Idk what happened to time... (12/2/24)

 Like seriously how is it December already!?!? And again! How is it December already, again!?!? I don't even know! 

Anyway, welcome back to the weekly! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and great week! My week was pretty chill. So let's go!

Things that went:
☆We had our district activity on Monday! We played chopped. Which basically turned into, we all made lunch for each other. But it was still really good! 
☆Tuesday it was our turn to lead the Book of Mormon class and it was really good! 
☆Wednesday was farm day! I got to show Sister Hunter how to do some of the feeding and it was fun! I love the farm! 
☆Happy Thanksgiving!! Thursday was good! We still had district council because we literally had like nothing else to do. Then we cleaned the baptismal font because there was a baptism on Saturday! So we did that! It was fun! Later that night we went to the Cindrics for dinner! (Love them) They had most of their kids there. (Except their missionary and the one who lives in Washington) it was crazy fun! Oh! The elders were there too! So fun! So after dinner we helped with dishes then we went downstairs and played pool against the elders! And we won! (We won because Elder Cummings hit the 8 ball into the pocket before it was supposed to so) but we still won! 
☆Saturday was Mike's baptism!!!🥳🥳 We got to go! And it was so good! Mike was so happy and the spirit was so strong!! It was awesome! 
☆So funny story. After Elder Cummings baptized Mike, he forgot to drain the font. So after the baptism and we're all cleaning up. We realized that the font was still full. Sister Brewer was going to get in to unplug it, but then Seth (new member in Tipp City who loves hanging out with us) was like: Nah, it's all good. I got it" So then Seth gets in the font in his white shirt and suit pants to drain the font! Which is good, but it was even better to watch! It was hilarious! There were some pics taken, so as soon as I get those, they'll be on my Google photos album! After Seth finished draining the font, the elders had some shorts and a t-shirt that he could wear! Honestly it was all just to funny!
☆We then had district lunch, (with Seth) at Chick-fil-A! Yummy! We all crammed into a corner and it was just fun!
☆Church was good! Sister Brewer and I ended up having to lead our Sunday School class because the teacher was out of town, and the elders got sick. So it was a good thing we lead the class on Tuesday. 
☆We also had a really good lesson with Kiryn Sunday afternoon! It was so good! 

Quotes: 
Guys I am so sorry! I totally had some quotes from last week but I dated them wrong so it looked like I didn't have any. So here's 2 weeks worth of quotes!
11/18-11/24
I call all of my homemade stuff crap. *why?* Because its garbage - Elder Johnson
It smells so good. Like crack - Sister Brewer
Very demure, very MINDFUL - Sister Brewer pulling out of the parking lot 
11/25-12/1
Sister Brewer muttering then, *Gasp* HE'S GOT A PLANE! - Sister Brewer in traffic when she saw a someone pulling a plane
Ok, this chip is breaking. My life is falling apart, just like this chip - Sister Brewer 

Friends:
☆Debbie has been out of town with family for Thanksgiving, so we haven't met with her this week. 
☆Kathy were going to stop teaching because you can tell in lessons she's just not interested. 
☆Kiryn is doing so good! She said she wants to work towards baptism. And we had a really cool lesson with her yesterday!
☆James had to work, so he couldn't come to church. Hopefully we get to meet this week!

Spiritual thought:
Merry Christmas all! It's officially the Christmas season! So this week my thoughts are on this special time that we get to celebrate the Saviors birth! Christmas is more than a day. It's more than a season/month. It's a feeling. It's a yearning to do as the Savior would. I once asked my mom why she loves Christmas so much. She told me that it's because of the overall feeling of this time of year. People want to do good. They want to help. The more I paid attention, the more I realized that she was right! People truly want to help and be nicer around this time, even if they don't celebrate Christmas for the same reason we do. I love the feeling of Christmas. I love everything about Christmas, but I truly most love the feeling that's here this special time of year. So even though you're busy this time, shopping, work, parties, all the fun stuff. Make sure you're making time for the real reason this season exists! And that is Jesus Christ!


Alright all, that's all for this week! Thanks for reading and following along! I hope you all have a wonderful week! I'll write again next week! Love you all! 
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!

(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...
