Happy Thanksgiving! (11/25/24)

 Hello, hello everyone! I hope you've all had a fantastic week!! I hope it was filled with things to be grateful for and blessings in abundance!! This week was so fast-slow, it was crazy! Let's get into it!!


Into it:
☆Wednesday we had interviews with President Rasmussen! They went well! Sister Rasmussen also pulled us aside and talked to us! 🥰 I had no idea why she wanted to talk to me until she said that President always gets to talk to us and she wanted a turn too! I love them!❤️🥰 My interviews went well! And President told me we'd set up a time for my departing interview, so not my last one! 
☆Thursday we went to the farm! It was good! They had someone else feeding the animals so we winterized some stalls and pens! It was fun! 
☆It also snowed for the first time on Thursday!! Yay for snow!! I'm excited because of the change in weather. It's cold and that means the holidays!!🥳🥳 
☆Friday we had exchanges! They were pretty fun! We had a member meal with the parents of some member who live in my ward! Crazy! 
☆Church was good on Sunday! We had some friends show up so that was good! 

Quotes: 
Unfortunately I didn't write any again. Sorry guys! 😥

Friends:
☆Debbie is doing good! She's back in New York for Thanksgiving with family! 
☆Kathy is good. She didn't come to church yesterday though...
☆Kiryn is also doing good, her member friends are out town so her ride wasn't here. That's OK, we'll have a lesson this next week! 
☆James we met with this week and he came to church again! Yay! 

Spiritual thought:
Well it's Thanksgiving this week! So you can probably guess what my thought is this week. Yep! Gratitude! Being grateful is such a life changer! When I was in Beavercreek and we had to walk beacuse we were low on miles and it was hot, I would stop for a minute and list 5 things I was grateful for. It never changed my circumstances, but it did change my outlook! It always made me feel better and gave me a better attitude! So this week I would encourage you to find 5 different things every day that you're grateful for! 

Well my friends, that's all for now! We have district activity today! We're doing chopped! So it'll be fun! I hope you all have a fantastic week and a happy Thanksgiving!! 
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!!! It's cool to see! ☆Sister Roberts loves to take pictures of me wearing my sunglasses, it...

Trio life in Beavercreek (3/11/24)

  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...
