This week has been pretty crazy! I haven't had so many ties to home ever and I never thought that I would have as many as what I just had this week. It all started when I walked in the chapel by the mission home to pick up the guy that I was training and saw Sister Hawkins there. We were able to talk a little after the meeting and get a picture. She ended up going South somewhere but I am hoping that I will be able to serve around her sometime. I hadn't seen her forever. My new companion is Elder Darrow, and he is from Alaska, who lived maybe 30 min. from the Hawkins which was pretty nuts. He played baseball at a junior college down in Arizona for a year before he came out here. I told him where I was from and he said no way do you know Bailey Johnson, just so happens to be his girlfriend, and I said I think so, I never talked to her but I remember seeing her at school. She was really good friends with Rachel Miles. He also went to one of my friend's wedding. I am so glad that I got the companion that I have now, I was really worried that I was going to get someone that I was going to have a hard time getting along with but we are having a blast together. I really think that this may be the best transfer.
This week has been super busy sending home Elder Bunch and picking up Elder Darrow. Picking up the new ward has also been pretty crazy, just trying to know everyone and everything. We meet so many people it's so hard to remember names. The work is going good we have had appointments after appointments. Lately we have been helping this Korean couple and we have only had the chance to share a spiritual message with him. He has been super busy with work and making his man cave, but he said that he was going to have us over for dinner after we get the flooring put in which won't take long at all and then we will start teaching him the lessons. Our other investigators have been gone for the long weekend and wont be back till this week.
