Everything has been going well here. We had Robert Matthews baptism on Saturday, and it was amazing. Anne was so sad that Sister Holguin (the sister that was here before me) wasn't allowed to come to the baptism, but twenty minutes before hand, we found out that she was allowed to skype in, so it was really exciting. She bore her testimony and then Robert bore his testimony, and everyone in the congregation was in tears!
We picked up a new investigator this week! Her name is Sheila, and her personality really reminds me of Grandma Nanna or Aunt Marilynn! Or it might just be the thick southern accent :) We had like a 2 hour lesson with her yesterday, she's hilarious and super elect. She's going to get baptized soon, I can feel it!
Thanks so much for the box of sunshine :) I really enjoyed all of your letters and sunshine messages, and my roommates really enjoyed the candy, haha! So I had to go and pick up the package from the post office, and we went at 8:30 thursday morning right before our zone conference (which lasts til 4 in the afternoon). I wasn't expecting it to be full of chocolate! It was like 100 degrees out so I didn't want to leave it in the car, so I had to use my missionary ninja skills to sneak it into the young women's room in the church and stealthily hide it on the table right in the middle of the room, haha :) anyway, thanks for the shirt! I was super jealous that I didn't get one when I saw the cousin camp picture!
I hope that everything is still going good at home! Did everyone make it to Alaska safely? What's the agenda for the trip? Have they caught anything yet? What are all of the girls up to home alone?
Love you!
Love,
Sister Lesser
Mom:
Everyone shares clothes out here, I actually have one of the smallest closets, people just like my stuff :) Things just tend to accumulate. I've already been given hand-me-downs from Hermana Melgar-fetzer. I don't know what I'm going to do with all of this stuff when I have to move! Everything with the puppies will go fine, that's what Lacey and Grandma are for :) haha. When do the guys get back from Alaska? Is everyone back from trek now? How did that go? Have you heard any pioneer horror stories? :) Do you know any good stories about our ancestors, or could you find some pictures to send me? This ward is really big on family history, and it's making me interested :) Did you know that there's a program on familysearch.org where you can find out what famous people you're related to and how?!?! Pretty neat stuff :) I haven't been able to figure it out yet, but it's definitely something to look into! Love you, hope your week is amazing!
Mandee:
I've got to tell you Mandee, I'm a little bit disappointed with your haircut :) I was expecting drastic, pixie cut, dark brown hair! tsk, tsk :) I always look forward to your e-mails because you tell me exactly what's going on, down to every random detail, like the time you made cupcakes and decided to take a selfie with them :) haha. Good luck birthing puppies and chopping tails this week, glad it's not me!
Grandma Bowcutt:
It sounds like you guys are keeping pretty busy! You're so lucky that you get to babysit those cute girls, I'm jealous! I don't get to hold babies for 16 more months :( Oh well, you should send me some pictures! I can't believe that Monroe is a year old already, it seems like she was just born! Everyone is getting so old! I bet Kaden is even going to leave on his mission before I get back! It's a little bit weird being away from everyone, but it's rewarding being out here and serving the Lord. Hope that you have a great week! Love you!
Grandma Nanna:
Thanks for all of the pictures, I haven't been to Island park in forever it seems like! I want to go to yellowstone when I get back, it seems like you guys had a lot of fun :) Thanks for agreeing to help my mom birth puppies, Heaven knows that she needs it! haha :) Well, I hope that you guys have a great week, keep sending pictures please, I love to see how everyone is doing!
