"Have a great night! God bless America!"

Oh wow. I love everything.

I am training Sister Hart. She is sooooo awesome. Let me tell you all the awesome things about her. She's from Mesa AZ. She's 5' (tiny like me! although not quite as tiny..) She was a cheerleader so she understands all my tumbling talk! Her favorite fruit is grapefruit. (I'm telling you, we are the same person.) Anyways, she's basically the coolest and I'm pretty pumped to be her trainer. She was baptized in the church when she was 8, but never went until a year and a half ago so she considers herself a convert. She is so much fun to be around and we have had a party this week. She's also really good at finding and has no fear when it comes to talking with people. ahhh It's going to be a good transfer!

My favorite parts of the week were getting Sister Hart, the Relief Society Pizza party, Temple Service, District meeting, getting free froyos (frozen yogurt) because we are bffs with the manager Pierre, and CONFERENCE, Conference lunch in between Saturday sessions at Tijuana Flats, Saturday night Sushi at MiWa with Lacey, Jackie, and Meilin, and Dinner with Brooklynn Sunday night. I also particularly enjoyed contacting people in Walmart as well as contacting in some apartment complex's. Sister Hart has no fear when it comes to talking with people which makes finding SO MUCH FUN! ahh she's the coolest. 

I loved conference this weekend and one thing I loved so much was when Elder Holland said "Do you have any Idea how much we love you?" It just made my heart so full. I learned so much from this conference, one prompting I received while watching conference was actually from the song "there is sunshine in my soul today" I received the prompting that the gospel is sunshine and I have the great calling of giving that sunshine to people's souls. And In order to give it to these people I must show that sunshine through my face. So from that I felt prompted to smile more and to be joyful about my testimony, because what an amazing thing it is that we have Christ's restored gospel and all the blessings that come along with it!

Go share some sunshine.

This week was super duper fun! I am doing really well and am so excited to train Sister Hart. I made her make tweets (on note cards) to teach me the restoration this morning. haha it was a good time. I hope all is well I think I'll finish this email with my out of context quotes from the week. Please enjoy! 


"SATURDAY IS THE DAY I SHINE!"

"My favorite color is yellow and blue..." "Isn't that green?"

"Teancum... we can promise that if you throw your spear straight, you will kill someone."

"Have a great night! God bless America!"

"Where's the rest of the thirds?"

"I have no English in my mouth"

"We know a lot of the same people together."



I love you all more than Isaiah loves to be confusing! Have a wonderful day! I'm going to go eat some ice cream right now. #Blessed
