Week 10 - Don't Worry It Was A Dog

Camri had a good week. I don't know how 4 sisters are living together in that tiny apartment. Does her success and relationships that she is making surprise anyone?..me neither.
Don’t forget to check out her blog as well as the blog of the mission. Lots of great pictures.

                                                                                                                        
What up what up?
Another week down in the books! Sooo transfers happened on Wednesday and 2 sisters moved in with us.  And its been exactly how I said it would be... interesting.  Haha we don't have all 4 desks yet because we're still trying to figure out if we can get a bunk bed.  Other wise desks won't fit.  Also, 4 girls getting ready in the morning at the same time with one bathroom is tough, but hey, we're making it work! Its all good! The sisters names are sis. Crooksten from Snowflake AZ, and Sister Rose from Bryce Canyon.  They're super sweet! Although, they're kind of quiet and me and Sis. Wadman are anything but quiet! So I bet they think we're crazy... but thats okay because we are.
Its been a little stressful splitting the area and trying to tell them about all of the investigators in the area and things like that.  But a little stress doesn't hurt every once in a while.
We saw Joey and Annette again! But Annette didn't feel too good so our lesson was pretty short.  But they fed us pizza so thats a plus! We're going back tomorrow :)
Lol so yesterday when we were tracting we met this man named Emanuel.  We started talking and he invited us to come back this week.  He said his work schedule is a little crazy though.  So sister Wadman was lik, "oh where do you work?" And he works at the POT FARM! hahaha I was like "Hey, whatever pays the bills right?" Gosh I love people.
Remember Don I told yall about last week? Kilt guy? Well he came to church again! Hes almost finished with the book of Alma so hes making great progress.  We have a lesson with him on Wednesday and we're going to invite him to be baptized! Hahaha but funny story about him.  So he freaking lovessss his dogs.  And he told me in sacrament meeting that one of his dogs got ran over by his friend on monday.  I guess the leash got tangled up in the tire.  He was pretty sad about it.  But he said that he prayed for peace and feels better.  Heres the funny part: So me and Sis. Wadman taught the lesson in Gospel Principles (We do that a lot when the teacher cant) , and the lesson was on sacrifice.  Well Don decided to start out class by telling the story about his dog getting killed.  The thing is, he started off by calling his dog his "little girl".  This was his story: I was talking with my friend out front and then my friend got in his car to leave.  I heard a noise that sounded like this *made a weird noise* and then i saw my little girl lying on the ground with a crushed head.  Her nerves were shot and she was just shaking.  I didn't know what to do.  My little girl was just bleeding out on the road, and I couldn't help her. 
I was at the front of the classroom and so i could see the faces of the other people in the class... and since they didn't know he was talking about a dog their faces looked a bit surprised... I WAS FREAKING DYING! Holy crap I was gonna bust a gut. AND THEN! The lesson starts off by talking about the Law of Moses and the sacrifice of animals.  hahaha Sis. Wadman and I couldn't make eye contact because we were both thinking the same thing.  Don't worry though, he explained after telling the story that she got ran over because of her leash getting tangled in the tire.  At that point, I'm sure everyone assumed the story had been about a dog.  OH MY HECK people are so awesome.
Interviews with the Pres are tomorrow so I'm sure more pics will show up on the blog :) Oh yeah, I went to Doctrine of Christ on Thursday.  Its for missionaries in their second transfer.  It was so so so good! And the Holy Ghost was totes there testifying it up. 
I read a conference talk everyday and the other day I read one that said something I really liked! So I like to ask a lot of questions.  And in high school, i always felt guilty for having questions about the gospel.  I thought it meant i was doubting my testimony.  BUT! The talk said that questions are good.  In fact, questions are vital to our spiritual growth.  Just because we have questions, doesn't mean we are doubting.  When we have a question, we should see ourselves as seekers, rather than doubters.  Have questions and seek for understanding :)
Anyways! Good times down here in Moses Lake! This was a great decision.  Love all of you!!
