Pics Mazda rx7 Goodbye Bently and Harris Polaroid! Classy yellow rain suit Fun apartment idk And that's Yonkers for ya Ok such an awesome week! So Saturday was probably one of the best days of my mission so far. It all started with getting up nice and early and Elder Brown let us do two laps instead of one because more than that he ends up falling asleep during studies which is normal towards the beginning of you mission. Then I found cracked wheat in our kitchen and I love that kind of hot cereal! So made that and we had these way good frozen blueberries and I put those in there and it was so flippin good. I felt pretty accomplished 🤑 then we went and visited this less active who we shared the Christmas initiative with and she said it made her happy, then this super old Irish lady stopped us and started talking our ears off and told us how she almost fell down the stars once. We tried to teach her but she was like nah and kept talking. So we told her we had to go and she told me I was a cute young man and I was just well thanks! 😁 then we got back to the car and I went to the back to get a book of Mormon and there was this MASSIVE flattened squirrel that I almost stepped on! It scared me to death! I may or may not have screamed... Anyway after that we went to look up this less active who people haven't been able to contact forever and she wasn't home... and it was a nice apartment building so we had to get buzzed up. So after we learned that she wasn't home Elder Brown started to walk out and I got prompted to ring a buzzer. I didn't know which one to ring soo I closed my eyes and just rang one. Well the persons buzzer I was lead to press let us right in! It was so cool! We went up and down taught her a lesson from the door because there wasn't another guy there and gave her a Book of Mormon. She said we could come back Saturday and I'm stoked. Then we asked her for referrals and she referred us to her sister across the street! We went over there as fast as our feet would take us and would ya look at that! She opened the door and let us teach her about the book of Mormon. It was so awesome. Words can't even describe how pumped I was. I was just happy all together that day.. like overly happy. But boy it was awesome! She said we could come back on the weekend too! Then we went over to Noels house (he is a less active member btw) and when he opened the door you could tell he hadn't had a good day. Well we got to talking to him and shared the Christmas initiative with him and the spirit and us and our joy totally changed his mood! He even thanked us and said he hadn't had a good day but we made it way better. It was awesome! Such a great day! Love you all!
