my Halloween weekend

hey fam!! sounds like you all had a rockin' halloween :) i want to see pics of all the costumes! james' costume sounds adorable. and mom and dad, the "big pimpin' award" huh? that's impressive haha. we couldn't dress up obviously but here are some pics of our orange and black outfits for the day :)



the other pics are:
*me with tia johnson the day she got her mission call! she's the bishop's daughter (abby's age) and she goes teaching with us all the time. i just adore her and now she's going to the japan fukuoka mission in march! her mom is japanese and she's already fluent so she'll jump right in. it was fun to watch her open her call...brought back lots of memories from mine! her little brother is going to brazil and they report the same day. fun huh?


*now this weird fuzzy picture is to capture the worst day ever hahahaha. we had 5 appointments cancel in a row, including 3 church tours with new investigators. so we went to visit a less active woman who breeds westies...she has 9 dogs. they were ALL over us and i was COVERED in dog hair. that's what the picture is of...me covered with dog hair (even though you can't really tell) holding up 5 fingers for our 5 cancelled appointments. no worries though, we had a really great lesson with [D] that night...the spirit was strong and we got to the root of a lot of her concerns...it was AWESOME! that's totally how the mission...one little success overshadows 100 disappointments :)


i'm going to send another email with pictures of our zone pumpkin carving last preparation day...
