| The Great Bishop Laundry Room Flood of November 2015 |
....and then this woman lets herself into our house with 10 people :D and that's how we found out that our apartment is apparently for sale :D What a time to be alive! Many phone calls were made and we came to the conclusion that no one knows what they're doing when it comes to selling, which is why no one told us about it.
BUT there was the Primary Program at church (when the little children sing and give talks) and I cried 4 times. There's just something about hearing the simple testimonies of kids that hits me hard.

We've been noticing that whenever we're teaching someone the restoration, something distracting ALWAYS happens when we bring up Joseph Smith. Either a dump truck comes by, kids start screaming, it starts raining, the phone rings, or we get attacked by their pet. The adversary's working really hard to break the spirit but HE LOSES! HA!!

We are teaching 7 people with baptismal dates, but its just really hard to get them to come to church here... I had a migraine for a few days but I chugged a ton of diet coke and its gone!!
Anyways, all of our investigators are sick with the cold of flu. So it's been hard trying to meet with them, but that's just Satan trying to push back their baptisms! He will not prevail! He was working really hard this week actually. Out of the 4 missionaries, Sister Wheeler was the only one who didn't get sick. But the spirit's been extremely strong nevertheless! We found a new investigator, Tyler, and he's so prepared and willing to learn more! Not to mention he's so dang polite, and he actually responds to our texts which is unheard of in this town.
It was 60s this week but today is in the 40s :p

We tried to make stroganoff this week but didn't know how, so it turned into a gray nasty mess; so that was fun! We tried kettle corn but it burned.

We were on the reservation here when a nearby cow escapes and starts charging to our car. This 12 year old boy Luis says, "I'm on it!" and just chases that cow like a pro. He manages to chase it back to the fence, where it hopped back over the broken part and we struggled to get that barbed wire back up high enough to do its job. Thankfully it didn't do any damage, I'm not sure how I could have explained to the Mission President without laughing why our car was smashed. Typical day on the reservation.
I don't see too many animals here, lots of horses and cows and dogs and cats (a bunch are wild). I've seen one raccoon and smelled a skunk, but it's not bad! Lots of birds here, too.
But I just finished 2 Nephi and DANG IT'S GOOD! It reminded me of all the tender mercies the Lord has given us and how the Book of Mormon truly is the word of God and can help us build our relationship with the savior! I'm so grateful for all the love I feel from the people here, my family back home and my Heavenly Father, who is SO mindful of us all the time! I LOVE THIS GOSPEL!!
