Hey :)

This as been such a long and hard week! and the fact that I have been really tired and I have a cold isn't making it any better. Sister White and I have taught two investigators... which was really hard... yesterday we taught Alejandro. And hes hard to teach.. He likes Bible bashing which Sister White and I aren't really good at .... YET! Our teacher taught us a cool way to mark our Scriptures.. so Sister White and I will be going to get a new hard back copy of the Bible and BOM after emailing. Nothing about being a missionary is easy !! NOTHING! This is by far the hardest thing I've ever done.  But I reassure myself that If I couldn't do this I wouldn't have been called!

Today my zone did a session at the Provo Temple... It was really awesome.. I feel like I now have a spiritual boost that will get me through the next week :)
On Wednesday my District was asked to be Host for the new missionaries.. It was the coolest experience and such a honor... I got to show 3 new missionaries around the MTC :)

Okay now to say what I need/want :)

- warm socks
- another black skirt (the one I brought is to short)
- hot red candies...you know the ones I love!
- I cant find the camera charger.. did I leave it in dads car?
- The box that is on my floor with all the clothes in it. ( you should probably wait to send me this stuff until after I get to Oregon)

Things I'm dying without:)

- McDonald fries
- Taco Bell
- long hot baths
- my bed & closet
- cookies stinky blanket
- dads hugs
- moms voice
- scouts pictures and humor
- sissy's late night chats and dates

I'm really grateful for the emails, Dear Elders, letters, and packages... It keeps me going when I feel like I can't.

Miss yall and Love yall !!!!

XOXO Sister Z
