Cat Boogers

Hey family (:

Big news. 

I'm being transferred, to the Columbia 2nd ward, 

my companion will be Sister Mecham.  I'm excited!

But, I'm heart broken to leave my Glen Burnie. It's 

actually really hard, because they're closing the area 

to Sisters.  There's only going to be 1 set of Elders.

This transfer is crazy. They're taking us out, AND 

taking the Elders out, and putting 2 new Elders in.

Not going to lie, it's really hard for me to leave...

but, I know that the Lord needs me elsewhere. 

After going to bed last night, pretty upset, I woke 

up this morning with the song, "I'll go where you 

want me to go.." stuck in my head.  Alright..fine. haha. 

I'm really excited to go to Columbia! Sister Simsonsen 

served there awhile ago..so she'll be telling me all 

about everyone (:

Thanksgiving was amazing. We spent some time 

with Sister Hosner and her family, it was so much 

fun! Her family is hilarious. Then we went to the 

Hanratty's. SO MUCH FOOD. haha.  The Elders were 

there, too.  The funniest thing happened...

So, the Hanratty's have cats. They have one, named 

Jake, that LOVES the missionaries. He also has a cold. 

Which means, yep...cat boogers. haha.   He had a boogie 

hanging out of his nose, and was trying to climb all 

over us. So, I caught him with the intentions of just 

putting him on the ground.  But, then Elder Hall 

grabbed a napkin..  So there we are..me holding the 

cat's head in my hand, and Elder Hall wiping it's nose..

hahahaha. It really was so hilarious.  The room went 

silent while this took place. I can't get over it....it was 

SO funny!  Better believe that made it into the journal! 

hahaha.  So good.

This week has actually had a lot of funny things happen..

We've had a lot of fun, which I'm glad, because it was  

Sister Simonsen's last week. It's weird that she'll be in 

Utah in 3 days.  I'm going to miss her. 

Welp. That's about it. (:

I love you family!!

Photo 12: Bishop & Sister Yocum (Cool story about Bishop. He's an amazing artist, and writer. I told him about a painting that I think would be cool for him to paint,

and he's going to! I told him last night, and he broke out his sketch book to make a sketch of it.  If you've seen the painting "While Mary sleeps.." That's his. Look it up!
