Transfer 5 Week 2

So My comp and I were talking and it totally feels like I've been in this area forever because I've gotten to know the area and the ward pretty fast it just feels that way! I love Coquille! It is seriously fantastic. More to know about this area. Everyone has at least 12 cats. There are spider webs everywhere. There is a high school right around the corner from where we live so I lost my belly pudge. Yes that was an important statement for everyone to read. Oh and yes we did get the Elders this week. They are great. Elder Ayre and Elder Smith. Ayre has been out 7 weeks and Smith is brand new new new. We are all heading to Eugene this week for a new missionary training, in separate cars. The work in this ward is going great! The members really are incredible! Feeding two sets of missionaries every night at different houses! We already had a funny moment with the Elders. We were teaching a lesson and they were out tracting and they tracted into our lesson. And their phone has the same ring tone as ours does so its confusing when I hear there phone go off.
On the 4th we had a BBQ at a members house and met some incredible people! It was a lot of fun and we saw some fireworks but the trees got in the way for the most part. We are still settling in with the Elders and who they will teach and who we will teach but we are all excited for the growth which will take place in this area! It's going to be amazing!!! 


So more on sis. Aldous. She is from Alpine. That makes 3 comps from Utah. Oh and the Elders are both from UT also which is funny because this ward gets all the UT missionaries. She loves food and is not picky. She is one of those 'always sincerly nice people.' She never, ever, ever focus' on the bad. She always finds nice things to say about everyone and she is so driven. Like. Super driven. She loves the people and the work and she is a wonderful missionary. I seriously don't have to do any training with her because she came out into the world with a name tag on, pretty much. And I don't think she would ever get mad either.


I love you all!
 
 
P.S More about who we are working with next week.... when we get it all settled with having the Elders here and everything. We pretty much got it all worked out.
