Hey everyone!
Not a ton of time, I am also emailing at the crack of dawn because we are going to Jasper. :) :) :) :) :) :) this is also the first time I will see mountains since I left the MTC. #blessed
Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BESTEST BEST BEST BEST FRIEND IN THE WORLD, SISTER BLACKBURN. LUD YOU.
Also, happy wedding to my other bestie best friend, HAY HAY HARRIZ, I got your wedding invitation. Sorry, I won't be able to make it. (Sorry I am so dumb, I think I'm hilarious)
this week was very eventual. We got smartphones & Facebook (as most of you have been able to tell) :)
I seriously had the best time because I got to spend not one, but almost 2 FULL days with Sister Blackburn. She's the best ever. I love her.
We also did some crazy tracting, ran into a sign that said, "Jehovah's witness & CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS ARE NOT WELCOME HERE. BEWARE." Yikes. I was like, "we better not knock on that door, they don't seem like the nicest people on the planet."
We also went on exchanges and went tracting and we asked the lady if she knew anyone who needed any help, and she said, "NOT FROM THE MORMONS." To which my unfiltered response was a very surprised & kind of hurt "ohhhhh." Then we walked away, literally I am a ding dong.
Lemme just tell you, having Facebook as a missionary is so nice. I thought it was going to be a huge temptation and that it was just waste a whole bunch of my time as a missionary, but there are legit miracles that come from being obedient to the guidelines. We finally got in contact with our investigators & less-actives that live on the res and we are having a Skype lesson with them tomorrow! Seriously, there are so many blessings that are coming from using technology.
It's also super strange to see my good ol friend Jace Colby on the District 3 because it's just like having my good friend with me all the time. It's crazy. I literally get the giggles every time we watch it because I just think about all the memories that I have with Jace. It's awesome.
This week I have really been so thankful for everything in my life, but especially my Saviour. I get to talk about the best thing ever, every single day, yeah it's awfully scary sometimes telling people that The Book of Mormon is about their ancestors, but I've only had a few bad experiences with that. I love talking to people about what the Saviour has done for them. Jesus Christ extends his arm of mercy towards us & he can save us from any situation we get ourselves into.

Man, I love being a missionary. It's the greatest thing ever.
