I'll be living the movie RIO in 9 days..





Dear Family 

Honesty not a whole lot to say this week other than it was chill. This will be one of my lamer emails. So I apologize in advance but stay tune for next week bc ill be in the amazing land of BRAZILLLL... TO SAY I AM EXCITED IS AN UNDERSTATMENT. Im so happy to leave the MTC. Ahaha I usually write throughout the week experiences I want to share but nothing super crazy happened. at least nothing i can share on here.... hehehehe JUST TEASING ofc.. but seriously I forgot to write about it. I am constantly so busy and the days start to just kind of blend together its hard to keep track of time and everything that happened.

But just regular classes and lots of really good devotionals and we always do a testimony meeting afterwards and that is probably my favorite part of the whole week. The spirit is so strong and everyone in my district speaks with so much power and insight!! 

Ok so I have a quote book of funny things people have said or i have overheard and i thought I would share some of my favorites with yall. And ill be so honest 90% of them are said from one of my favorite people I've ever met elder Reynolds! He never fails to make me laugh or smile. He's a cowboy from Idaho and lets just say he has no filter in the best way possible ahahaha. He makes things lighthearted and fun and where the days are repetitive and hard. I really REALLY appreciate and love his humor! 


My journal is basically a hate book on everyone- elder Reynolds 

You brought 5 lassos? What are you gonna do with them? (Sister hoover ) ..... rope the little brown kids - elder Reynolds 

You cant be a loser if you never let yourself lose- Elder Reynolds 

Well you remind me of a tadpole- sister hoover

You just said i feel your sister..... - Imrã mckee 

Yeahhhhh i got cheated on.. - random elder walking past in the laundry room 


Sorry if any of these offend any of you and if you dont laugh.. you obviously dont have elite Humor. 

Any who! I genuinely love being a missionary even though it is very hard! ( mainly just language). But i know what i am doing is right and true. IM SO GRATEFUL for this gospel and for what it has blessed and given me in my life. I may not be the best speaker at Portuguese but i will Not let that stop me from saying what I know to be true. 
Love you all !!! Please reach out to me, love hearing from everyone :) 💓

  Song of the week- joy by post malone  https://photos.app.goo.gl/ 3XbRZ9tgSZpoDPZz9 ^^^^ photos Weekly  E AÍ gente? Tudo bem??    We started this week off with divisions. We put all four twin mattress together and slept all 6 of us....... that was an experience slept like that for 3 days. Lets just say the rule in the missionary handbook about sleeping in your OWN bed is a rule for a reason.    Divisions itself if im being so honest didnt learn anything new. I had fun tho, the STLS are super nice, but I was also the one leading everything which normally when the STLS are here they are the ones leading becuase we are trying to learn from them ( from my past experience)...... so i was stressing pretty hard when we walked into the first lesson and we all sat in literal silence for about 3 mintues because she was giving me the look of death to speak and start the lesson, but my brain was trying to português and it wasn't portuguêsing and I ended up saying...
