GOT OUT THEM RAINBOOTS MOTHER!!!
Hellllllooooooooooooo
Well this week was GRRRREEEAAAATTTT! So we got our new mission president and I hadn't seen a picture of him or anything so when I saw this tall, lurpy, skinny, blonde guy walk through the door it was not what I expected. But the second he started talking it hit me- this was the EXACT mission president that I need! I could have been called to any mission in the world and it would have been the same work but this guy was SOOOO cool and exactly the president I need!!! They remind me a lot of the Dunns in some ways. And I think all the missionaries in South Africa probably felt the same way when the Dunns arrived. They are so cute, energetic, and we have so many of the same interests and he's just so fun! Their family likes boating, making movies of their family, their daughter is a cheerleader in Ogden and will be staying in Utah to finish her senior year. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! President Hall was like, "I want to look you all in the face and tell you I love you before we start so we go to the gym and we all get a chance to meet him. It gets to my turn and I feel like i'm walking through a wedding line or funeral line but he was soooo nice! He's like ,"Hello Hermana Wagstaff. I already stalked you on Facebook but where are you from again?" I'm like, "Guadalajara Mexico." and he grabs me by both shoulders and says, "You're the blondest Mexican I know!"
Him and his wife are thee cutest couple I think I have ever seen! He could not stop hugging her and saying the cutest things about his wife! He was seriously obsessed with her! I want to be just like them! It was so cute!
We got flooded in on Tuesday and couldn't leave the apartment.... ohhhh texas bless it's heart!
OHHHH WE ALSO GOT TO DO SOMETHING SOOOO FUN! We volunteered at this church to hand out food to the homeless people. They lined up for blocks and blocks and blocks. and it felt like trick-or-treating. A little bit of a holiday mix up I'd say! I was in charge of putting the cabbage in their little baskets! At first it started out I could only put two in but you all know what happens at the end of Halloween night. You just start dumping candy in people's buckets because you have so much left over so those peeps at the end of the line will be eating cabbage for daaaayyyyssss! I think I gave one guy ten cabbage thingys whatever they are called heads? who knows. He could barely walk with them! I'm gonna be the best house to stop at on Halloween!
The rest of the week not much happened... My comp is sick so we had to stay in all week. It was really rough BUT I had my patriotic blankey that kept me company and made everything better! I was trying to be as happy as bubble gum on the fourth of July because after all it was the fourth of july!! So I ate some bubble gum and I made my companion wear a bow! She said that was the first time she's ever worn one! How crazy is that? I found a bat under my bed (kinda scares me that I have that)! Our walls slowly turned a darker tan each time I stared at them. And oh man the Alma chapters have never gone by so quickly. I've also learned I'm a terrible doctor... that's why I am not going into that field (can't even tell the difference between advil and a skittle now that I can swallow them). When my comp said we could go out a bird pooped on her head, she fell in a hole, and almost got tackled by a drunk man! and I almost peed my pants. It was awesome!!
As you can see we had a bit of a holiday mix up this week! With the halls coming in, trick-or-treaters, and the fourth of July dead bed! Needless to say, I love being a missionary! Everyday is an adventure! We talked to Christian's Bishop and the missionaries in New York- he's doing awesome!!! Makes me so happy!
I love you all so much!
love, Natsy
