Funny: We had a lesson at The Grow's house, they just barely moved into the ward from BYU Provo, and they have a little baby. They are awesome! They are so missionary minded. The week they moved in we had a lesson at their house! On their missions in Peru and Mexico. They played this game called cat and mouse, which involves tying and untying ties around your neck really fast, and it is a lot more fun than it sounds. They decided to make the lesson, a little family home evening thing, so there were delicious treats, and a game. It was one of the most fun lessons I have had! Also, spring is finally here! and we picked some flowers/weeds for our apartment!

Spiritual: This week was an emotional one. I'm kind of an emotional person anyways, but this week a bit more than normal. We are preparing for Annie's baptism this weekend, and we are so excited for her! I feel so deeply connected to all the people we are teaching. I truly genuinely love them, and am so grateful I have gotten to know them! Annie has been through so much, and I am so grateful to be able to see the great changes and the joy that has been brought into her life by preparing to be baptized. I really do love her like family. I feel this week I more fully understand the covenant that I have made to mourn with those that mourn and comfort those that stand in need of comfort. I'm just very grateful that I get to be here on my mission!

Where I'm at: This week was transfers, and Sister Thompson and I are staying together again in Fargo!!!! This will be our third transfer together, and I am so excited! The work is going so great, and we get along so well, I'm so glad we get one more together. Fargo is such a great area, I never thought I would love living in the city, but when there is this much work, I love it!!!
