September 12, 2016 "Freakin Carrot"

Zone Conference was this week! I love Zon Con. I get to see all my favorite missionaries. A bunch of new Elders came in this last transfer and one of them in my district is Elder Redd. He is Nate's age and he reminds me a lot of him actually. It's fun. He also looks like a mini version of the other Elder Redd. I think it's hilarious. We had to take a pic.

Found this monster carrot amongst all the other baby carrots. #blessed #miracles #Iknowmyfatherlivesandlovesmetoo

Sister Moody and I are killin it here in Stanwood. We are finding so many people to teach! Wooo! We have a baptism for a family we have been teaching on Saturday. Many pics next week! 

This whole email is pretty much going to be just stupid pics Sister Moody and I took. Im sorry. I'm just a missionary and we do the same stuff all the time. Pray, eat, teach, pray, eat, teach, pray, eat teach. It's the best.

I call this one "Circa 2007-Myspace"

One of the people we are teaching fed us chicken and waffles with her homemade butter pecan sauce. I LOVE HER. She is the funniest woman in the world.  I call this one "Love on a plate"

​We have exciting news!!! Sister Moody and I had our first bunny!

​We are so proud to announce our perfect little family is complete. SO much love.

Sister K saved the day and killed this DISGUSTING ANIMAL that was hovering over my BED. The adversary is just too good sometimes. 

This week we started lookin around town for some volunteer opportunities here in Stanhood. We heard about the local Lutheran church getting together with a bunch of churches around here to feed dinner to the homeless or anyone in need every Thursday night. We thought we would check it out and see if we could help. We got there and everyone was so nice. There were a lot of different people of different faiths there. One of the ladies in the Lutheran church was hilarious. She saw us and screamed "WE HAVE GIRLS NOW??!!" She brought us around to everyone there and kept telling everyone how cool it was that there are girl missionaries in Stanwood now. We helped with cleaning up and things and then she asked if we would like to see the sanctuary. This Lutheran church has been in Stanwood for a while and it has beautiful stained glass everywhere. We were so excited. She gave us a tour and it was so funny because she would be like "here, take a seat here". Or "here, take a bible and a hymnal" or "here, take a registration sheet". haha it was hilarious. Good people. I love it here.

We also started volunteering at the local thrift store down the street and we found some real treasures. 

1. "Peace, Love, Penguins." (Don't push me, cuz I am close to da edge..)

2. "Fancy Nancy"

3. "Camp Rock Wannabes"

4. "Hillary 4 President 2k16"

Found this car sticker the other day. #DieHardDisciples

​Well. That's all folks! I am seriously in love with my mission. Every day is a blast. I am so so happy because all I get to do right now is share the gospel with everything that breathes. Love you all!

Love,

Your Die Hard Disciple
