Well, my week has definately been better than all of yours have been. Wow. That was a crazy crazy week. It is almost like you were not supposed to go. But that is porbably the only time you were able to go with Bubba's schedule.

Nothing terrilby exciting has happened this week. But this coming week on the other hand is another thought. This past week...We got two new investigators this week! We went by an apartment that some of the previous sisters have visisted and she accepted to take the lessons again. This 'gator is named Mary James. She took the lessons previously and had a baptism date but then things happened and she decided that she could not get baptized. So, now we are teaching her and hopefully she will be baptized soon. Her husband Larry is taking the lessons also. It is super exciting. We just need to figure out how to get them to church. Hmm... ANy thoughts? Another thing happened yesterday that was super weird.
Lindsay, a 'gator, called us and for some reason she does not like me or she just does not remember my name, but she left a message for us on the phone and asked for sister Graham only. Anyway, She called us and she seemed a bit upset about something and so we call her back and she just seemed very paranoid with something but she never told us what. She asked Sister Graham "do you see? Do you see?" Sister Graham said "See what?" and then Lindsay goes off on a new subject. It is very weird situation. We think that she is possesed by the devil or something because of the things she experiences and the things that she says. She does not believe in modern day prophets at all and she has not openly said this to us but we think she thinks that our church is not true. She believes that when Jospeh Smith was in the sacred grove, he saw Satan instead of HF and Jesus Christ. Hmm. wierd. But then she keeps saying that she is getting revelation upon revelation upon revelation. We think she thinks she is a prophet. But we don't know anything because she won't tell us and it is crazy wierd and creepy. We have senior missionaries and we think that they need to come with us to her appoinments from now on.
So yeah. That was the most bizarre thing that has ever happened so far on my mission. Hopefully we can help Lindsay know the truth of the gospel and that she will accept it. She is very confused woman and she is going to go crazy if things like this happen to her more.

That was pretty much all that happened that week. This coming week is going to be awesome. My First baptism!!!!!!! Leean Emerson is getting baptized on Saturday at 6:00. This is exciting news. I cannot wait for to get baptized. She is such a strong member already. She even sung in church yesterday. Oh, I gave my first lesson in a class yesterday. it was about obediance. And I did pretty dang well. :)

Today was exhausting. We moved today to our new apartment. We moved a whole 3 blocks away. We got up at 6:30 like usual, did one hour of personal study, one hour of companion study, and then we started. 8:30 to 10:00 we were by ourselves packing. We got a car load of stuff to the new apartment and then we started to load the car up with more stuff. Then at 10:00 others came to help. Elder Foote (the senior) came, Keith Amanda and Marie emerson came with their truck, and the Hinckle's came with thier cars. We loaded EVERYTHING up in all the cars and truck. We got two big dressers, two endtables, and table, five matresses, and a couple small things into the back of one truck. It was amazing. I should have taken a picture of it. Oh well. Then everything else was in the cars. We then took everything to the new apartment and unloaded everything. That was so much faster. It only too two hours to do all of that. I was amazed. Everyone left and before the Hinckles left, Sister Hinckle insisted that she do our laundry for us. We tried to refuse but that did not work. She took it anyway. So, we got our laundry done for us. It is kind of weird that someone is doing my laundry. I am so used to doing it. Then Sister Graham and I started to put things away and got ready for the day and now I am here writing to you. I am so tired. Bed is sounding pretty good right now. But I have to go tract some more. Yeah for Tracting!!!.

I gots to go. I hope you all have a great week and better weekend. I love you. !!!!
