Sup homies.

Well to begin wasn't conference great? I'll get to that later but seriously you guys, we are blessed.

The headaches are the same.. If not worse :/ But I have a doctor's appointment this week so we'll see how that goes. Sister Staker is great about it.. She is super patient and seems to really understand how hard it is for me, so I am super grateful for her.

This week was pretty crazy. We had 2 of the less actives that we were working with move and we were the only ones that they could get ahold of to help them! So we helped 2 people move in the same day and we did it all by ourselves! Talk about heavy duty. We lifted the couches, dressers, beds.. you name it. We actually surprised ourselves haha I think we had some Heavenly help for sure with this one because seriously.. I have no muscle haha. But it kept us busy for a few days so that was good. We also woke up suuuuper sore... Yeah we felt like we were 80 years old haha.

Do you guys remember Liz and Isaiah? They were baptized in Riverside. Well they came and took us to lunch this week! It was so great to see them. Liz has her patriarchal blessing and a calling and is going to the temple to do baptisms! It was so neat to hear that. Isaiah is doing scouts and she said that he bears his testimony all the time in sacrament meeting. They are so great :) Also there was one night where there was a knock at our door and I went to answer it and it was Skyler and Sister Graves! They had also just come back from the temple doing baptisms! Gosh it was so cool to see and hear my converts gaining a stronger testimony in the gospel and doing what Heavenly Father has asked them to do. It was such a tender mercy from Heavenly Father to be able to see all 3 of them this week. I know He knows I am struggling with these dumb migraines, and I think He sent them to me to let me know everything is okay :) It was such a blessing!

We went out to dinner one night because a member gave us some money.. And we were eating and a different waiter came up and said "Save some room, I'm gonna buy your dessert." Haha it was kinda funny and I have no idea why he wanted to buy us dessert but it was nice and we got free food! We get so many perks as a missionary haha.

So conference! Pretty much I think we need to make sure to follow and sustain the prophet! That was pretty clear haha. Also... I don't know if it was just the lighting or what but it looked like all the apostles went and got a spray tan right before conference started haha. Even Lil Tommy was lookin pretty tan. Right? Maybe it was just me but I kept laughing every time there was a new speaker haha. But disregarding thaaat... It was all pretty good. I actually didn't catch all of it because the fluorescent lighting in the church made my head hurt really bad so it was hard to concentrate.. But I tried really hard! However I really feel like my "strength was faithened" hahaha we all died laughing when that dude said that. Pretty good. I thought Elder Andersen's talk on Joseph Smith was really good. That will be good to use with future homies that want to bash with us. Overall conference was good. It went by super fast which in the past I would never say that.. I was telling Sister Staker that on my mission is the first time that I haven't fallen asleep during a conference session :) Boo yah.

This week we are going to the temple and having interviews with P. Mully (President Mullen) and watching Meet the Mormons! So it should be a good week. Thanks for all your support and love. It's much needed and much appreciated. Love you all!

Sister Anderson :)
