Our zone is super fun. Our zone leaders are a little salty sometimes but other than that its a party! Elder Matua and Holland are just so funny all the time so that's probably why its fun, and of course us sisters are hilarious. I finally went to zone sports this week! we played chair soccer,..my fav... then the dumb elders made us play scatter ball...that game is sooooo dumb! all you do is chuck a ball at everyone...i won 2 out of 3 games though hahaha.
So missionary fail...so 2 of our wards accidentally overlapped our dinner calendars so some nights we had 2 dinners, so we had to cancel one...well on the 10th we didn't realize we had 2 dinners on that night...so we went to the Santa Rita Christmas dinner, then when we got home i was like OMG! so i hurried and checked our calendars and we had another dinner scheduled for that day! and it was already 9:30...so i text the people and they said "yeah we were wondering if y'all were coming because you didn't show up or call"....we were like wow why didn't they call us?? so now we feel bad..eeeekkkk!
OHHH my goodness! So Ashton (our 8 year old) just MELTS my heart! the last time we taught him we told him to read some of the Book of Mormon and pray to know if it is true. So yesterday we saw him at church and he was SO excited to tell us that he read and prayed, then he said he had a dream that Heavenly Father said yes its true! i seriously was CRYING! he is so awesome! i just want him to be adopted so he can be baptized! he wants it SO bad!
Jim is doing so good! seriously I'm so proud of the members in that ward! they love him so much! they invite him for dinners, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and everything! you can just tell how happy he his! So hes x girlfriend that invited him to church a LONG time ago in high school, her son was 14 year old Joseph Smith in the movie The Restoration, so she knows the producers and stuff, and one of them said that they want to make a movie out of Jims crazy life story! hes So excited!
SO Sister Farrer and I SWORE we witnessed a kidnapping at the Mesa Temple Lights..so we were just chilling minding our own business, then we see this crazy lady come sneak (literally sneak) up on this little boy standing by himself, and she comes up behind him and covers his mouth being SUPER creepy! seriously we were frozen we had no idea what to do or say...and her and her husband left with the kid...so we follow them to see what the heck they are doing and then we talked to them..i don't even know what they were saying, we just felt SO gross about it, so we told one of the hosts and he was not having it..he was like well did they do anything bad? we were like uhhh no? he was like so what do you want me to do? we were like uhhhh i don't know? make sure they didn't just kidnap that kid???? so then he was getting all worked up and stood up and was ohhh yeah i know how to handle these kind of situations! we were like ohhhh boy...he was probably about 70 years old..he was like take me to them! we thought we were going to die because we just tattled on this crazy random couple so we showed him then ran away... then we thought they were out to get us and we kept seeing them so we were running away from these people alllll night!
But on the bright side, we have been getting self referrals from the Temple Lights! ( did you know the Mesa Temple is 1 out 5 Temples in the world that are authorized to do Christmas lights?!) Kenny is one of the self referrals. he has taken some of the lessons before but was pretty flaky. but last night they told us that they are really happy we are their missionaries because we are funny lol! they didn't like the last missionaries they had. But they are awesome! we put him on date for January 21st! we hope he will stick with that! we all had a really good bonding time too haha! we found out that the wife Heidi and her sister Ashley both went to the same Elementary school! they are both my age so we had the same friends and stuff! so that was good! now i think they like me even more! But DUDE the lesson we taught them last night sucked! like it was horrible! we forgot to set expectations, and im an IDIOT and forgot to talk about Joseph Smith! hahaha it was SO FUNNY! so we had to somehow bring that back in and it was just a mess! but they didn't even notice because Heavenly Father saw we were doing a horrible job and helped us out and made them feel the spirit haha!
life has been good! its been fun!
