So it's been a rainy and windy week!!! The wind was howling for like a day straight this past week. It was starting to get annoying. Branches all over the city are broken off and laying everywhere. It was quite the wind!
So I'm pretty sure that they're taking our car away by April.......and I will either be riding the bus or biking! I kind of hope to bike, not gonna lie! We'll see what happens. But it should be nicer outside by then. I can't wait for spring. I really am sick of layering so much with clothes! My greenie has been freezing trying to adjust. But I think it's getting warmer. She's just not climatized yet. :)
So I heard that Canada won the hockey game Sunday night. Literally heard. There was honking and yelling like crazy for like an hour or so straight that night. We were out and about and people were sticking their head out of their car windows yelling and honking and trying to get us to yell. Luckily the person we were having a gospel conversation with took care of that part for us. haha If Canada lost, I'd almost be afriad to tell them I was American. It was fun.
So Terry is doing amazing. He said that he will be baptized when he finds out for sure that the church is true. He doesn't want to do it for anyone else or anything. So that's good. He says he has felt the Spirit. He came to the temple Thursday night and met with the temple president and afterwards was really excited and relieved he said to know that there was a sure way that he could get his answer, and he was referring to himself reading the BOM. So he has delved in it! He came out to institute Friday, church Sunday, and called us Sunday night because he wanted to know what he should do to not watch the hockey game, but still keep the sabbath day holy.....! This guy is amazing! We gave him some ideas....and anyway, he's doing amazing. Unfortunately we can't see him again until this friday or saturday, so we keep in touch with him throughout the week by phone. He's doing so great, there's no way we can let him slip through our grasp!
So......Sister Crofts is my new companion! I don't remember telling you much about her. In fact, I think I've told you nothing. haha. She is from Oderville Utah, near St. George. She even went to Dixie College for two years. She is a beautiful red head.....comes from a small family. Has a missionary that she's writing in Germany right now. She's doing really great! She really doesn't need much help or encouragement from me. She is willing to try new things and she's not afraid to stop people and talk to them! But then she says she doesn't know what to say when it gets past the introducing part. But she is doing amazing for only being a week out. She is going to be a GREAT missionary. I'm very lucky to have her here. She's into sports and all that good stuff. She's going to whip me into shape I decided haha. But yeah. It's been a good first week with her!
Well I love you all and hope that all is weel!
Sheynah, I just got your letter today...I wrote you the other week, so it might still be getting to you. I think I sent it to your home address. But anyway, can't WAIT for the package! I'll try to send you some pictures with my next letters. I love you!!
Love to you all,
Sister Jen Olsen
