PB pie and the wrong Walnut Street

Hello from Spokane!
Hey everybody!
It's been quite an odd week!

Monday I got to eat a PB Cream Pie courtesy of Aunt Laura and Sis Deangelo!

I also found out the Mitmas are moving back into the ward!!! It's both good and bad, but it is. I'm excited to see them, though!

Tuesday Elder Larsen started getting sick, but we had to help someone move in, It was a really good
easy move and they bought us Pizza Rita after! MY FAVORITE!!! Elder Larsen had to take a nap that afternoon and that was interesting.

Wednesday we had an interesting day as well, Elder Larsen was still sick, so he had to sleep a ton more, but we had an awesome lunch appt with Billy and afterwards President Mullen picked us up and we went to see the Cornwells (Faustin had to cancel), but we had a really good lesson and President Mullen gave Elder Larsen a blessing, which helped so much!

Also, we got the clearance to teach Khaled, a Muslim (for now) from Sudan and he's been progressing really well!

Thursday  we had to go on splits for an appt because Elder Larsen was still super sick, and so Elder Ledbetter and I went to teach Doc. He's such an awesome guy and his heart is so prepared to receive the gospel! We've known him since I've been here, he's the guy that runs the computer lab we email at! And he's progressing so well!

Friday we had zone training and I received a lot of needed inspiration to help me manage my stress as well as improving the work in our area! We also had an awesome lesson with Doc! We gave him a  church tour and the spirit was so strong!

That evening we spent running around getting jumpsuits for the baptism and all sorts of chaos -- NEVER DOING A BAPTISM AT ANOTHER STAKE CENTER AGAIN! It was so ridiculously complicated, but luckily it worked out.

Saturday, we helped someone move, and it was super funny! She said she was moving from Mallon to Walnut (like 4 blocks away), but she failed to mention that it was the Walnut out in the Valley! It was not good! And Bro Deangelo was actually in a hurry! It was an interesting experience, but Bro Deangelo is so amazing, He didn't even let it bother him!

That evening we had Dominick's baptism! It was perfect! And Bro Tibbets had to have help because his arm has some problems, so Elder Larsen and him baptized Dominick! 2-man baptism! Woo! It was such a good baptism!

Sunday was the Confirmation and just a really good day at church. We also had Egyptian food for dinner and just had a lot of fun!

It's been a really great week and things are going great!

Thanks for your prayers!
Love ya'll!
