Howdy folks.

So, these past 2 weeks have been rough. Its been a lot of downs, and few ups. But, I didn't write a weekly last week, so I thought I needed to send an update. 

The mission split on July 1st, and transfers were July 8th. We got 2 new ZLs from the Texas Dallas mission to the Lewisville and Carrollton zones and it was a really hard adjustment for all of us. They are really hard working, but had a different way of doing things. We had a lot of growing pain with them. I won't go into details. 

We also had MLC which I thought was fun and not as bad as we thought it'd be. 

Menlove and I were having a blast together and had all these awesome progressing people and I really loved my zone, but President transferred me.

 So, now I am on the other side of the mission, white washing, training a reassigned missionary. It's been a rough week. I feel like I just white washed into a mission I'm not a part of, but I know it'll get better! It always does. Sister Schmutz

Ava got baptized this week! Which is such a miracle because we weren't sure she would! She has been going through a lot, and then had a seizure a few days before. We were so nervous, but she pulled through! She is awesome!  

 Quick funny story: 

Before I got transferred we went over to teach Ava and her niece brought  her pet bird out. Well Ava, a 69 year old woman, is scared of birds and pushed over Sister Menlove's chair to go hide in the pantry 😂😂. 

Also, I met a man at Braum's and turns out he is the first real life Big Tex, and it was so funny. He talked to me for 45 minutes, then went to his car and brought me back a signed pic of himself as Big Tex  It was great. 

Not much to report! Hopefully I'll have more next week!

Also, Elder Paulsen bought us all tech decks so I've been practicing, but I'm still not too good.
