Chipmonk cheeks, discovery, and 40 day COUNTDOWN!

This week was...interesting. Interesting considering I slept through most of it. That's right, you guessed it, it was the week I got my wisdom teeth out. I have hilarious pictures and videos to prove it but I made my family promis not to post them ANYWHERE! Don't worry you're not missing out on much:) I did indeed get beautiful chipmonl cheeks that are finally going down after 5 days and thank heavens for Advil Liquid gels for getting me through this week! For Reals Though! 

I was lucky enough to feel well enough yesterday to get to go work an event for my dad's office (he's a chiropractor). It went way better than any other event has ever gone! Normally we have only a few people sign up and make appointments, but, we had a TON of people sign up and we have some promising leads for future events! 

I also met a really nice guy who was working a booth and we got to talking about my wisdom teeth. One thing led to another and we started talking about how I am going on a mission. Turns out he is LDS! We had a wonderful covnersation and he gave me some great tips for going on my mission:) It was when I was reading my scriptures that night that I had an epiphany in regards to how the day was going! 

I have had so many missionary oppourtunities and learning experiences that have taught me so much since I've gotten my mission call! I also didn't have better outcomes at our event because I worked more or less than normal. I had better outcomes because Heavenly Father is already blessing immensly! I have been getting so much out of the scriptures recently and I've found patience, courage, faith, understanding, and missionary moments in life every single day. It has been keeping me motivated and focused on eternal perspectives! I cannot wait to get out into the field and teach people about my faith and how they can feel such immense and expounding love from our Heavenly Father and His hand in our lives in every little moment and detail. 

Oh and last, but not least... I HAV E 40 DAYS LEFT!
