I tried doing the first vision lol So at the gardens we decided to have a dessert party! We ended up all bringing cookies but all different flavors so we had a cookie party instead! Afterward we raked grass for 2 hours. We were tearing up the grass to put new grass in. It was a long process buuuut while we were raking one of the gardeners started singing a song but changed the words and was like "me and my inmates... raking up sod.... me and my inmates... we got caught" we were all dying laughing. Bheema... remember when I talked about our neighbor's dog named bheema? Well Shruthi (bheemas owner) and Bheema came over to say hi! It was a sweet surp...

October 19, 2020 I really need to do the highlights this week to focus on the good. This week ended on a very low point. I'll start with the low point and end with the good. Idk how but I accidentally stepped on an ant hill and I was covered in ants in seconds. I was bit all over and it hurts to move. Everything itches all the time. My feet got bit the worst and they are very very swollen from all of the bites. I've been icing my feet and such to try and get the swelling down. Any ideas? It's been a rough past couple days since it happened. I'm not kidding I seriously cant move and wearing shoes hurts a ton. I cant even wear my jandals my feet are so swollen from bites. Well..... that's where I'm at. Ok now to put that in the past and to focus on the good! Weekly highlights! 1. Hna Suarez brought us an unholy amount of food! 2. My dad sent us pizza! 3. I worked 50 hours at the gardens and got a pin! 4.we gave Rhonda cookies! 5. We were an answer ...

October 12, 2020 I think I'm going to start putting the highlights of my week in my emails just to bring some light to y'alls day. 1. Our disposal breaking 🤢🤮 2. Studying at the park 3.working in celebration garden! 4.working at the japanese gardens 5. Gyro king 6. I scared our bishop Well this week was the first week of transfers and really nothing happened. Our disposal broke this week. And when I mean it broke like it broke and our apartment smelled absolutely terrible. We had the windows open, all the fans going and we were wearing masks and the smell still got worse. We ended up making cookies to try and cover the smell but somehow we messed up making the cookies. I literally know that recipe by heart and we messed up. I'm disappointed in myself. The cookies smelled DISGUSTING. I've never been repulsed by chocolate chip cookies. I didnt even taste em because they smelled so bad. We have no idea what went wrong because we follow the recipe to a T but...

Ain't no rest for the righteous

October 5, 2020 Wow! What a week! Highlights of the week!!! 1. PAOLA GOT BAPTIZED!!!!! 2. Exchanges 3. Lesson pass off 4. Transfers 5. Conference!! So Paola got baptized!!! It was amazing. She had the biggest smile on her face as she was baptized. She is already doing more missionary work than I am and inviting everyone she knows to hear the gospel. She gets confirmed this sunday so we are all eagerly waiting to go to church! Exchanges! I went to west University for exchanges. I literally spent the day at a dog park. I was in heaven!!! We walked the neighbors dog and went to a dog park! I was playing with this cute little black puppy pug and I was like oops sorry I'm here playing with this random dog is that allowed? And this dude is like yeah you're good! Thats my dog. I asked him what his name was and he said Batman! It was a dope dog. The dog park was amazing. There were so many dogs there and it was a great opportunity to talk with the dog owners. So less...
