"Woah! Don't stand behind the car! If you wanna back the car, stand to the side!" March 2




Familia ♥ and Amigos,
This week was really good. (: We found a lot of new people. But we dropped Paola. ): She told us that she had a serious talk with her husband, telling him that she wants to be able to keep the Sabbath day holy and be baptized, and she wanted everyone to be on the same page so that Mikah would grow up with stability and her parents not torn apart by religion. So he told her no, he's not willing to commit to even take the lessons. ): So, no more Paola or Yudi. They told us, though, that they know the church is true, and when people ask them spiritual questions or ask them to suggest a church, they will share their testimonies and tell them about our church. Someday, they will all be sealed together, and be a super strong, gospel-oriented family. I know that.
Ummm... Oh, yeah. So, I survived transfers, and so did Hermana Webb! We're still here in Lynnwood, except that we had to move into an apartment in Mill Creek (still in our area. Spanish covers bigger areas, especially now that we're running out of Spanish). At first, we were bummed (about moving, not about staying together. Hermana Webb is a super solid missionary and I love her (: ), but then we got to the apartment. It's the BEST. The reason we had to move is because they needed someone to occupy the apartment, because it's super close to the mission office, and it's where they send the sisters their last night in the mission. So they need to make sure someone's living there so it can be clean there can be food and toiletries and all that good stuff. So this is the best apartment in the mission. It has two bedrooms (but Hermana Webb and I sleep in the same room, you know, missionary rules), two bathrooms (the first time in my whole life that I have had my own bathroom. (: ), a magical garbage can (seriously. It lives outside our front door, and we just put our garbage in there at night, and in the morning, when we go to the gym, it's gone. MAGICAL), and a super legit gym (it's great. We work out in the morning, and we get super sweaty. Who knew that'd be something I'd love?). Seriously. Best mission apartment ever. The only downsides are that we have beds everywhere (two bunk beds in our room, a bunk bed in the living room, and two beds in the spare room), and the kitchen is kind of small. But we LOVE it. (: And the last Sunday of the transfer, three of my previous companions will stay with us. That's crazy.
We finally got a branch mission leader!! Yay!! I haven't have a branch/ward mission leader since I was english, and before that... my fourth transfer, and that was my first branch mission leader. Crazy. I'm on transfer number twelve. The downside? He doesn't know any Spanish. His wife served in Spain, so that's why they're in the branch, but he doesn't know any Spanish.

So, I think that's it. (: Hermana Webb and I have a lot of hambre, so we're going to Cafe Rio. Yay! (:
Adios! Les quiero mucho!
