Hello, wonderful family!
SO this week has been especially slow. With only one investigator, we've been doing a ton of finding activities, mostly trying to coordinate our efforts with the ward. But before I forget, TRANSFER NEWS!!! (Dad, you're always spot on!) I am staying. And Sister Davenport is leaving. I'm kinda nervous because this is my first time leading an area. I hope that I know where things are as well as I think I do! Lol. I probably don't, but oh well! Sister Bingham is going to be my new companion. She is nice and a hard worker, so this is going to be good. (Little does she know, she now gets an hour break in the middle of the day...lol). As far as I can figure though, if I don't get transferred next transfer, I will be in the area for at least 3 more transfers. The reason I have come to this conclusion is because Sister Bingham only has 2 transfers left, and will most likely "die" here. So if I don't leave this next transfer, I probably won't leave the following transfer because otherwise the area would be whitewashed since Sister Bingham is definitely leaving that transfer. So if I stay then I'll probably lead the area with a new companion and then leave maybe after one transfer with them. Which will make 5 transfers in this area = 7.5 months, which is a really long time for a sister to be in one area. Just speculation though. Let's see if I'm right. ;-)

ANYWAY.... I don't have a lot to say...... Things are just slow, especially after baptizing 3 of our 4 investigators.....
Well, to the individuals:
Mom- I remember that lesson! I am thankful for FISH. That was great day. Let Gma and Gpa know that I did get the Birthday card. I will write to them today. I'm glad that they are doing well. Did they send me more than just the birthday card?
Dad- A new car, eh? And a toyota corrola?! That's what we drive! I love it. Not that I drive it, but I do love our car. It does sweet u-turns so that I don't have to get out every 30 seconds to back up the car (Mission rule: The companion of the driver has to direct/guide/back up the car every time we need to back out of something. It's a PAIN.) And it gets good milage (as far as I know). And I just like it. You'll have to let me know what you decide. :-D
Lynz- I'm glad you got to go to Brad Paisley's concert! That must have been fun. If it was anything like David Archuleta's concert where you almost cried a million times, I would have no doubt you did it (again) at Brad Paisley's concert. Did you lose your voice? I am excited for you to start softball. Keep me updated on your games! And use softball as a personal progress something or other if you haven't already. It can count for something! I'm proud of you for doing it!
Eric- Any updates? Love you!
Ok. Well, this was short and sweet. I wish I had more to say, but it's just been one of those weeks...
Hugs and Kisses to all,
Love, Me
