Stoopid emoticon subject line. You're welcome.

My week was good. No fantastic stories or funny experiences. Just being and doing my favorite thing. A brief overview of the week:

-Got yelled at and a door slammed in our face by a "member". That sounds really bad, but it was just kind of funny. I used to take things so personally but I don't really care anymore haha. They'll get the truth of the gospel someday.

-Went to the Spanish area on an exchange with our Spanish speaking zone leaders. Totally different world and culture over there! Plus amazing food!!! I'm proud of myself too, I was able to understand most of the Spanish somehow, so thanks Spanish 1,2 and Alma (my friend who I used to speak Spanish with)

-Met with an inactive guy, became best friends with him and had him come out to a lesson with us. That was probably the coolest part of the week. He was super spiritual and the Less active lady came to church because of him!

-taught the restoration to this Baptist dude who just cussed the entire time we were there.(good cussing though, like not mad at us, just like slang/ trying to be a gangster)

-Met Mandi, a woman who used to have missionaries over when she used to live in Idaho. So we'll be over there this week!

-Had another sweet lesson with our young men's leader at an inactive families house. We invited the son to come and get the priesthood and stressed the fact of how the young men need him. It was cool and the Spirit was strong. Yet again another testament of the power of members. None of that would've been possible without him there.

-Made best friends with a young mom who straight up told us the last time we went over in a mean way that "she's not into the whole Jesus thing". Well we didn't talk about Jesus and the spirit was still there. Plus she opened up to us and now likes being around us. Take that Satan.

-Had a sweet district council, our district is bomb.

It was a good week! Lot's of exciting little miracles too but I'll save those for things to share after this is all said and done. I truly love the little things God gives us, looking for those things instills a brightness of hope and faith for the future and for now. I've learned that is true happiness. Elder Uchtdorf nails this in his talk, "A Summer with Great Aunt Rose" (yeah it's a women's session talk, women's session is awesome). I've been striving to really seek out those little things and keep a faith that there are good things to come and make the best out of any situation I'm in. 

Love you all!
