Like....a lot!! I mean any time that I see a piano...I'm making my way towards it.

I am getting better. I will have to keep yall updated on how it goes I guess.
So I didn't talk about Monday last week...I'll start there I guess...Monday I cut 4 Elder's hair. IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS!!! I still got my touch!!! :) That was pretty cool to be able to still do that. We emailed at the Fike's and during that it started to POUR!!! Wonderful, wonderful rain. It was so pretty!
Anyways...Tuesday. What happened Tuesday...AH! Tuesday we did service at Sis Kunz. She's about 1/2 way through her pregnancy and is on bed rest. So we went over and ended out entertaining her 5 children under the age of 8 so she could sit down and rest. It was great :) Kids are so funny. I played the piano there.
On Wednesday afternoon, we went to go and visit Mary. She's 90 and we found out her 94 yr old husband just passed away. We are planting seeds for the next life!! I have come to love her :) she is such a sweetheart and loves that we visit her. At dinner with the Fraizers, we were finishing and going into the other room when I spotted the piano. I played the piano there. The kids sang along and we ended out fitting 4 of us on the bench. Loved it :) Needless to say, I loved it too.
Thursday, I finished the Book of Mormon for the first time on my mission. I really started it after Christmas. So it took me about 6 months. It was such a beautiful, special experience where I had the opportunity to reconfirm my testimony. I also had the pleasure of bearing my testimony on the restoration in specialized training. It was so wonderful!! Later that day, when we were in Inverness...*face-to-palm*...We had just gotten out of the car from our ride up there, and a wonderful bird decided to let it go on my head. Yes...the bird pooped on me. BLECK!! So, when we got to our dinner I went straight to the bathroom to clean the remains from my hair.

Specialized Training
Friday. Planning since we had specialized training. Bingo was fun as ever! we got to talk with the member who got the missionaries there. Norma is SO accomplished. It's awesome. She was born in Houston. This week we are going to go a little early to get to visit with her more and to play rummikub. :) I also got a package from the Keller's!! (they live in my last area). It was so great :) I love them and their family!!! That night we went to the Mediros. Sis O ended out having a Lego gun war. It was pretty epic.
Saturday was filled with wandering. Lots of it. We wandered all over cottage gardens trying to visit former investigators. That night, was dinner at the Roger's. It was Wes' birthday so we all got to wear party hat's and eat cereal. It was yum. :) After that we went to go and visit Sis Rushing. There we made cookies and I got to play the piano a bit. :) Sis R really liked it :)
Sunday. Fathers day. HAPPY DAD'S DAY!!! We started a mustache campaign...I guess.
We're cute...I know. We don't really have any progressing investigators right now...so we are doing a lot of service. Another campaign I am trying to start is "Pray for Parkway" I think the two go right hand in hand. If anyone would like to join...BE MY GUEST!!! :) We helped Sis Farnsworth with dinner for Bro Farnsworth and ended out having 2 dinners. Eventually we ended out at Bishops and teaching the Mustard Seed Parable. We were talking about how tall it could grow and imagining if we had faith that big. Sean said, "Then you'd be Jesus!!" It was great. We all had a laugh.
We just ended the transfer. I am staying in Parkway for at least another 6 weeks.
Here's to transfer 2 w/Sis O/4 in Parkway/6 total!!
God Bless from Texas!!
