Transfers!!!

What the heck guys. I'm getting transferred MY LAST TRANSFER! my life is so crazy hahaha. BUT.... I already know where I'm going and who I'm getting! We had interviews with president and he just told me everything lol! He's so funny! It might not happen, but this is 99.9% going to happen! So I will still be in the same zone, and I will literally be in the next stake over.....with SISTER SPERRY!!!!!! AHHHH I'M SO EXCITED! And that would mean I would be in the Ferguson's ward!!! Im actually pretty stoked because a couple transfers ago, I was having the roughest time and I was deciding if I would go home early in the January transfer or my normal  February transfer...i was literally done with life so I was leaning towards January (I would be home tomorrow if I decided January.. scary!) But one day I was praying about it to see if that's what I really needed to do and y'all, the way I receive answers to prayers is so funny! I swear it's ALWAYS through music! Literally Stay by Rihanna was stuck in my head right after I prayed....the part where she's like "I want you to sttttttaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy" so I was like uggggghhhhh no why??? And Heavenly Father let me know he wanted me to stay my whole time because my last transfer would be the best transfer I have had and that I would be SO happy and have so much fun! And now i know i will be with sister Sperry and it will be so awesome! The only thing I'm stressing about is that she's an STL, and usually STLs are in companionships...so I'm praying for somehow I won't have to be an STL my last transfer, bc honestly that's too much work for a last transfer!! There's already so much you have to do your last transfer anyways...but God knows what He's doing so I trust him!!!

     Also, shout out to my uncle Greg for taking me and my comp out for dinner! Thank you soooooo much! You're freaking hilarious and we still talk about how fun that was! Greg has literally seen me in the very beginning of my mission, the middle, and the very end of my mission! And he saved my butt and probably took 2 suitcases and a carryon worth of crap back to Vegas so I didn't have to figure out a way to get it there myself hahahaha!!! But seriously thanks for everything Greg!!!

     I swear the funniest things happen to Sister Preston...we were at dinner with a cute fam in our ward...and the girls were kind of crazy, and one of them is getting potty trained right? So shes just running around half naked, but anyways we sit down on the couch and half way through our dinner message I feel sis Preston keep moving around and she's like scooting closer to me and I'm like dude what's going on with ya?? Lol and finally we are done and leave their house and sis Preston is freaking out and is like omgosh dude literally we have to go home right now and I'm like uhhh why? HOMEGIRL SAT IN A HUGE PUDDLE OF PEE ON THE COUCH!!! Hahahahaha I was so weak!!! Her dress was SOAKING wet! And it smelled soooo bad!! 

     Oh. My. Gosh. Saturday was the best day ever. So Jacob our recent covert just kills me. He invited us to go to the temple with him for his first time! It was soooooo awesome! He's just so sweet and he was SO excited!! He's so presh. Then he took us to Hen House Cafe and it was SO fun!!! OH. Then Sunday, we walk into our ysa ward and I see Jacob and Anthony sitting in the front with the peeps that pass the sacrament and I FREAKED out and ran over to them and basically harassed them jk jk but I was so excited for them to pass the sacrament! So they start passing the sacrament and Jacob goes up and passes it to Bishop Lake and Bishop just looks over at me and we both just start crying hahaha! It was so awesome tho, we are just so proud of these boys! And Anthony got his temple recommend so now he's super excited to go too! But I was having a moment at church, watching them pass the sacrament... i was just so flipping emotional. I was thinking of all the crazy hard times of my mission, and not even caring about that because just seeing the happiness of Anthony and Jacob with the Priesthood, and them going to the temple was enough for me. One happy moment like that on a mission makes up for 17 hard months of my mission. That's why you got to just keep going even when things are hard, because something seriously awesome will make up for it. 

     Also, I have still been doing the Jesus Christ topical guide challenge! I'm on the Atonement right now...i have learned so much. Seriously, just feeling the love Christ had for us as he bore our sins is amazing. Jesus Christ is this all powerful God, that has power over earth and the heavens and everything plus more. And he submitted Himself to trials of mortality, temptation, hunger, thirst, pain of body, and fatigue even more than man can suffer. He didnt have to go through that because of who He is...but He did, because of who He is. Because He loves us so much, and wanted us to have a way to repent and live with Him and God again, He went through everything no one could imagine. I am just so eternally grateful for the Atonement of Christ. And I'm SO thankful that Christ loved me enough to suffer a moment there for me. So seriously, everyone that reads this should do the Jesus Christ topical guide challenge because I can promise that you will learn how to draw the power of Christ more into your life!!!
