Adventures of the Holladay family…
Well family I’m going to be honest. I am still kind of sleepy from my nap, and I can’t remember what happened this week.
I know there was a hello kitty sock miracle. Where I was able to relate to a 13 year-old potential investigator over hello kitty. Continue reading “Two Thanksgiving Dinners”
I like how dramatic Rebekah is about going home when I have less time left than she does. I’m honestly hoping I can see at least one more baptism before I go home. As soon as Christmas lights starts I’m only going to have around 3 hours in my area every day. The rest of my time is going to be studying, eating, and the visitors center. Hna Watkins is full field so we haven’t been in the visitor center since transfer day but we go back on Thanksgiving the day Christmas Lights start. Continue reading “bikes are slow”
Well, I am pretty sick today. Hna Noble is getting transferred out of the area. I’m getting a full field sister. Hna Watkins her dad is serving as a mission president in San Jose, California. I am also going on bikes for the first time in my mission. I told Elder Nielsen (he’s in charge of cars and bikes) that there was no way I was buying a bike for 2 transfers. I also called him crying and recounted the story of the one day I spent on bikes in Valencia. He told me he’d find me a bike, make sure it fits me, and then teach me how to ride it.

Sorry, I don’t have any time to write now because I spent forever uploading photos. Sis Kranendonk is always really good about taking photos and this is the first pday we’ve had with her this transfer besides the day of zone activity. There’s a picture of almost all the zone in their costumes. I was the mission president’s wife, and Hna Noble was some purple caped villain. She wanted to be a dinosaur but it didn’t really work out.
On Halloween day we had district meeting, then went to help a member make day of the dead bread, and then visited Dulce for a bit. Continue reading “This is Halloween”
Ready for the huge miracle for this week?
I don’t think you’re ready for this.
But I’m going to tell you because I’m running out of computer time.

I don’t feel like writing an email this week. I’m trying to talk Hna Noble into forwarding part of her email to me to send. I have been sickish for a while, but today it’s a lot worse. I think it’s because Hna Noble and I were trying to clean the house today and there’s so much dust. We live with members so, usually we just stick with our bedroom and bathroom, but they’re out of town for a funeral so we decided to try and clean up for them while they’re gone. Progress is slow so far, and I coughed up some black stuff afterwards. I’m assuming it’s dust. Continue reading “doorbell ditching”
DULCE AND PASCUAL GOT MARRIED!
I feel like this is the first step in taking this area back from Satan. A little melodramatic… maybe, but this is my life. Continue reading “Wedding With a Bounce House”
So, last week, I forgot to tell you that Elder Bednar came and I got to shake his hand. He said, “Good morning, Sister Holladay.” At first I was geeking out that he knew my name but then I remembered we always where name tags. Continue reading “Missionary equals no shame”
