There's no more time, and I'm sorry, but we spent majority of our time talking to a man who called us to ask us questions about the Book of Mormon.. it's chill :)

Love y'all!!

Week 2

Heyo! So this email is prolly gonna be just as harebrained as the last one 'cause I'm still working out the kinks of timing and putting my thoughts in order. So, this is my last Pday in the MTC.. we leave at 230AM next Tuesday, I don't know what that'll mean for emails but there will be another eventually, no worries. Couple things, actually a bunch of things: 1: Sister Cannell drinks chocolate milk WITH ICE. I know weird, but I've decided to be the bigger person and look past it(that's a joke, I love her, it's hard not being able to put a little bit of sarcasm in my emails) 2: Anyone and everyone, please feel free to write/email me, I love hearing about like anything right now haha 3: Role playing is a total blessing, Sister Cannell is pretty shy and it's really helped her come out of her shell a bunch plus it helps to keep me from rambling like I do. 4: Speaking of my rambling, we watched this Elder Holland talk about opening your mou...

"chews the right" -Jaydens baptism gift from his mom(taffy)

I can't even begin to explain this week. We were in Yakima more than Stevenson this week. We came up for exchanges, which were super fun and then spent the night with the sisters and had a big southern zones meeting on Thursday(and fam! I saw Jonathan Lingard!! It was weird calling him Elder.. he's all grown up with a missionary purpose haha can't handle it) It was a party, and THEN we had to come up Saturday because it started snowing Saturday night and its supposed to keep going off and on through Friday night, so Sister Jackman had us come up Saturday and we've been here since then, following the Sisters around and me mentally preparing for my DEATH (crying inside.. but strangely calm on the surface). BUT, on the days that we were in Stevenson, it was wonderful. We had a final lesson with Jayden and got his jumpsuit for his baptism, he was so excited its the cutest thing. Then on Friday, after we planned, we did a lot of saying goodbye and THEN, on Saturday, JAYD...

We're the ukeladies!

*takes deep breath* Okay so there is a lot to talk about from this week and like 15 minutes to type this out because I am not good at time management and no I haven't learned that on my mission yet, obviously, thank goodness I still have like 7 1/2 months to go so I can learn how to fix that flaw lol. Any way, major events from the week: Zone Conference was superb! We drove up to Wenatchee for it and it was like an hour drive each way and so we ended up driving 109 miles that day, which is A LOT for us, but its cool it was totally worth it. Sister Jackman talked about earnestly building connections to Heaven(and specifically with each member of the Godhead, which I thought was super cool) we've been able to use that concept over the last couple of days as we've taught and because of the idea that attending church is what builds your connection with the Holy Ghost, WALLS CAME TO CHURCH YESTERDAY!!!!! I literally teared up and could not stop beaming. When Sister Jensen and...
