the one where Sister wankier knocks&knocks&knocks🏠🏘👩🏽‍🤝‍👩🏼

 good morning !!! & happy pday !!! 

as you can see from my cutie little title for the email this week my sweet little kid begged to go knocking and so we were out here KNOCKING ?!?!?!!! 

I am by no means a knocking girlie but we did find 10 people that day following up with some refferals and then also knocking for a good 3 hours straight!! it was NON STOP in the Houston heat we were SOAKED!! but determined!! we put a good little healthy competition on our knocking skills with the elders !! 

we decided that whoever got more people with a return appointment that day would win their favorite soda from circle K haha and of course we HAD to pull through and so we found 10 people in one day and they found a solid 4 haha it was quite nice!! I felt really accomplished !!! and extrmemly grateful!!! who knew at 15 months I would be out here knocking like a maniac lol 

off the crazy knocking lol we also got to meet with taralee, tenzin, and anan and they are the cutest family EVER I love them!! we decided we are going to start doing lessons but very slowly and very simply with them!! and it has been SO powerful!! we taught them the very very beginning of the lessons expressing God's love for her and her family and how he is truly our Heavenly Father! and created us in his image!! we shared about prophets and Jesus christ and my fav ever !! the atonement of jesus christ the lesson was SO powerful !! when is comes to the gospel of jesus christ it is so much simpler and more personal then I ever thought!! the spirit was SO powerful!! 

my studies this week have been on this topic!! how in anything in the gospel it's small bits and pieces that grow together over time!! I listened to a talk this week about small and simple things by Elder Ballard and it was SO GOOD!! it made me think SO much!! 

we also met our friend Tyler this week!! she called the YSA elders and was like idek why I'm doing this but I need some help putting God back into my life and they chatted with her and she was like im a cheer coach rn and love cheerleading!! and they were like hmm well let's meet up and then called us RIGHT after and opened the call with we have a cheer coach for you lol so we got to meet Tyler and teach with them this week and it was AMAZING!! WE LOVE HER!! this Friday we are going to her home football game SO YAY and she is SO pumped to come to church and asked about like offically joining the church!! and we were like yeah usually its a month or month and a half process and you would be 100% prepared to join this church and she was like IM ALL IN and so we put her on date for this coming month!! 

we also got to spend a solid time in the mission home with Sister Mcmullin this week and it was AWESOME to sit and chat with her I love her so much !!!!! 

I also got to eat dinner with my uncle Steven!! he's not actually my uncle lol but it's always been what I call him lol he came down for work and we got to eat at his fav place and it was YUMMY and so good to see him!! 

Karla is doing so good as well !!! she is growing SO MUCH in the best ways ever!! we are so proud of her!!! 

ALSO we have some cutie friends to meet with more this week so I can't wait for next week's email it's going to have SO MUCH!! 

we literally met a million people this week lol I can't seem to write a good enough email for all the AMAZING miracles and people we met so just know I am SO SO SO happy out here in the second best ysa I've ever been to in my life ;) lol the work is ZOOMING on and me and my kid are fighting demons trying to keep up!! which is the best stress to have out here!!
