Un Misionero con un Padrastro

Day: first P-Day with my new papi

Pushup Count: 130

Hola mi gente! Como ha estado todo? This week was transfers, and I feel like I've been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. But here we go:

- We didn't know for sure, but there was a chance that Elder Vasquez would get transferred, so we had to run around and take pictures with everyone just in case
- I made a cake - this time I'm really going to go win cake wars, it was so good
- The transfer board was supposed to come out at noon, then they said 2 or 3, and then it didn't come out until 9 pm :/
- We went to Joel's house one night before transfers, and his friend cheated and beat me at magic
- The transfer board came out when we were at Joel's, so that was kinda bittersweet
- We drove all the way to Bakersfield to switch comps and I met Elder Westerby, my new padrastro (step-dad) 
- I saw a license plate that said "13 gallon club" and then right under the name of some blood bank.... 
- Elder Westerby is big into lifting, and I swear we loaded an entire gym into the back of our rav
- I'm learning how to work out - it sucks and I wanna go back to running
- I think all I'm gonna eat this transfer is chicken
- We've had some absolutely crazy interactions with people and I'm starting to realize why some of them haven't been contacted in so long
- We got to watch conference, which was awesome

I feel kinda like I'm starting my mission over, just extremely tired and a little stressed. At least this time I know our friends and the ward members though. I've had to introduce Elder Westerby to all of them and it's been a little tough. It's been a little weird having a companion who actually needs to study Spanish haha, but good to have someone that actually knows grammar rules instead of just someone who just says things instinctively. We're determined to get a baptism this transfer, so I'll keep y'all updated. 

Spiritual Thought:
I loved the conference talk about spiritual face blindness and it got me thinking about my relationship with God and how I really see him. I invite you all to listen to that talk if you haven't yet, and don't forget that God loves you! 

Mucho amor, 
Elder Page
