Week 6

Hi family!

How are you all? Thank you all for the letters and Dear Elders! This week has been so awesome. I'm getting really excited because we get our travel plans by the end of next week! It's crazy how fast time is flying. I can't even remember what all happened this week to write about it.

We're officially not required to wear tights/nylons anymore, which caused much rejoicing among the sister missionaries. Except... now I actually kind of love wearing them. But in summer it'll be nice.

Did you all get to see the First Presidency devotional? The Christmas one? They broadcast it here on Sunday, and I really enjoyed it. Especially President Uchtdorf talking about the Grinch :)

So we have taught lessons in German twice now, and both times were sooooooo bad hahahah. I mean, we can talk just fine, but the volunteer investigators speak much better German than us, so we panic every time they ask questions. Also, there's one volunteer who comes every week, Herr Cuvelier, and somehow we ALWAYS manage to teach him haha. We have taught him three times now, but each time he's a different investigator so we have to pretend we've never seen him before. This week he decided he was Muslim, so we had to explain God and Jesus Christ to him, and how they were different from Allah and Muhammed hahahahah IN GERMAN. Afterwards we just laughed so hard. Sometimes the TRC (where we teach the investigators) is borderline humiliating. But we learn so much every time, and it's always funny afterward.

What else... oh, so Mom, I wanted to tell you about Sister Curtis. Sister Curtis is our branch president's wife, and she is really good about checking up on us girls, and coming and making sure we're healthy, and visiting our residence halls to say goodnight to us every Tuesday, stuff like that. Every time we see her we get about five hugs from her. She reminds me a lot of Sister Harlon, actually. I should send you a picture. Anyway, she told us this week, "Everyone, I want you to write your mothers and tell them that if they're worrying about you, Mom Curtis is looking out for you." hahaha. She is so sweet. So anyway, just know that she is giving me proxy hugs for you.

Well, that's about it, I know I'm forgetting stuff but my laundry's almost done anyway. If I get my travel plans before next time I email I'll let you know what time I have my layovers and where and all of that.

I love you all so much!
