Week 68

Well things here in Casa Grande are going well.  I am slowly getting the hang of things here.  I am learning the area and also how to work better with Hna Adams.  And how to be a better trainer.  Training is really hard, mostly because I want to give correction but in a loving way that is going to help build her up and make her a better missionary that I am but not make her feel like she isnt doing a good job.  She is so sweet though and is always doing things to serve me.  I really hate making my bed and without even thinking about it she always makes my bed.  Or if I comment that my desk is messy she will orginize it for me.  She just has a knack of listening and then acting.  I really appreciate that.

We had a fun week this week, so I will shout out some highlights.....

Tuesday we went out into the "country" and that was an adventure.  We went to the Plumb's house, they are a member of our ward...and it was crazy.  When we got there their son "cooked us up" some sparrow that he had just shot.  It was weird, but not gross.  And then they had us hold their snake.  It was a python and it was scary!  But I only mildly freaked out.  Now when they tried to pull out the plate sized turatula that they caught in the backyard, that is when I was all petted out!!!!  But it was really fun and we enjoyed ourselves.

Wednesdays we had interviews with President Howes.  He is really the greatest and I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have had to serve with him.  It is weird how the Lord seems to know just who we need to serve with and how it will help us grow.

We also picked up some really neat new investigators.  They are really great and we are excited.

We are really seeing a lot of miracles here in Casa Grande and I am grateful that I get to serve here, even though there are giant spiders and the land scape is ugly.  :)  The people are amazing and I love it.

Well I dont really have to much more to say...I want to say thanks to April for the awesome pineapple necklace and sweet "righteous" colors nail polish!  You are awesome!

Thanks for everything! 

Love you all!
