First of all let me start out by saying Happy Belated Birthday to dad and Paige! I hope both of you had a great day!

This week has been great! The work is going very well and we are having fun here in Kentucky! So this week a member called us and asked if we would sing at the next relief society enrichment night and Sister McDermott said yes. I don't know why she would say such a thing but now we will be singing. Its going to be interesting! Haha. After PEC on Wednesday we went into the chapel to pick a song and practice it. Tessa ( a members daughter) came in a few minutes later and was like "girls, I will teach you how to sing. Say LA" haha she is seven and so funny! We love to hang out with her! While we were practicing our song Tessa was making videos on my camera! They are so funny! I will have to send them home if I can! Tessa definitely keeps things interesting here! Love her!

One of our recent converts has a puppy, kittens and a turtle! So obviously we love going to her house! We also love visiting with her! She is awesome! We did a team up with her the other day and it was great! We went and met and visited with a friend of hers and she was great! Also the member is prego and its so cute! She has a cute little baby bump! It reminds me of Sarah and Rach! I love it!

The members here are so great! One of our less actives is so funny! Everytime we visit with her and we tell her something that she didnt know or had forgotten she says "oookkkaaayyy." it is so hilarious! Also She came to church yesterday!!!! YAY!! It was so great! I love it when LA or investigators come to church! Its the best!

If I picked favorites ( which obviously I dont ;) ) Candy would be one of them! She is the sweetest lady ever! And she is so funny! I love going to visit her and talk to her! She is the best! Also she is so pretty and talented! When I come back to visit, I am definitely going to be visiting her! She is the BEST!

The other day we were driving down the road and we ran over something and our tire was making a weird noise so we drove over to the Funks to have Elder/President Funk look at it to see what was wrong. Turns out we ran over a bolt and it went straight into the tire. So that was fun. We had to go get it fixed and so we were out of a car the next morning until like 1 in the afternoon!

Sister McDermott hit her five month mark on Saturday! Woot Woot! Also I hit my one month on Thursday! So Crazy! Time flies when you're working hard! Also playing hard! I love the work and people out here!

Sorry for the scatter brained email this week! Love you all and thanks for the letters and emails! I love them all! Yuns are great! Have a great week and remember to read your scriptures and pray! You will be blessed for it! Serve others and HELP THE MISSIONARIES!

Love y'all!

P.S. Also I almost forgot to tell you! I dyed my hair! Last p day we were with Courtney and we had nothing to do so sister mcdermott was like lets dye your hair! So I said ok! Then we went to Walmart and picked a color and went back to Courtney's classroom(she is a teacher) and dyed it. And guess how we rinsed it out? In the janitors closet! #ghetto It was awesome! Love it!
