Taxidermy Restaurant

April 13, 2015 

This week was pretty great..in it's own little way. One of the other Sisters has been out of service due to the flu for the past 2 weeks but they still had appointments and things that they had to get done so we we went on a couple of mini exchanges to help them out. I went our with Sister Cromwell both times. It was so nice to get out my 6 by 6 mile radius for almost the first time in 4 months. haha. And I didn't even have to be the one to plan what to do next! Yep, it was great. I forgot how nice that feels. I loved it though. We went and saw this little old lady from Puerto Rico. Oh my gosh, I have never laughed so hard. She was hilarious! She told us everything she knew;) but it was actually really enjoyable and fun. I always love getting to meet such fun people like her. We had a really fun dinner appointment with the Jackman family and then headed off to visit one more less active, only we never actually got to the door. We had most amazing conversation instead. haha. That sounds bad but we both really needed it. It was one of those times where I knew that the Lord was very aware of me. Everything that she said was exactly what I needed to hear. I knew that the Spirit was guiding our conversation and we both learned and grew together. Hurray for answered prayers! 

We had lots of fun at squash4friends too. We had to take out all of the old winter crop of broccoli and whatnot so by the time we were done hauling it all off we looked  more like homeless old people than missionaries. We were hunched over and covered in dirt from head to toe. Yep, we were quite the sight, I still look like I got attacked by a dog from all of my scratches. It was way fun though. Look out California! The glamour girls are comin to town! I love being with the other missionaries! We also got to take home the last little bit of the veggies that were left. I didn't even have to buy produce this week! Which is nice because that is basically my diet when we aren't with members for dinner. I make a green smoothie every morning for breakfast so I go through a lot of greens. I've seen the results of eating crud every day and it aint pretty. haha. Motivation comes from all sorts of places. 

I don't have much of an update for you I just wanted to let ya know that I love you all and I'm keeping busy. Gilbert reset his date for May 9 so we are super excited. The Winklers also agreed to get baptized! Hurray! So life is good, hard, but good. I love my mission and I love you all!

Love ya lots,

Sister prows

We went to a whole in wall Mexican restaurant that looked more like a taxidermy shop than a restaurant. It was quite the surprise when we walked in. This wart hog looked really happy to see us
