Pets, Pets, Pets....

A member in the area took us and 5 other missionaries to get ice cream, pet puppies in a pet store, and explore cute shops. Fun to be with all the other missionaries. We also did olive oil tasting at a vineyard. (Mom Note: Penelope is allergic to dogs and cats and everyone has all types of pets in Oregon. You can see her far in the back not touching the animals)

This week we got bikes! It is a struggle though because when we got it from the office dude who gave it to us he raised the seat on the blue bike for me. The seat height is easy to adjust, so I told Sister Richmond that I was going to take her pink one later and switch the seat heights, but now I really like the gears on the blue one so I'm struggling between wanting the gears I like versus wanting my bike to be pink. It's so hard. :)

This week I finished another Book of Mormon again! That was fun. Lots of work.

We had a lesson with someone and we were planning to teach the Plan of Salvation, which is talking about what happened before we were born and what happens after we die. Well, God was involved with that plan because it turned out his grandma died the day before we came over to teach. He thought about canceling with us and decided against it and we had chosen a topic that was perfect for him that day. :)

We were walking around and saw this dog chasing this chicken. We walked by that way again later that day and the dog was happily eating the chicken. Also Sister Richmond decided to take a picture of the chicken randomly earlier that day and it was the same chicken that got eaten. So we got some before and after pics for you!

We got a burrito at one of the three places to eat out at at Dayton. We ate dinner with this couple and it was super good meatloaf and mashed potatoes.

I can't think of anything else this week.

Have a great day!

Keep reading your scriptures every day! I love notes in my mailbox.
