June 17, 2015 President Morgan and Elder Ficklin leaving :(

So this week has been a good one,

Thursday was a quiet day we just taught our usual lessons nothing to exciting there.

Friday was the same too, nothing crazy happened other then it was wicked hot here! I’ve been drinking tons of water!

Saturday was pretty good! We had an odd amount of ward meetings we went to but it was good because it was cooking outside! Luckily we avoided most of the heat. Drinking tons of water! We are on an art festival committee to help get ready for an art festival on Saturday. The people on the committee are really cool and funny too so it’s a blast, I think its going to be a good turnout.

Sunday was really crazy! We went to church and it was good, then afterwards we went to one of our member’s art gallery open house thing, and talked to her husband for a while, he is really a cool guy! He does nonprofit work in Africa and is there a ton! But he is a really good and nice guy. After words we went and visited a less active named Sanjay, he is from India and somehow he is a Scottish prince. So that’s weird! But he's really cool! We talked a lot about what was keeping him from coming to church. I think he will be coming this Saturday. Then after that we went to a dinner appointment which was pretty good. I enjoyed it. Our dinner appointments are stacked due to Elder Ficklin leaving and we are looking to have a very busy week so that's really good! I'm going to miss President Morgan.

Monday was pretty average Elder Ficklin had his exit interview and they were running behind schedule as well so that took a good while,

Then Tuesday we spent the morning doing service by painting, it was really good! It is just fun to paint walls for some reason and not have to wear a shirt and tie.  Then after words a member from the Spanish ward takes the whole zone out to lunch once a transfer so we went and Elder Ficklin and I ate horse steaks they were really chewy. But that was the week! 

Today I’m with Elder Holtom while Elder Ficklin is at the temple with President and transfers are next week! So that’s fun! Anyways have fun during Strawberry days! Love you!
