Hi Everyone!
 
So this week has been good but very stressful... its good for me though. We are teaching tons of people in our zone, we have the most investigators haha. We have more dates for baptism in our district and we get calls from the district asking how in the world are you doing so good?? I am just like, I have no idea, its not us it is all God's work. We are just here helping duh. We have 2 kids getting baptized which I am so excited about, they are so smart and I love them. They read the Book of Mormon 30 mins a day and pray too. They are Matty and Tyler's age, I want the best for them so much. They live in a bad area which scares me almost everyday, there parents want to move and I don't blame them. They have so many shootings and gangs there. One time we went there to teach and we were walking across the street and this black car passed us and its hecka dark. We couldn't see in and then he backs up to us and we are like great we are going to get shot or kidnap... Well it ended up being a cop and he said did you hear gun shots? Did you just get here? And we were like what?? He said you need to get in to a house because there has been shootings going on. We were like ummmm okay.. Yeah we ran to our lesson as fast as we can haha. But the kids will be baptized this Saturday which I am so happy for, they are so ready.
 
We are teaching this other family who are awesome, they like fell out of the sky. We were looking for someone and my companion walked up this drive way to see if this house was it. A girl came out and said can I help you? We said oh we are just looking for someone but we end up teaching her instead and gave her a Book of Mormon. She has been reading it and we have been teaching her and her husband and they are so ready for this in their lives. We don't know how God put us there but he needed us at that time in that area to find her and teach her. She said she has been praying for something and then here you are, you helped me find what I was missing. My companion and I were like wow! It is amazing how people are so ready to hear the gospel.
 
Then we are teaching some other people and it has been crazy. They either think I am there baby or honey and I am like NO I AM NOT! Gosh it sucks sometimes being a girl! I was trying to set a time to see this guy to teach him and he was flirting with me. He said what are you going to bring me?? I said the gospel because you seem like you need it right now! I keep telling myself they are God's children and to love them, I just get done getting hit on by old guys.
 
My companion and I are good, the only thing that gets hard is that we are soooooooooo alike that we butt heads and if one is angry with the other one we don't talk about it. It sucks for me because I have to act like the adult and say okay we need to talk about this because I know she wont bring it up. We need to because if we don't the spirit is not there and it drives me crazy. But so far we are doing good.
 
Transfers is on the 29th, I will let you know what happens. Oh by the way things have changed here, I have big news! I will be taking over my facebook again but only for mission work here. They told us we will be getting ipads and that we need to teach people on the internet so just so you know not to go on my facebook anymore.
 
I have been good for the most part, I got a bad cold and its getting worse which sucks. I am dealing with it hoping I get better soon. Yes I did get the stickers, I loved them thank you!! 
 
I love you all and hope you are all doing good. I will write you more next week and that you will see more of me because I will be writing a lot on facebook about  mission work everyday. Okay love you bye!
