Chicago!

 

We have officially made it to CHICAGO!!! This weeks p-day is
 tuesday because of the holiday so hopefully everyone had a good time and did something cool! 

Monday: Last p-day in mtc which thank goodness lol I was ready to get out and get going. I did lots of packing but also chilled because I was getting sick, so big thumbs down for that ahah. It was super fun tho because one of my best friends Hermana Cecil actually became my companion for a couple hours which was fire! Then we had our last class with Sister carlson which was sad but we had fun! I deffintly miss my district and teachers.

Tuesday: Very very crazy day. Woke up at 3am and got ready to head out to the airport! Super exciting to get going finally. It was fun to sit by Sistet Moon and Elder Arnett they are both goofy people lol. We landed and I could already feel the humidity and it was bad. After that we met up with everyone and went to the temple for pictures and then headed out to the city where we were asked to handout book of Mormons and to teach people. This was a very fun and crazy day! To finish the night we went to the presidents house and had super good deep-dish pizza and then we stayed at hotel which was soo nice because the mtc beds were not it ahah.

Wednesday: Super fun day! We go our trainors today and my Trainor Sister Hoggard is actually the best! We have so much in common! We got to know eachother more and has chick fil a for lunch and then we left and started to meet the friends in our area. We had a couple lessons which was soo cool and it's so nice to be teaching actual people not actors lol. But my area is super pretty we are covering two wards so our area is pretty big. But in my area we have the temple! And we have North Western University which is so sick. #Northshore #Evanston 

Thursday: Had a pretty typical missionary day got up at way to early and got ready,worked out,ate,personal study, and so on so forth and then about 10 is when we leave our apartment and usually go to a park or food place to do planning and what not. After that we has a member meal which was so good! We did lots of phone work but the funniest thing that happened was I was texting out a message and it was talking to our friend Sam and trying to get him to come to church and what not and I guess I sent it to Sister missionarys in another area lol oops, it really funny tho.

Friday: Nothing to much happened just lots of online contacting and street contacting which was funny because I went up to these people who were walking and was like is there anything we can pray for you guys about? And they said yeah for safe travels. I was like ohh where are you guys going to? And they said to buy weed and I was like ohhh funnnnn ahah. It was a very interesting day ngl.

Saturday: Pretty chill day today. We did phone work at Sam's Club which was funny because it reminded me of my brother's wedding. Sister Hoggard and I shared lots of our funny dating stories during lunch which was funny. We then went to Corner Bakery for dinner because we wanted to have a good meal going into fast sunday. After that we did more contacting and I had the realization that I haven't seen the moon once being here which is soo weird so that our goal is to find the moon. 

Sunday: Super cool day because we had double church which was fun and it was also nice to meet a lot of people ahah. We had dinner with a member which was really interesting because they tried to set me up with there son and that was really awkward lol. But the family is from Eukraine which is so cool! And then Sunday night we had exchanges which was something lol.

Monday: Crazy day. First off I had a new companion for the day Sister Hoyt and oh boy she is a lot. She likes praying for sparkles and anything she sees while praying which was very interesting lol. I was on a bike but then the chain broke on me so I had to walk the bike everywhere which was unfortunate but we did get ice cream which was sooo good! And then at the end of the day we switched back to our Trainors which I was sooo thankful for tbh. And yeah that was the last week pretty much!

Super long this week but sooo much has happened and its so far so good! Lots of mosquitoes here so I'm constantly eaching lol. But hope everyone had a fun week and I would love to hear back from anyone! Love you all!
