It's not good news, it's the best news ever!🎶🥹🥹🥳🎉 (7/22/24)

 Hello lovely lads and lasses! Hope that your not dying to hard in that 100+ degree weather!  I also hope that you had a great week! I received the actual best news ever this week, so let's go exploring!


One of the biggest highlights of my mission:
☆WE CAN GO TO THE TEMPLE!!!!!!🥹🥳❤️🎉😍😍🥳🥹🎉🥹🥳❤️🥹🥳❤️🥹🥹🥹🥹🥳🎉 The 1st Presidency changed our standards to say that we can now go quarterly! I haven't been to the temple in about 13 months and I know it's for everyone's benefit, but I can't help feeling that's it's a blessing just for me! I seriously can't wait to go!! I nearly cried when president Rasmussen told us on our weekly mission huddle zoom meeting! I literally can't wait to go!! 

Highlights:
☆District council! I took some donuts that I bought on clearance and the elders loved it! There are 3 companionships of elders in my district. So 6 elders and me and my comp. And it's so funny to watch the elders! 
☆The get to know you question was: who would win in a fight; superman or voldamort? Most of the elders said superman, except elder Bringhurst and his trainee. They say voldamort. Mine and Sister LeSueur's answer? Me! Bc I'm real and they're not! (Lol 😂) 
☆Thursday was a whole vibe. We went to a park thsy evening and after talking to the people there, we climbed the big hill and enjoyed the breeze and view of the sunset at the top and did some phone work. Then we went to the Liberty Center and they were having a free concert! It was sooo fun!!🤩
☆Friday we learned we can go to the temple!🥹 
☆We had some fire member meals this week! The members are really excited that we're here! We love this ward already! 
☆Saturday we were at a park and found a little trail, so we took a little nature and adventure walk! It was so pretty! 

Quotes:
7/15-7/21
Shut up Sam! - A lady yelling at her dog. It just sounded like a movie quote and it was funny 
I love mans pants! - Sister LeSueur talking about the basketball shorts she just bought
1, 2, 3 up to infrinity - Sister LeSueur singing a Christian song funny 
I got the man pants on tonight! - Sister LeSueur 
*Shakes hips
I love the hip shake - me 
Oh yeah! My hips dont lie! - Sister LeSueur 
Oh yeah, that sounds like doctrine - Elder Bringhurst 

Friends:
☆We are going to be meeting with our friend Cameron 3x a week! Hopefully this will help us all! 
☆We had a church tour with Ryan this week and he's pretty chill! 

Spiritual thought:
This week I've been thinking a lot about how everything in this gospel points to and is made possible by Jesus Christ. This gospel is full of so many good things. Sometimes as members we start to really focus on one aspect of the gospel. Which can be good, but sometimes I find myself forgetting that this is all possible beacuse of Jesus Christ! The temple covenants, possible because of Jesus Christ. The sacrament, possible because of Jesus Christ. Prayer, in the name of Jesus Christ. So as you do your gospel studies this week, just remember: this is all because of Jesus Christ!

Well dear friends and family, I think that's it for this week! I'd love to hear about what's going on in your life! Feel free to shoot me an email! Anyway love you all! Write next week! 
Love Sister Alex Hersom!

From babies to mamas (7/15/24)

  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...

 Hey-ho people-o!! (There's a new one for ya!!) Hope that you've all been well, and that it hasn't been to overwhelmingly hot for ya! My week was good, honestly pretty uneventful as of big things so. All good, all good! So let's see what happened: Highlights:  ☆It poured rain on Tuesday and I absolutely loved it!! ☆The weather has cooled down since it's been raining, so that's been nice! ☆It's also been windy lately which is nice when we're outside! ☆Sister Roberts thought it would be funny to scare me, so she did. And I let out this really delayed, really dramatic scream. She didn't even scare me that bad, yet here we are. (You better watch out Sister Roberts, payback is coming) ☆We had District council this week! Yay! (We didn't have it last week because of Zone conference) ☆We had some good lessons with friends this week!  ☆The circus came to town!!!

  Hello! Hello! How was the week? Was it good? Or hard? Or in between? I'd love to hear about it!! Anyway my week was good, from my title toy can honestly probably guess what it's about, so here's the full story! Highlights: ☆Tuesday I hit 9 months!! And that was fun! Honestly the day was kinda rough as Facebook kicked everyone off and I couldn't remember my password and ultimately Sister Hopes had to get a new Facebook. But aside from that we got a ton of balloons from it, and Chick-fil-A! So, ya know, good! ☆Wednesday we waited alllllllllll day(!) For transfer news that wouldn't come til after 9pm. So when we finally forgot that they were coming, transfer news came! So Sister Hopes and I stayed and we also got another companion! And I'm senior comp now! (😁😱)  ☆District council!!! It was so good!! And fun!! And the testimonies were fire, and so was Sister Tolman getting her spirit animal! (Which we got to help with, as elder Stevenson asked us for suggestions...
