Wait...you know Poptropica???

What is up my friends!!! 

Man another week in the books. Fun fact...I have journaled every single day of my life for the past 15 months and I have filled up almost 4 journals. And I'm pretty sure I'll get another one before I finish here. But that's crazy to me haha anyway... Here have been some of the highlights of my past week...enjoy! 

°Rain, rain, and more rain-it has been dumping all week and I absolutely love it! There have been tons of puddles to jump over. And tons of times to dance in the rain so you know I've been having a blast.
°Sister Neatherlin- We finally got to meet the relief society president here...oh another fun fact I am now the secretary in the relief society hahaha. It's fun to have another calling besides a missionary. But anyway. She's old and super cute. And hilarious. One thing that's crazy that my comp and I realized this week is that if people see the badge on your chest they feel like they can just spill their whole entire life story to you. Sooo she did that to us...many times. It was a pretty cool experience too. We're her new best friends. She texts us for everything...like helping her find her apps on her tablet. Ah love her. πŸ˜‚
°Knocking doors!-So we can like knock doors of recent formers that have talked with other missionaries. We got to do a lot of that this week while walking the streets and carrying our dog beating stick. My knuckles have never been more happy. 

°Yelling at kids-Hermana Miller and I were walking around this neighborhood and we like actually had to wear a jacket because it was a lil chilly but these teenagers were in front of us the whole time and as we were walking back to the car Hermana Miller was like...
Her: we should have asked them if they wanted a Jesus card
Me: do it...go ask them *they were ahead of us a pretty good distance
Her: they're kind of far
Me: just yell at them
Her: I'm not going to do that
Me: why not
Her: that's weird
Me:*yelling so they'd hear me HEY CAN WE GIVE YOU GUYS SOMETHING?? *my comp a little embarrassed staring at me by the car
Them: what?
Me: CAN WE GIVE YOU A PICTURE OF JESUS
Them: no it's okay
Me: IT'S JUST A PICTURE OF JESUS
ARE YOU SURE??????
Them: it's okay *keeps walking farther away
Me: OKAY HAVE A GOOD NIGHT
*we get in the car
Her: I would never ever done that in my entire life
Me:why not it's fun to yell at people
Her:continues to stare at me and just busts up laughing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
She's a funny one...I'll get her to do it one of these days hahaha

°Food bank-We volunteered at the local food bank and moved some meat from one freezer into a plastic bag and then into the other freezer. The little old ladies were pretty happy...they gave us little Gatorades! SCORE!!! And they said we can come anytime we want.
But when we were moving meat we both realized we loved a ton of the same old PBS and random kid shows when we were little! AND POPTROPICA the computer game. We were laughing SO HARD πŸ˜‚ we're both big nerds so it works hahahah 

°Alan-this dude is pretty cool and has the best questions and is just extremely grateful we call and teach him things. He also joins our zoom church and participates!! Phat blessing. 

°Movie Night-WE WATCHED THE LION KING LIKE THE NEW NEW ONE I HAVEN'T SEEN BECAUSE I'VE BEEN A MISSIONARY. Anyway we had more people show up to that then church...so like that's pretty neat haha

°Cactus wall-We had a Photoshoot because I needed a new picture for Facebook to flex on everyone that I'm in Zapata so of courseeeee we went to the cactus wall.
I LOVE THAT WALL SO MUCH. 🌡🌻

°Grandma and Bujo- We visited this cute little sister who the missionaries call grandma. She talked our ears off for forever. We just nodded and put a couple of wows and okays in their every once in a while. It was great. She was so happy to see us because she thought the sisters were gone. But we replaced them. And Bujo is her grandson that was baptized almost a year ago. He's pretty cool and around our age. But he just played call of duty most of the time haha he died a lot it was lowkey hilarious 

Anyway my week was pretty dang good.
I also spoke in church...I forgot until the morning of so that was fun.

But I do have a testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ. He's my best friend. I feel like he's kind of like our dog beating stick...always there if we need it.
I also know that we aren't perfect and THAT IS COMPLETELY NORMAL. We all have things we struggle with. That's kind of what being human is for. But because our father in Heaven loves the crap out of us he's never going to leave us stranded. I know that for a fact. But if you are having a hard time or literally need anything
I AM HERE FOR YOU. Let me know...Please. :)
I love you guys like a lot a lot.
And I hope you can see God's hand in your life a little bit everyday. Because he's always there.

Stay 2 legit 2 quit and help a sista out and pray for rain for the fires πŸ”₯
Con todo mi amor,
Hermana Darling
