Is Vitamin D Milk the same as Whole Milk?

Hi Friends!

So, we just found out we're getting smartphones in April, so that's weird, I currently have an LG flip phone, quite the difference. We're all still deciding how we feel about it, there's pros and cons to everything, but it'll be good :)

It's been a good week. I'm learning more and more to judge the quality of my week by effort instead of perceived success. I want to be able to end every day by saying "I gave my all, I did everything I could, and put my heart and soul into it.". There's contentment in knowing its out of my hands. Doesn't sound like me does it? Yeah, it's weirding me out a little bit. 

In other news, related to the subject line, we delivered some milk the other day. Lelani is a less active member we've been trying to see, and we reached out to her on Saturday to invite her to a ward activity and found out she has the measles.. yeah. So we were like, uh, let us know if there's anything we can do for you, or bring you.. and she needed Whole Milk! Well, we just happened to have a full, unopened gallon of WHOLE MILK, so I got really excited since people don't usually tell us things we can do when we ask like that. So we start to head over(keep in mind, we're walking, in the cold, with major wind, and a gallon of refreshing, fresh-from-the-fridge milk) when we discover its Vitamin D milk, not Whole Milk... We don't know the difference, or lack of, so we call like three different people trying to find out if that's acceptable in the place of whole milk. It was a very stressful walk. But she accepted the milk and we got to visit with her, it was grand. :) Below are selfies of our milk delivering adventure. As well as the district, and Pday funtime :D

It's been really cool this week, as I've tried to focus more on doing all I can do, I've developed more love for the people around me and for each aspect of missionary work. 

Always Learning, Still New...
Much Love!

p.s. gonna be totally fit if I stay in a walking area for a while, we've got hills on hills, and the wind makes you work harder haha

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...

Kind of a walking area...

Hi friends! So I don't actually know how to condense everything that I want to share into a feasible email, so just a disclaimer: I totally don't expect you to read all of this. It's a heck of a lot of information. SOO... We got to go to the temple on Tuesday! As a mission we get to go once every six months, usually in October and April. Our zone all went together to the Columbia River temple, which is way tiny, but it was so wonderful. After a crazy week of so much new and nothing familiar, the temple was way nice to get to recuperate a little.  Wednesday was really chill. We got to brush horses which I loved. they are so calm, at least the ones Sue lets us brush, and it's nice to do something that doesn't require a whole lot of thinking. Sue, the owner of the ranch we went to is so loving and she's kinda hilarious too. She calls us her missionaries or her sisters and says a prayer with us every time we come.  Thursday.. we got Margaret back on d...

Week ..4?

Hi Friends! This is technically finishing up my fourth week, but counting them isn't gonna last very long cause it all blends together sometimes.  PSA: will anyone who has pictures of us (me with you etc) send them? I didn't bring ANY for fear of homesickness, but now I really want them. Other PSA: DearElder doesn't work outside the MTC just fyi Other other PSA: my address for the mission is the following: Sister Karlee Hansen Shuldberg Washington Yakima Mission 1006 S 16th Ave Yakima, WA 98902 Send me stuff! I'll try to write back :) Soooo..., I'm in the mission field!! Aaahhh, can you believe it! It's actually kinda weird, but I already love it and It's so much better than the MTC, at least for me right now it is. i may miss the MTC later, but theses last 6 days have been good majority of the time.  buncha things: -One of the Elders in my MTC district legit laughs like Bob from Monsters v. Aliens and its amazing -Our last Sunday, I ...
