Watch Out for Those Windows

EVERYONE LIFE IS GREAT. Just so fantastic. We made frosted lemonade with our ice cream machine. It worked great. Here's me in the ice cream machine box.

We have too many phones. Sister Noble's phone doesn't have a tray (she left it at home in Utah) so she can't put the sim card with the phone number in her phone. So she is using her phone for notes and pictures and area book and then the area phone for texting and calling. I have the Dayton ward number in my phone, and am using another phone with the YSA number. Four phones! Yay! 

Go check out my facebook page, we posted a great video talking about family history while blowing bubbles.  Family History Friday is when I do new videos. https://www.facebook.com/penelope.lake.79219

So last week I announced to ya'll that my companion was going home early. So we joined with the Amity sisters, and were a set of 4 for a day. Then Sister Noble went home the next day, and Sister Richmond went home the day after that. I am with Sister Rogers, who was with Sister Noble before she went home. Sister Rogers has been out five or six weeks, she has had a ton of companions for how long she has been out. Here is a picture of all four of us with the essentials - ice cream machine, toilet paper, and scriptures!

So context of the subject line, when we had 4 sisters in our apartment, two of them were video calling a member and sharing a short message about the Book of Mormon and Christ. I forgot what exactly about, but I was excited about something so I was jumping up and down in circles in the kitchen with my companion (and by with I mean she was calmly standing there watching me jump). THE MEMBERS ON THE VIDEO CALL SAW ME JUMPING IN CIRCLES BECAUSE OF THE REFLECTION IN THE WINDOW BEHIND THE SISTERS TEACHING. So they got some entertainment that day. :P 

Also we will be getting news on if/where we transfer anytime between yesterday and this Friday.  I love life.  It's just great. 

We have been busy with facebook, video lessons, reaching out to our congregation/ward, continuing contact with those we are teaching, updating notes, etc. We got permission to have more breaks throughout the day but we haven't had much time to use it. We use an extra half hour to study our scriptures and would love to use more time.

Here's a picture when we video chatted with Pres Wilde for Sister Richmond's departing interview. 

We are well stocked on food, thanks to a lot of member help. Also I bought a ton of my cereal and some beans and tortillas so we will be perfectly fine. :)

Also you all should check out family history! Family Search is a free app and it's pretty awesome. Accessible on your phone or computer. 

Most days we are eating pretty healthy. Some days we eat too much cookie dough. 

I don't know what the towels are on their heads.

I LOVE LIFE AND I LOVE ALL OF YOU HUMANS, KEEP UP THE HOPE AND JOY AND FUN EVEN THOUGH THE WORLD IS STOPPED. Also do churchy stuff. Open your scriptures, say more prayers, it's a great time to make time for God. 

Hope you are all avoiding Corona.
