What is Dry??

June 25, 2012

You keep speaking of it being dry? What is dry? I am unsure of what that word means...

This week has been a great week! We had a Zone Meeting on Tuesday where I made cupcakes with the Baptism sign on them. (Too hard to explain what that looks like) But I am getting pretty domestic. In all reality though, I just wanted one so I decided to just make some for everyone. We learned a lot more about the basics of helping someone learn how to pray. Then on Wednesday we had new comp training which is ALWAYS fun! And mom, yes, training goes for 12 weeks so THEORETICALLY I will be training Sister VanDyke until the end of August, BUT I am calling it now that I leave at the end of this transfer, (July 10th) I could be wrong though but I think I will be switching places with another trainer just because I have been here for quite some time. But I love this area so I won't mind staying longer.

The gym floor got varnished this week...that was something cool I guess... :) Really it was funny because we had a coordination meeting while the fumes were still there and it turned into one of the funniest meetings ever. They opened the partition during church but the fumes were still bad so they closed it. FUNNY!

So funny story, someone in the ward recently cut his leg pretty bad getting ready for the cycling season and yesterday he showed us the cut. Last week he was limping so that is how we found out. Anywho, we had to leave halfway through the conversation but as we were walking away he said remember to shave properly! Funny part is that he was in the middle of talking to another missionary and that missionary's face was HYSTERICAL!

So Heather is home now! Someone tell that girl to write me a letter. Actually, all three Trottier girls! I don't have their address so I have been ever so patiently waiting for a letter FOREVER NOW! (I refuse to actually figure out how long)

I hope Dave likes those books I sent home for him! They helped me a ton so if he has questions, just ask away! P.S. I talked to President and he said that he doesn't do Skype calls for the opening of the call, but if siblings are going to overlap, before the other goes into the MTC, he will set up a Skype call so we can chat for a second. So, not with the call but before he leaves! If my calculations are correct, he puts them in on July 18th? Am I right? I'm dying with excitement! I keep having dreams that he comes here. HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE!

Also, thanks again for the birthday package! I love the Lex CD! We call him Lex and every P-day we ask if Lex is ready to go too. Yup, we’re cool. But funny part is that when I asked for that song, I had it on my iTunes so I thought you would just give me that song, but I am happy for the whole CD because it is BEAUTIFUL!

Well, I can't really think of much else to update you on this week. We are having some interesting struggles with our investigators right now because they are all interconnected and it gets complicated, but that is for another place and time. :)

I love you all so much and I look forward to hearing from you again! (Award goes to Mom because she was the only one I heard from this week!)
