Week 24: two decades later...

 Heyyy!!!

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes!! I was absolutely spoiled by my zone, family, and friends. It feels kind of gross to say I'm in my 20s but probably not as bad as my mom saying she has 3 kids over 20 lol. Anywho I had a really good week. Im having a lot of much needed fun this transfer and its been such a breath of fresh air. 

Tuesday was such a fun birthday. It started out like normal but Elder Driscoll and Elder Tolman surprised me with stuffed strawberry cream cheese french toast with homemade lemon syrup. Oh my gosh it was so good and it meant so much that they did that for me! After that we grabbed some lunch and Sister T and Sister Walker surprised me at the park with some birthday gear which was so fun. Elder Huffstuffler and Elder Tovar gave me a horse head they found in their bathroom and Elder Crow gave me a whoopie cushion that he found in his apartment. You can tell the elders really go the extra mile with their gifts. We ended the night at crumbl with the sisters and some cake my momma sent us. Overall such a fire day. 

Highlights of the week!!
1. We had interviews with President in Eugene and went to Texas roadhouse afterwards which was soo good. 
2. We got to some wood chopping for service and hold their baby bunnies that they are raising.....to eat 
3. WE GOT TO GO TO PORTLAND AND DO BAPTISMS AT THE TEMPLE!!! It was so amazing. We went with Sister Austin and her daughter Abby who went for the first time. It was really such a big blessing and I feel so lucky to have been able to go. The Portland temple is beautiful. 
4. Not much a highlight since it's so sad but we said bye to our ZL Elder Robins who left for Peru. It was such a bummer for our whole zone but we are so happy he gets to go to his OG assignment. 

Anyways I'm so sorry that this is getting put out so late but Pdays just fly by. It's the absolute worst and I will never stop my fight to get it to be all day but I hope you are all doing great! You know the drill. Remember to say your prayers, read your scriptures, wear your mask, and get your vaccines if you can!!

Love you all!!!
Sister Crouch

  Hi guys! Hope you guys all had a great week! Our week was so busy but if was nice because we got so much done. I am really starting to get in a groove of missionary work to the point where I hope I get to train next transfer because I think it would be a blast! We are keeping busy with tons of service and member lessons which is good! Its nice to get out of the apartment and feel useful.  Highlights of the week! 1. We got to have interviews with President. He probably thinks I'm bonkers but he was laughing the whole time so I think thats a good sign hehe 2. We got to teach a new person David! He is super cool and really nice so we are hoping to continue our lessons.  3. We got to do a tour of the Laie temple with our friend Jeff. He has COVID and stage 4 cancer so he's very quarantined right now but he absolutely loved it.  4. We got to walk Sadie and Candy again and their owner made us charm bracelets. She's very much a retired hippy because she says groovy and ra...

Heyy everyone! This was another really good week. I can't remember half the things we did but that just means we stayed busy :) I finally feel like I'm getting into the groove of things and we are getting a ton of new missionaries next transfer so I'm hoping I will be able to train soon.  Highlights this week!! 1. We served at Butte Creek Mill in Eagle Point with the zone which is a historic mill that burned down.  2. Sister Hill filmed a video story so we got to hang out with the social media elders again. They are super fun to be around and they were able to join our member lesson yesterday.  3. We didn't get enough members to share posts this week so we had to brush our teeth with flour, salt, and pepper as punishment. It was gross but not as bad as eating the half cup of mayo.  4. We played volleyball with the STLs this morning!!! Always a good time  5. I made 14 loaves of rosemary bread this week and we took it to some ward members and it was great to see e...
