4th of July Week


Highlights from the week:
-Seeing fireworks!

-Eating lunch with a blind lady and dinner with a deaf family. If I needed to tell my companion something I could sign it at lunch, and say it under my breath at dinner. It is so neat to interact with different types of people!

-Tilling a garden for the 1st time

-Walking in a baby pool to clean off after tilling the garden...that doesn't count a swimming, right? (we aren't supposed to swim while serving a mission)

-Going to the L.A. Temple! We went to the ASL session and it was...different. But cool!

-Taking the "scenic route" home from the Temple and seeing the ocean

-"Heavenly Father, Thanks for bringing the Witches back" - Maria's Prayer

Transfers happened this week and I am staying here in good ol' Lancaster and will continue learning ASL with Sister Robb. I am really excited to set some great goals for this transfer.
"Goals reflect the desires of our hearts and our vision of what we can accomplish. Through goals and plans, our hopes are transformed into action. Goal setting and planning are acts of faith." -Preach My Gospel
