A birthday salad for me....just great.



Hey Moo-Hair!

Thank you for the Birthday presents! The ties were so awesome! I wore Pres B's yesterday! It was such a cool present. Random people at church told me happy burthday hahaha. It was a good day. Honestly just another day hahaha. But thank you for everything! Thanks for the pictures. Tell the Langones I miss them like crazy!!!
This week was awesome! We taught a lot of lessons and Kegan, Becky and Eleanor were all at church!!!! It was way awesome. I taught Kegan with the Priests on Wednesday. We were on splits so I taught Kegan that night and McAbee taught Becky and Eleanor. We saw them both like twice this week. We finally found 2 new but one dropped us 3 days later. But its all good. The funniest thing ever happened. We went to a dinner appointment and just guess what dinner was. A freaking Salad. I thought they were totally joking because they know I have Crohns and we eat with them like one a week so I have been there a ton. So i ate the salad and then immediately following we flew over to the Schmidts and they fed us all sorts of food hahaha. I called up brother Schmidt and I was like "I need something from you" and when we walked in I was like "FOOD! Thats what I need" Thankfully Sister Schmidt made all sorts of different types of food so it was all good. Then the husband of the family came up to me like 2 days later and was like "sorry! we totally didn't know you couldnt have salad" hahaha. The other big problem with the situation was i was STARVING so it was like the biggest unintentional slap to the face. A freaking salad., hysterical!
We had a pretty funny lesson with an eternal investigator. He was all happy and fine until we asked him about his prayers and if he was keeping his commitments and then he totally got all quiet. One of the biggest things that people that want to convert to the Gospel have to do is keep commitments. And the other thing was what i said earlier. They have to want it. This week was fast (thank the lord). So on a random note, Pres Riggs called to tell me Happy Birthday he says " how often do you have to do all your medical stuff?" and i told him not that often and he goes on to say "Good because i want you to train so i will go pray some more about it" happy birthday me right? I dont want to train! But o well.

Love ya
