Hello!!
Hey, so this week was super crazy for sure! But
on Monday we had a blast going off to play basketball with all of the
missionaries in the zone. Then when we got back I found that the same toe that I
had dislocated began to hurt a little bit again. It isn’t too bad though. I
haven’t been able to fully bend it since I dislocated it, but usually it is just
fine and it hasn’t stopped me from working. So that was kinda a bummer. However,
the next two days even though I was super tired from playing basketball, we had
a ton of chances to do service this last week which made up for all of the rest
of the stuff that happened! :D
We got called over by this guy from Europe on Sunday night and he started talking to us about how he knows some Mormons and stuff and how they are really good people. Then he mentioned that he had traveled through Belgium, and so I said "I lived there for a little while!" So we talked about that for a few minutes. Then we also found out that he was having a bunch of rocks delivered to his house to spread around his yard and that he was going to try to hire some people to do it for him (because he is a little bit older). So I jumped up and said, "Hey, we will do it!" He was completely caught off guard but then he accepted and we went over there for Tuesday and Wednesday morning and worked for him for like 2 hours each time. It was some good work. He said that because we did that for him, and didn't even accept his money that he was going to try to get back in contact with some of his Mormon friends that live by him in Chandler. It was a great experience! Oh and he is also coming and taking us out to Apple Bee's this next week! :D He is a super cool guy!
Then on Thursday we went out and did some service for one of the members in one of our wards. We had gone over and trimmed up some of the trees that are in his back yard, and this time we dug out some little canals so that they could be watered a little bit easier. It was super easy, but it was way fun!

Other than that we had one more crazy thing
happen too! Just last night we had this crazy storm come through Tempe where I
am at. Some people still think that it might have been a tornado. But I don’t
think so. It was raining super hard and then the wind was fast enough that it
tore trees in half, and also took some of the trees straight out of the ground.
Luckily we were still in our dinner appointment when the storm hit. But it was
super crazy!!! :D In our dinner though, the member was showing us all of these
cool like herb things that if you put some drops on your tongue one of them
makes it so that you cannot taste sugar for like 2 hours. I put some on my
tongue and ate an Oreo. It literally tasted just like flour, and coco powder. It
was nasty! Then he did some acupuncture on our hands which was kinda
cool!
Well the baptism didn't
end up happening this week and probably won’t be for a while, and most of our
appointments canceled this week. :( That's always a bummer, but we were able to
keep smiles on our face through it all so I am super happy about that!!! :0
