SPAM-bled eggs

Wow... This week has been SPAM PACKED...hehehe get ready for an e-mail full of Spam puns. 

Anywho, Monday was interesting.  None of the Sisters had a car so we had no way to get anywhere so.... 2.5 hour nap!! Then we made puzzles for FHE and I normally hate puzzles and It wasn't even that bad! I normally hate Puzzles... then because of Thanksgiving we got transfer calls early... I'M LEAVING WAH!!!! I was soooo bummed to leave right before the Holidays. #NO!!  I am with Sister B and we are whitewashing the Grand Valley ward in Grand Rapids.   We took over for some Elders and the ward is PUMPED to have sisters.

So Tuesday was full of good-byes and sad stuff, #don'tmakemego!  but we had one last lesson with H and.... SHE'S ON DATE!!! Yay!! She wants to be baptized December 31st!! Yay!! 

Wednesday I left in the morning SAD STUFF!! So we went to Grand Valley and we are taking after Elders, so we are whitewashing... and we got to our apartment and we got a sneak peak at how the other half lives.... SO MUCH SPAM!!! It was ridiculous! I do not understand why the apartment has so much spam.... so we decided to try it out because neither of us have had spam, so we made SPAM-bled eggs... slightly weird, but not.  I will try to send pics.  It was an adventure.  So we had no idea where to begin so we did lots of phone calls and went to visit some less actives.  We met a super cool recent convert newly wed couple! They are so cool!!

Thursday we met a cool guy at Mcdonals where we were meeting a member and he was interested in learning more about the Gospel... so that was cool!! We door knocked into this adorable old man and He invited us back to have a lesson the next day, he was so cute!!

Friday was a miracle day... we needed rides to all of our lessons because it was carfast day (hehe didn't miss those on campus)  and we found a ride to all 3 of them!! And the members were nice enough to come to two of them!! One was Tresa, an investigator the Elders found who wants to be baptized but is working on quitting smoking and So it was good meeting her and we were so blessed to have rides.  One of our lessons was with a less active and she gave us a ride, but it was POURING rain so we had to take shelter in Lowes and we tried to talk to people about the gospel there, it was a little challenging. But hey, as long as we are trying to be productive

Saturday was SPAM-TASTIC It snowed and was freezing so we listened to Christmas music to warm our hearts (tee hee)  It worked.  And we went to go visit a referral who lived in the Middle of Nowhere so we door knocked around there and it was so cool because there was this guy we who let us in to have a lesson (His Mom was there) and we taught the Resto and he LOVED it!! He said he felt like he had only been given half a birthday cake instead of the whole thing!! So... that was cool AND to make it better he wants to be baptized!!! IT WAS SUCH A MIRACLE we weren't even sure if it was real life.  His name is Aaron and he is legit.  He called us sweet a@# messangers... we may have to work on language?

I have no Idea what the Spam happened yesterday... we went to church for the sacrament... and then they cancelled the rest of church because the toilets where backed up....?  So so much for meeting all the ward, whatever. We also had Thanksgiving Pizza at a members house?  Not bad... but I am sick of eating... the ward feeds us way too well.  The ward is so great and welcoming though! Well, this is a super long e-mail... and that's about all I have to say.  But I know that this work is inspired, sometimes I have no Idea how God works but I know he is real and works through the spirit.

Fun Fact:  Grand Rapids is the anti-mormon literature capital of the world or something.... so that's nice.  Bring on the refiners fire!!

Love you all have a great Thanksgiving!! Still enjoying the pants and the tape from last year.
