Hey everyone,

This was a fun week! LOTS of meetings with it being the first week of the transfer, but fun nonetheless.

Monday we ate lunch at Velvet Taco with our District which was pretty fun, I got the Brisket taco! We also played some frisbee, and then unfortunately got it stuck in tree. We then proceeded to also get a baseball, a baseball bat, another frisbee, and a football stuck in the same tree while trying to knock down the frisbee haha
In the evening we went out with Luke, and drove out to the boonies of the Heath ward with him, it was pretty fun.

Tuesday Elder Gamett and I spent the whole morning working on the SPR report report, which I always enjoy! We also had our ride for the evening cancel, so we frantically started calling people and luckily Harrison (the first person we called) said he could take us! So we went to dinner with him, and then had a lesson at the Davis' home and a lesson with Robert! At the Davis' they have a GIANT puppy that just bites into your arm and just holds it in his mouth like a bone if you aren't careful. The majority of the lesson was spent pushing him away from us haha

On Wednesday we had District council, and ate at In-n-out. We were able to talk to a nice Hispanic couple who were interested in the Book of Mormon there which was cool! We also went out with Brother Thurgood, and met some cool people in the evening.

On Thursday we had mission conference, and then did weekly planning. After that we went and sat on the balcony of the Rockwall Library and worked on the Zone Plan while it poured and stormed. Super fun to watch! In the evening we went out with Alex, and had an in-depth Plan of Salvation lesson with Kaity Madrid! Alex also got us Chick-fil-A afterwards, and I tried one of the salads which was pretty good. We also had a call with the DLs and set a spiritual commitment for April, and I finally got my way and we made it very low (we made it 2 haha), so now maybe this Zone will actually achieve their spiritual commitment for the first time EVER

Friday we after MLC we went out with President Bush, and had some cool member lessons! One of which was with the Cranes, and we had a great discussion about finding joy and happiness with them. We also taught the Stewarts and I took a picture with their Porsche 911!!

On Saturday Brother Stewart picked us up in his Camero and took us to have an amazing breakfast at their house! We Potatoes, sausage, gravy, onions, peppers, cheese, and (If you aren't me) eggs with fresh Raspberries! After breakfast we did service at the thrift store. In the evening Nick came down from McKinney and we went out with him up to Greenville!! We also had another awesome lesson with Robert, and he asked a lot of good questions such as what habits should he form to become more disciplined and closer to God!

Sunday we had an encounter with my favorite bishop, but other than that it was pretty normal. Nothing too exciting, although Jack came to church as usual and I got called up to bear a surprise testimony haha
