such a good last week!!

Well people. My mission is actually over. SO SAD! But I had the best last week ever! It seriously has been so much fun!

We had like 3 lessons with Sean and Sister Lewis before I had to leave haha! They are SO sweet and got us a super nice gift! Sean seriously is so amazing and has just soaked up this gospel. He loves it so much! Yesterday at church he got the priesthood and it was soooooo awesome! Everyone in the ward loves him SO much! Hes literally golden. Like, he was the type of gator that would set up his own lessons, and set up his own fellowship hahah! it was so funny! Im going to miss them SO MUCH!

The other day we had 2 appointments to take our gators to the mesa visitors center! it was SO FUN! so we taught the restoration and then went into the theater room and watched the 20 min resto video! when we were with Andrew and Nicole, after the video we went outside to show them the temple, and we turned around to go back in the visitors center we see the GREASIEST old couple just making out right in front of the big window wall thing! and it was at night time, and they were the only ones sitting in there...and they were just freaking making out! and yall should have seen Andrew and Nicoles face hahahah!!! we were like uhhhh maybe lets go in the other way it was so funny! but mostly disgusting!

Friday morning all the departing missionaries got to go to the temple for the last time on our missions. it was so awesome though! So we got some pics and went to the temple with President and Sister Wheeler! Then Sister Sperry and I had a skype lesson with Hiro and Sister Ogawa!!! it was the best thing of my life oh my goshhhh!!! its sad they are all the way in Japan, but its all good ): anyways, so we skyped on Saturday, but it was Sunday there for them, so they went to church together and went into another room so we could have a lesson with them! we were over at Gunnars house to skype from his phone, and he made us Japanese food for dinner haha! It was so weird just seeing them in Japan...across the world...idk it was just so weird, because they were here...and now theyr'e there...idk trippy stuff. Anyways. im excited to harass them when i get home so i can talk to them whenever!

So saturday we had a super fun service! our whole zone went, and Sister Sperry and I got the best booth they had! we got to play with these ratchet life size dinosaurs hahah! it was so funny! all the kids were FREAKING out!

Sunday was the best day of my lifeeee! We went to church and it was so sad to say bye to everyone!! I love everyone in this area and ive only been here 6 weeks lol! But then we had dinner with the Brays. They are some of the best humans in the world, and im so glad they were my last dinner appointment! Then someone had a little open house going home party for me and they had me invite peeps from my old areas and stuff and it was so fun!!! This mission seriously has been the best thing for my life! I love all the people and areas and everything that made me a better person!

Tonight we have the departing missionary FHE and dinner with the Wheelers and the Lowders! im soooo excited for that!

This has just been such an amazing (and super hard) journey, but im SO thankful for this opportunity God gave me. I know 100% that God lives and that Christ is our Savoir. Im so thankful that I know that Christ set up His perfect church on the earth, and that it still stands today because we have Prophets, Apostles, the Priesthood and the fullness of His Gospel! I know that the Book of Mormon is a witness of all of that! My life without this gospel would be so sad and so empty! I LOVE this gospel so much and nothing can replace the joy that it brings to everyone who accepts it!

SEE YOU TOMORROW!
