Thanks for the goat. I got it about three times 😊🐐 cute. Sorry that I just never feel lie emailing. I want to all Monday until I actually sit down to do it. I'm glad you at least have one daughter home to be with you. Or two, but natty is still living there 24/7. Love you! And jacques and benson, but they are worse at emailing than I am. And natty. I love her too. And Chelsey. Because she's at home.
❤️ Rachel

Dear Rachel,Well, this has been quite a week.After chelsey's flight delay, we weren't sure when she would get to Vegas, but we got in the car and started driving anyway. She called us before we got to Caliente to say she was in Seattle. So we kept going. We had a few hours to kill after we got to Vegas, but since it was July 4th, we didn't do much. Just Home Depot and Toys R Us. Then we ate at sonic. Then we waited at the airport for a couple of hours. But at least the airport was air conditioned! The car said it was 107 while we were there. Chelsey got off the plane and got her luggage and we were on our way home. We got to Alamo just as they were doing their fireworks, so we did get to see fireworks this year. We got home about 11:30.Tuesday was a normal day for me. Taryn and Ashton in the afternoon.Wednesday was another day. Natty and I had eye appointments that afternoon. I am getting bi-focals. Yeah.Thursday we had Remi and Keldyn and Taryn and Ashton. They all played with Natty until Grandma called to see if Natty could come play with Ashlee. Natty was glad to go, but the kids were sad to see her leave. Especially Remi.We have a tarp at the bottom of the playground slide and put the hose on it with some soap. The boys love it.Megan and all her kids were at grandma's that afternoon. Jacques and Benson went to hang with Camden, so they didn't see them. Chelsey, Natty, and I went on the Echo hike with Megan and her bunch. Addy stayed with Grandma, but the other 6 all went. It was a lot of fun. Cody and Brandon climb like you do. They were all over the rocks. West and Megan and I moseyed along. We took two cars, and parked one at both ends, so we didn't have to walk all the way back.Friday, Jacques left on the scout trip in the morning. Benson decided not to go, even though he helped plan it. He has been a bear lately, not sure why, but I hope he gets over it soon. Then we got your dad ready for work. Finally after everything settled down, we went to Panaca and had a Frehner family bar-b-que at Henry and Shawn's. It was a lot of fun. After we ate, Shawn had a couple of games to play. One was drunken waiter. Two people spin around, then have to carry a tray of drinks. It got pretty crazy, and ended up in a water fight. After that we all went to the spring. I got to sit and watch Crescent and West, and we had fun trying to catch fish and splashing each other. When we left the spring, we went to Grandpa Wadsworth's house to visit with him for a few minutes. He is in Panaca for a month. Ann is staying with him. We didn't stay long, Ann was at a wedding reception, but we planned a party for the next night.So on Saturday, we cleaned house, rested, watched tv, then headed down for our "party". Dinner, games, and popcorn. Natty picked some games from our house, HP Uno, Apples to Apples, and Take 5. We had fun visiting and gaming.Grandma has West and Addy while Megan has girls camp. Church was fun, especially Primary. West knew he wasn't at "his" church. He didn't want to sit with his class, so he layed on the floor. Addy helped me lead, sat with ShaRee, and helped Grandma play the piano.Okay. I think that is everything, or at least the highlights. So now you. We haven't heard much from you lately.So if we don't get much, at least answer these:1-How are you and your comp getting along?2-When are transfers, and do you think you will move this time?3-Who are you teaching? How did you meet them?4-Tell us about where you live. What is the area like?5-Are your shoes holding up? Are you holding up?6-Are you getting enough to eat? Tell us about some of your dinner appointments.You get the idea, right?Tonight we were outside playing with the goat. It wanted to climb on the dog house, cuz goats do that. Natty got up on top, and then the goat decided it could jump from a chair to the top. It was so funny to see the goat climbing all over Natty, and around the ledge of the house. I will try to attach the video, but if it doesn't work, laugh anyway.I love you. Work hard. Take care of yourself and your comp. Be safe.Mom
Dear everyone,
Sorry for the lame emails recently. Mostly I just hate writing the
actual emails. And the work is about the same as usual so I guess I'll
just try to answer Mom's questions. And then also tell you a bit more
about my week.
1-How are you and your comp getting along?
Sister Spangler and I get along pretty well. She's not the most
focused missionary in the world, but sometimes neither am I and so we
get really distracted about a lot of things together..
2-When are transfers, and do you think you will move this time?
Transfers are on July 19, I'm 85% sure I'll be staying in Stamford.
3-Who are you teaching? How did you meet them?
The thing about Stamford is that it is a way posh area. So we aren't
teaching many people right now, they are "too rich" for the gospel and
it's really sad to see actually because we really have true happiness
and they don't want it.
4-Tell us about where you live. What is the area like?
In some ways it reminds me of home because it's all countryside, and
we have a car for that reason. But it is definitely not like home
because here the things you plant actually have a reasonable chance of
growing without much effort on your part. Unless the snail or slugs
get to it..
5-Are your shoes holding up? Are you holding up?
My shoes are... Actually, the shoes I bought here I left in Cannock
because there was not much left to them, but since it's summer (ish)
and I have a car, my shoes are working great.
I am holding up. I love what I am doing and that each day I get to
learn and teach a little bit more.
6-Are you getting enough to eat? Tell us about some of your dinner
appointments.
We are getting SO MUCH food. It's at the point where I'm. Considering
asking people to stop. Lots of members give us a a lot of food. So we
usually end up sharing it with our district.
We do a FHE every Monday night with a South African sister and she
takes care of this lady with dementia, who is the sweetest. We always
get some food from her that always seems to end up smelling (and
tasting) a bit like hot dogs..
Also, biggest news, and the reason that I am fairly certain I am
staying in Stamford for at least the next two transfers is that I am
going to be training!!! I get the honour of being somebody's first
companion. It's kind of a terrifying thought, but I know that Heavenly
Father has trusted me with this brand new sister straight from the
mtc.
They come the week after transfers, though, so I don't get my greenie
until July 26. I'm also really excited.
Another big milestone of my mission this week is that I have been told
to work toward my British license.... Because I am the one behind the
wheel now!! And it not actually that bad. A lot smaller and on the
opposite side of the road, but that's about it. It took me about a day
(and a road trip to the mission home for a trainers meeting) to get
used to driving again.
Other news this week, was that my companion was sick all week so I
think we really only left the flat for a dinner appointment, and a few
missionary related meetings. And church. We really only got to do work
on Sunday.... And the cutest story of the week is that I helped a lady
go to church. But not ours. She was old and I helped get out of her
car as she was trying to get to her Methodist church. And it made me
happy that helped her. I absolutely love playing "guardian angel" and
just randomly helping the people around you. 😊
Hope this email makes up for the slacker ones I've been sending. Love
you all and have a fantastic week! ❤️😊😎😍👑
Also, another funny story of Saturday, the day I locked us out of our
flat.....in the rain. Without a car or umbrellas, and sister spangles
waterproof jacket (we were only going down the road to the post office
to get a driving application thing.) for two hours. Until our
wonderful zone leaders were able to drive all the way to save us. But
we found this great walk with basically sums up our morning that day.
😊 she was not very happy with me..
Much love,
Sister Wadsworth
