CRAWFISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sister Boyer, immediately after drinking one sip of beet juice, "why are my fingers tingling??  My body is not used to this." 

ZONE CONFERENCE!!!  Always a good time with President Amos.  He is ALMOST as perfect as my dad. (NOT a compliment I give lightly.) BUT the man is so so inspired & so so kind. 

Except I'm HOPING he was mistaken when he told me to buckle up because my mission is about to get HARD???????????  I'm so excited!!!!

Send prayers my way. 

Abbie told us she sees dead people. 

Our BRAND NEW friend Pam texted us and told us that her cousin was recently found in an oxidation pond in Natchitoches...dead... 

HORRIBLE RIGHT????? I turned my phone to show Sister Boyer, AND MY THUMB BETRAYED ME!!!!!!   That bad boy SLIPPED & hit an automatic response!!!!  This woman just told me her cousin DIED and I texted back "Oh, that's great!!!" THATS GREAT?!?!?!!? 

Pam, I am so sorry. So so sorry. 

Maybe teaching her the plan of salvation will make her not hate me. 

KYLA AND HER WHOLE FAMILY CAME TO OUR WARD MARDI GRAS PARTY, CHURCH, AND THE STAKE ACTIVITY!!!!!!!!!!! 

the ward Mardi Gras party was a BLAST. Beads were FLYING, crawfish were dying, and my whole table was crying laughing. At me. And how bad I am at preparing (preparing?? peeling?? opening????) crawfish!!! 

I ate until my fingers BLED & my lips looked like Kylie Jenner's. 

Sister Boyer, 3 hours after drinking one sip of beet juice, "My stomach is mad at the world right now" 

We taught our friend Gary Allen. He is a sweet older man & has completely loved the book of mormon. We were planning on teaching him the plan of salvation, but RIGHT as we started teaching him the Spirit said, "SILLY GOOSE!!! Teach the Gospel of Jesus christ!!! And invite him to be baptized!!!" 

SO THAT'S WHAT WE DID & he is now praying about a date for baptism!!! He's SO ready. 

I absolutely love when people find answers to their questions in the book of mormon. THAT book answers EVERY question we could ever have. What's the purpose of life?? Oh just open up to Alma chapter 34!! You want to know how to be happy?? Bro read 4th Nephi. 

The Book of Mormon was written for YOU!!! To help YOU!!! It's PACKED with guidance & direction. 

ALSO it's JAM PACKED with the Spirit!!!!!! If you want to feel peace, love, joy, happiness, & every other good feeling on the planet earth JUST READ IT!!!! If that doesn't work...PRAY & KEEP READING cause it will. 

I love this work and I love you
