TRANSFERS

Szia family!!

I am so excited to get to skype with you this week! I am so excited!  I am excited to see everyone.

Today has been a really crazy day. really crazy! Transfers went a lot different than we thought. A couple weeks ago, president smith told sister kennedy that she would be staying in Buda with me and we would be getting another companion. but something must have happened and we are all getting split up. Sister Kennedy is training again and opening a new area for sisters in szeged and sister Larsen is going to nyeregháza and opening another new area for sisters. I'm a little stressed out because that means I need to know how to get to all our investigators houses and Buda is really big! And i haven't really payed to much attention to where we are going because I thought sister Kennedy would be here. Bad idea on my part. I hope it goes okay. Today is just going to be a crazy day getting everything ready. My new companions are Sister Behunin and Sister Fresh!!!! I am really excited! Sister Fresh was my comp in the MTC so I'm so relieved she is with me again! We really get along! And sister Behunin is just great! She was training my other companion sister Broadhead and she has served with both sister larsen and sister kennedy. I am really excited for it! I just hope I can  remember everything I need to! Just a little stressed about it. And we also found out that they are going to have sister leaders in the mission too - basically like zone leaders who go around and train different sisters. Sister Behunin is one of the new sister leaders so president told me that she will be gone a lot and sometimes for days at a time. So that means that Sister Fresh and I will be teaching, calling people, and everything on our own a lot of the time. Just a little stressful! haha! But I know it will really make me stress and I will really have to learn the language. It will hopefully get me learning it faster and using it more. Its just crazy because we have both only been out for 6 weeks!

Some funny things that happened to us this last week is we went to a family night last night with the cutest family ever! The mom was just recently baptized in December and they have 3 adorable little boys! We taught them about the plan of salvation and at the end I pulled out some pictures of our family and they got SO EXCITED!! All the boys just kept saying 'look! Its a real mormon family!!!' They don't speak any english but that is all that they can say in English. It was really cute! They loved seeing pictures of the family! So people love pictures over here so if you ever want to send me more, feel free too! haha!

Another funny thing that happened yesterday was that we were on our way home and it just started to sprinkle. We just kept walking and then all the sudden it just started to DOWN POUR!!! and i mean DOWN POUR! It was so crazy! We were close to a bridge so we ran underneath it. I have never seen so much water in my life. We were there for about 10 minutes and we really needed to get home. It had started to let up just a little and so we figured that it was just continue to slowly let up. So we decided to run home. It didn't let up at all. It poured even harder as soon as we left the bridge! Then we had to wait for the light to turn green so we could cross the street. We were standing a little too close to the street and this huge van came by and got us SOAKED!!!! My skirt was drenched and so were my shoes. I had to keep a hold of my skirt cause i thought it was going to fall off! Then as soon as we get to our apartment door, it just stops raining. It was so funny!!! We were soaked and we all had a pretty good laugh.

I also had the terrifying experiencing of cutting someones hair. Ya so terrifying! Sister Kennedy needed a haircut so she told me to cut her hair and so i did! I was terrified. But it turned out good! Thanks for the new haircutting sisscors mom! They work great! I'm just learning all sorts of new things out here!

I see that you all saw Noémi's video. She is such an awesome girl! I just love her! She is going to take us on a tour of Buda today so that will be fun! I had no idea they were taking video of us....i thought it may have just been pictures to put in a little book we made for her. I thought it was a really cool movie though!

Things with our investigators are going good. We still aren't sure what to do with the Boston Red Soxs fan. He wont meet with the Pest sisters so we'll see what we will do. There is an older lady who said she wants to be baptized too and she is awesome! She is a sweet lady! But she just wants to know more. We are going to have her set a baptisimal date this week so hopefully that goes good! She has really gotten along well with sister Kennedy so we'll see how she takes it not having her there. We also had another investigator come back and meet with us. He REALLY wants to be baptized and already set up a baptisimal date for himself for June 24. We aren't sure he really understands everything though so we are just taking it slow with him. His parents are really against him getting baptized so we are going to meet with them this week. So hopefully that will turn out okay. We also met with someone from our english class. We met with her and it was such a good lesson! She really felt the spirit and she just kept saying how good she felt. She said she hadn't felt that good in a long time. We were able to explain the spirit to her and she just left a totally different person. she was so HAPPY! That is the amazing blessing of being a missionary...you get to see how the gospel literally brings light and happiness into peoples lives! It was such an awesome experience!

Well I cant think of much else to say. I cant believe I have been here for 6 weeks already! Its crazy how fast time flies!!!! I love it here! I'm going to miss my companions but I am excited to start another transfer too! It will be a little crazy but we will get it figured out!
