There's way too many names I came up with for this one (1/1/24)

 Heyo!!!!! What's up all!! Sister Hersom is back baby!! Whoop whoop!!! First and foremost, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! Here's to 2024!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎊🎊🍾🍾 Anyway, this week was absolutly insane and fun and just the regular Western Hills wacky!! And honestly it feels like so much happened, but then almost nothing happened at the same time. Although ther are some highlights so, here we go!!

Highlights:
☆Sister Richmond is AMAZING!!!! Love her so much!!! 
☆We went to a members house for dinner and it was amazing!! They had a little one year old who wanted me to hold so I could play with him 🥹 Ultimately the missionary in me won over and I did really good at trying not to just scoop him up. Thankfully both parents had served missions only a few years before, so they knew and understood. 
☆I got to see elder Dujardin this week as the French district has district council the same time that we do, so that was cool.
☆We got to help pack commissary for other missionaries! It's was so fun! I know what your all getting at zone conference 😈😂
☆I saw president at church on Sunday and I was shocked until I remembered that he's in this ward too!🤦‍♀️ Oh boy, this is going to take some getting used too
☆RONALD GOT BAPTIZED!!!!🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩😍😍🌊🌊
☆Ronald is a short, very sweet, blonde guy, and his friend group looks like they belong to a biker gang, it's hilarious 😂 


Friends:
☆Ronald is now a new member, so he no longer counts as a teaching Friend, because he's a new member friend
☆We met a person over cold texting and they said that they would like a church tour, so hopefully we'll be able to do that this week!

Spiritual thought:
As it's a new year, obviously I've been thinking about goals! This week on the radio, the dj was saying that people focus on one big yearly goal, but they should be breaking it up into monthly goals. That way you can do if, and it feels more attainable! So this year I have one big goal, but I'm breaking it up into one part of it that I can focus on every month. It makes it feel so much better and sooo much more attainable. And as always, when you make and start to work on your goals, remember to involve Heavenly Father so he can help you attain them!

Well I really don't have much else to say, so Happy New Year! Hope that you've had a great start to the new year, and that it continues to be great!! Have a great week!!

Love Sister Alex Hersom!

  Howdy all! I hope you had an exciting week! I know I did, so let's get started!! Highlights: ☆Tuesday we had district council because transfers are on Thursdays now instead of Fridays. So fun! We had a good quickish council and then Elder Reynolds had a surprise for us. Sister Lilya was getting ready to go home, and apparently when a missionary goes home he does this. We played Jepordy! Yep! It was actually really fun! Sadly I can't remember who won and who lost, but I do remember it was really, really close.  ☆After that we had district lunch!! We went to El Toro, which is a Mexican place, and it was good!  ☆Sadly after that I got sick. Not from the restaurant, I just did. Monday I went to bed with a small scratch in my throat and when I woke up Tuesday morning, it was worse. Sad day. So I spent some sick time.  ☆We did however get to go to a member meal with the Andersons! I love them! They're so fun!!  ☆Tuesday evening we got a call from the APs. And Sister...

The mystery of the stuff on my bottoms (6/24/24)

 Hey, hey, hey everyone!!! Another week has flown by and slowly! Idk if that makes sense, so basically it was another fast week with a few slow days! I hope that you all had a fantastic week! And I hope that your not skeletons on the ground beacuse you melted from the the heat! (Hehehehehehe! 🤣🤣) But seriously I hope that your not dying from the heat too much! Anyways, let's read about the week, shall we? Highlights: ☆ZONE CONFERENCE!!!!! It was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Good!!! It was definitely the thing I needed and it did not disappoint!! ☆I opened my ketchup at Zone conference by myself!! (I know that doesn't sound like an accomplishment, but it is. Every Zone conference I have to ask my comp for help to open it, because my hands are slick from opening my sandwich and pulling it out.) But this time, I did it by myself and didn't realize it until Sister Hanamaikai asked me if I opened it. When she learned I did, she said that she was proud of me! 😊😊😆 Man I...
