Hello! Thank you so much for the emails and pics! Dang! It looks like y'all had such a fun Halloween party! I miss our crazy family's traditions! I loved all of the costumes- especially Brent, Leah, and Madie's insurance company costumes! hahaha-
This week was awesome! We talked to so many solid people on campus.... we are working on setting up appointments to meet and teach them this week! The family ward had a Trunk- or- Treat that we got to go to before institute! It was fun and reminded me a ton of home! There is a family (she is the one who cuts our hair) that owns a mortuary business... so they set out a couple rental caskets to climb into and take pictures with... hahahaha I'm telling' ya... Texans are CRAZY about Halloween!
Mom- THANK YOU for the cutest Halloween package ever!! I loved it! Mom...the cookies...so good...I fell out of my chair on the first bite! Your homemade peanut butter cookies were on point! There's nothin' in the world like my momma's cookies!
Oh my gosh... guess who I ran into down here!? Casey Lish! Yep- that's right, what are the odds?! The one who "coached" my brother in baseball! What a small world!
On Thursday we had back-to-back lessons from 11am to 9:30pm! It was a crazy day- but we are teaching an awesome girl named K! (There are 3 now in our teaching pool! Sometimes it's hard to keep them all straight!)
On Friday we had our mission tour and it was so great!! Elder and Sister Pino both spoke to us in their native tongue and some of the spanish- speaking Elders and Sisters translated! It was kind of like General Conference all over again! So cool! Later that night, our zone had a Halloween party where we played basketball, pigskin, and ate pumpkin-shaped pizzas! It was a really fun day!
Our transfer calls came and Sister Affleck and I will be staying here in Canyon YSA for another transfer! We are really excited! Sister Bresnahan is moving down south to Abilene YSA. It will be a great transfer!
Fast and Testimony meeting was so good- one of our returning less active members got up in Sacrament Meeting and testified of the importance and blessings that he has seen in his life since he recently began paying his tithing again! Wow! I love this gospel so much and I want everyone to have it in their lives! I know that it is through Jesus Christ and his teachings that we can all have true and lasting happiness! I love y'all! Have a great week :)
Love,
Sister Evans
