well hey fam!

turns out i have a few minutes to email. i am EXHAUSTED haha. i was exhausted from the week already and then we walked around seattle for 6 hours. so worth it though, so fun! but yeah i'm just exhausted because the work is going so well! which is so good. [E] is getting baptized this saturday! her interview is tonight and she is just solid. what an amazing woman. she's 17, had the hardest life in north carolina and made the decision to move up here to live with her aunt because she wanted to change her life. we all know the gospel is the best way to change lives! i just adore her. [B] needs to be interviewed by president moffat, so his date is up in the air right now. what a sweetheart though. he collects postage stamps and since we always admire them he gave us some to start our own collections :) he's been taught by missionaries for YEARS and is finally progressing. he hasn't smoked for a week and a half!! [P] is also scheduled to be baptized a few days after christmas!! she has had such a hard life and is just the smartest kid. so hilarious though. "[P], how did you like primary?" "it was pretty good...EXCEPT! they called me to the front of the room, and then they all sang this CREEPY song and pointed at me!" ...the hello song. hahaha hilarious. so yeah the work is crazy busy.

sister burch is crazy awesome. i just adore the people here so it's awesome to be back. we bought $20 worth of christmas decorations at dollar tree. tacky yet amazing. we even jazzed up the $1 wreath with fake poinsettias. good times. oh and one of our bishops lent us his fibre optic christmas tree! we didn't have any ornaments so it's decorated with pass along cards with christ on the front. i LOVE it! have two wards makes it crazy busy!!! we go to both wards on sunday but we have to split up because they overlap. with PEC meetings and such, we're at church from 7:30 til 2pm, and then we proselyte and teach from 3 to 9. sundays are exhausting!! some pics of our seattle tour!
