Hey my family!! This week has been an awesome one, but also a crazy and really hard one. I'm glad to hear that everyone is healing up pretty well and I am excited to see the awesome new tv in the basement! I love and miss you so much! It has been a pretty wild week this week. We had about 27 people at Church this week and only like 2 of them were visitors so we were pretty excited! Also Alisha finally came to church! We were super excited! I was sitting next to Elder Nelson (the Senior couple one) getting ready to pass the sacrament and he looked at me and started fist pumping and just grinning from ear to ear...it was one of the happiest moments of my life. This week has also been pretty tough and crazy. One of the Elders that I live with had to go home for a couple weeks for surgery and it was really sad to see him go. He is one of my best friends and I hope that all goes well. We have been running him to doctors appointments, getting phone calls from everybody, and trying to mellow him out from all of his nerves about leaving all week. We are ready for a nap. haha We dropped him off at the airport this morning, and then we spent p-day in New Orleans helping everyone cheer up a little bit. I am excited and very humbled this week. We are going to be teaching a lot of Spanish lessons and my Spanish is no bueno, so we could use your prayers. I am hanging in there, a little bit tired and beat up but I was raised a fighter like my mama. I know that everyone is really busy and I am really bad at writing back but I could use a little extra prayer or a little pick me up in the mail if you have time. I don't want to lose any steam, I love being a missionary so much! I hope you have an awesome week!!! Thanks for all you do!!! Love Mud :) For Christmas just some razor blades and some more mega reds, thanks!
