okayyyy what happened this week.....hmm all the weeks keep on mixing together! things have been good, the normal work. last saturday we helped out in the garden of one of our investigators, planted oninons (she has a huge garden she works on it like all day everyday). but it was fun! she was super grateful, and she had some of here family there who are nonmembers and we got to talk to them about the gospel as well! anyway, working in the garden reminded me of the many saturdays spent at home in yard picking rocks, raking leaves or just doing yard work haha. other than that we had zone conference yesterday and monday as well. it was good seeing all the missionaries and seeing president and soeur granger! still getting excited for christmas and working hard! excited about the churchs light the world 25 days of service things! are you guys doing that as well?

okay, sorry if this email is short and quick, not a lot of time today. and also sorry about last week, everything was closed for the day of the dead so we didnt have anywhere to email. halloween was fun though! we had lots of kids stop by and handed out lots of candy, so that was fun.  As for the new sector, it is really pretty lots of mountains everywhere! it is also really hot! haha sun is starting to burn and my face is starting to get very very red haha i swear i put my sunscreen on every day but still i end up a nice shade of pink by the end of the day. We have been working hard though, trying our best right now to just find new investigators and people that are ready for the gospel! One story, not from this sector but from my last. so that training that soeur Chard and i did for our last zone conference, the one with the rocks and the sand and all that that i said . so before the conference we went in the woods near a lake to find some sand and while we were the...

Hey! All is well over here in koutio! soeur Chard and I are just working a way. Its been starting to get hotter and hotter (this might be gross to say, but i feel like i sweat soooo much, that means i am working hard though, right?) This week soeur Chard and i have been using the ukelele a lot which has been working out pretty well. We played right outside of mcdonalds last saturday near a bus stop, no one really talked to us, some people just stared so we were a little discouraged, not really sure what we were doing, but this morning we went to do our grocery shopping and one of the security gaurd stopped us and said "hey! you guys were the ones playing the music over by mcdonalds the other day right?" and we said "yah...." kind of worried he was going to tell us that we werent allowed to do that or something and then he said " that was really cool, i liked your guy's music" so! playing wasnt for nothing, if nothing else we made that guys day. Then...

 well this week has been really good. It was general conference so all of saturday and pretty much all of sunday we just watched general conference at the chapel! it was so nice to hear the voices of the apostels and to hear from our leaders. I dont think i have ever enjoyed conference so much until i watched it here on the mission. Besides that, this week was filled with a lot of contacting, we have been knocking tons of doors, trying to talk to everyone on the street, and also think of creative new things to do. Soeur Chard and i set up a family history table at the park, and just had people write down why they love their family and then we explained to them how they can know that their family can be together for ever, it was fun and we did have a fair amount of people that came up to us and just had the chance to talk about their family!  the banner "aimez vous votre famille?" means "do you love your family?" in other news, this week is the vacation ...
