IT'S JUNE25TH AND I HAVE TRANSFER NEWS!
 
Sister Argueta is going to Lone Mountain (my very first area) to be with Sister Badger (my MTC companion)! Sister Shaw will be my new companion. She's coming from Lone Mountain and being with Sister Badger...so Sister Argueta and Sister Shaw are really just swapping places!
 
I'm soooo sad to see Sister Argueta go! I've been blessed enough to have 3 months with each companion until now. We only had 1 transfer together and it was definitely NOT enough! I LOVE HER. She accpets me for who I am and she makes me laugh all the time! We have such a great friendship and I will miss being with her 24/7!!! Everybody said we were such a good team!! :( We were shocked to hear about transfer calls! I completely thought we were staying together. I'm excited for her to go to a great place though! I know that transfers are inspired and the Lord puts us where we need to be!!
 
And I'm excited to have Sister Shaw! She's been in the field just one transfer less than me! New companions bring new adventures!! I know that we'll have great times together! I loooooooooove getting to know other sisters and creating special memories together. Sister Shaw will be my 5th companion in the field and I'm pumped for the good times and hard work that will come!! oh and...Sister Argueta and I were "the short sisters!" But that's about to change. I'm the shortest sister in the mission (and Sister Argueta was 2nd shortest) and Sister Shaw is the tallest! I'll send pics next week of us together!
 
ALSO...The mission is officially spliltting this week! CRAAAAAZY!!! We're all sooooo sad to be split from all our friends but this is an exciting time in the history of these missions! A lottttt of changes are about to happen and it's so exciting to be a part of!
 
And my beloved trainer is going home! The end of her mission has come and I'm SOOOOO sad to see her go! I know that life moves on and she'll be a great example (as USUAL!!) of RM life to me. haha! Sister Sprouse played such a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE role in my development as a missionary, and in turn the way I've trained other missionaries,  and ultimately my whole life!!! I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE HER! I know that the Lord sent her into my life for mannnnnny reasons and I'm soooo grateful to have been her companion!
 
The Lord truly has blessed me with wonderful companions. I can honestly say that I love eeeaaaach one of them! Sister Sprouse, Sister Wood, Sister Firmage, and Sister Argueta all mean so much to me! I've learned a lot from them and I know I'll learn a lot from all my future companions too!
 
The gospel is GREAT!!! We are sooooooooo blessed to have it in our lives!!!! Go out and share the good news of the gospel! The Lord knows EACH one of us and He loves us all!!! :)
