"Lets go to Disneyland!"

Aye, family, what's the haps, yo? 

Mom- I can't even put into words how jealous I am of you. Seriously? Your life this week was so magical. I think that perhaps, me, you, and whoever else wants to join, should go to Disneyland November 2017. I don't know, seems like a pretty good idea to me. I'm in if you're in. ;) I'm glad you had the best week. You most definitely deserved it. I can't wait to hear more about it through snail mail. I love you, Mom! Dad- I'm glad your hip is doing better. Running does make ones bowel movements and life better.  I love you. Keep being awesome, Dad. Emily-  That's awesome you joined the Outdoor Club. Tell Mr. Morris that I say hi. Haha, I feel so cool that you posted about me on insta. I'll totes def like it when I get home. I'm sorry your hip still hurts.I'm still praying for ya, cutie. I love you so much. 

Quotes of the week:

1.) "My companion is a very crazy and awkward girl." -Sister Green Ya know, sometimes I'm not exactly sure what Sister Green thinks of me, but she basically nailed explaining me to her family in her weekly email, so that's good. That's me; crazy and awkward and a girl.  

2.) "Sister Reddish, we love you so much!" -Sister Peralta It's crazy how much I love the people in Ohio. It really is. Like people here are weird and crazy and toothless and have really dirty houses, and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. 

3.) "Man, you two girls are cool." -Toni (potential investigator) Thanks, Toni. I'm trying to stay hip and such. The only problem is that I am most definitely failing at staying hip and such. One time Dad and I were talking in the car and he was like "Sometimes kids need to be bullied a little bit to realize that they're big weirdo's". Yup, that's me. Bring on the bullying when I get home. 

4.) "Heavenly Father, please help me not be grouchy even though today was THE WORST!" -Me This week was rough beans, folks. ROUGH BEANS. We had a day that literally everything fell through. Those days suck butt (not even sorry about using that language...okay, maybe a little sorry). I am so happy it's a new week. SO happy. 

5.) "You have the countenance of a 30 year old woman." -Louann Didtsch (new investigator) Yikes. 30 year old? Seriously, Louann? I mean she meant it as a compliment, but seriously? Again, bring on the bullying.

6.) "Life is to be enjoyed not just endured." -President Hinckley Amanda sent me this quote in her letter to me this week. There were times this week when I was grouchy and I was not enjoying myself. Not one bit. But, I only got 14 months left of this experience, and I definitely don't want that 14 months to be enduring. That would suck. This also applies to everybody. Who wants to "endure" life? Lame people, that's who. We've got to enjoy life, because there's so much of it to enjoy. Because of Jesus Christ there's always, always, always something to be enjoyed. This life is great because of Him. 

Thanks for being the best family on the whole earth. I am so, so grateful that we are together forever. Have the best weeks ever, and I will do the same. I sure love you guys. 

Love, 

Sister Reddish
