New Whip, Sick Lyfe

Hola Everyone!

Had a pretty OKAY week this week! We bowled last P-day and went to a train museum, so that was fun. Got to get on a train the John Wayne and Clint Eastwood appeared on in a movie, so that was lit. We also caught another couple of mice and released them. One was by hand (via cage, no rabies don't worry)! I believe we have captured a total of 5 mice in our home, and now the activity has seemed to subsided. We haven't spotted/heard any mice for 3 days and the traps remain empty. We might have killed/relocated all of Stewartess'  posterity, yay!

Our visit to a train museum.

On Wednesday, we did a blitz (an exchange where 4 Elders work in one area) with the Zone Leaders in their area, and we did a ton of service. We help this guy name Dave out who is getting baptised soon by building a huge retaining wall in his front yard and basically totally re-landscaping it. It looks good tho! And now he can focus on his baptism and not his front yard!

Also that day, I taught this cool lady named Val on an Indian Reservation with Elder Clark, my new Zone Leader. We had this Sister in the ward come with us and she told Elder Clark, "I know you are new here, but we usually don't like to come out to the rez past dark. It gets a little .... *whispers* dangerous ... " It was like 4pm and there were a bunch of little kids running around lol. But anyway it was a fun time.

Some other flippin sweet news! We got a new vehicle! A brand new 2K17 Toyota RAV4! That's where all your tithing money goes! But seriously this thing is super nice. And since I got another chance to go on exchanges and drive on Saturday, you know I had to take the thing mudding (don't tell our vehicle coordinator ;)). Anyway, it's a lot of fun to drive and has crazy weird tech in it. Like radar to drive for you and stuff. It's a fun time!

Our new ride, a '17 Rav4. Fresh from a break-in session in the mud!

In other news, I was a little sick this week with some cruddy head cold that I probably got from Elder Clark (thanks a ton). But it's chill, I am overcoming it now after an *almost* unhealthy amount of Nyquil. Yay western Medicine.

Also, we almost got locked out of our house yesterday, so I had to sparta-kick our screen door down, and we were able to get in. And luckily no glass broke! And only minimal frame damage to the screen door! Keys!

Our door after I applied a little foot pressure.

Not much else went on this week. Just got a little trunky cuz of all the May the 4th Star Wars stuff going on. I miss it : (. But mission blessings are better!

Love all you beautiful children of God. Good night!
