December 27, 2021 Hello everybody! I hope you all had a great Christmas! I know I sure did! We will get to that in a minute.  The last couple of weeks have been very very crazy! About a week and a half ago, Sister Seppi went home so she could be with her family for Christmas! So happy that I was able to he her companion even if it was just for 4 weeks! We got Sister Bryant to take her spot and I've been with her for the last 2 weeks! She is the freaking best! She went to Utah State too before the mission! Go Aggies!!!  This last week we had our mission Christmas devotional! We got to go to Orlando with half of our mission and it is was so good. They had a bunch of musical numbers and then in between those they had time for anyone to share their testimony.

 December 13, 2021 Hello everybody! This week was very very good!  We had interviews with President Ashcraft this last week and they went really well!

November 29, 2021 Hello everybody!  I hope you had a great week and an even better Thanksgiving! I can say for certain now that when you are a missionary during Thanksgiving, people will not let you leave their house hungry or without some leftover pie. Our fridge is filled of turkey, potatoes, and all sorts of sides that our wonderful members have given us since Thursday. We joked we weren't going to need to go shopping this week haha.  This last week wasn't just full of turkey day food, it was also filled with lots and lot of miracles! Paris! If y'all remember a while back, Sister Blanchard and I got a call from a returning member who said she wanted to have her daughter baptized. We ended up needing to refer her to the Narcoossee sisters since they lived in their ward boundaries, but since Sister Seppi and I are covering both now, I get to help teach her! She is on date to be baptized on the 12th of December! Woot woot! Her family is very excited for her and we only have
