12/16/13: GB for Another Round!!!!

Guess whose NOT getting transferred. Didn't see that one coming!!! But I'm PUMPED!!! There's so much going on here that I can't wait to be a part of!!! I love it! And Sister Newton is the best companion ever (no joke) so the fact that we get 3 transfers together makes me just as happy as a clam :)
But that also means I am an STL for another transfer which I so did not see happening! I was totally ready to stop planning exchanges, going to leadership, buying food, giving trainings. Now it is weird cause we're sitting here and I'm realizing all the things that I have to do one more time and woah there's a lot!!! *body not falling apart or anything*
But I get to see Quentin get baptized, which is like the greatest tender mercy of all time :):)
This week was also ZTM week, which is the most draining week of a transfer for us and the GB zone leaders. Because the zone is so big, we do 2 ZTMs instead of the 1 everyone else does. It also means getting up at 4AM. Which just makes us zombies for the rest of the week.

But we survived it and it was fun!! I wish we could have done everything that was done in Leadership as awesomely as Bro Glazier and Bro Mills did, but we just aren't that talented :( I hope the missionaries got something out of it though :)
We had two days this week while our car was in the shop so we didn't have one, but I was only around for one because the other I was on an exchange :) But I realized that not having a car isn't as bad (right now) as I made out my memories in West Allis to be. It was actually kinda refreshing :)
There are some sweetly decorated houses here in GB for Christmas. SO COOL!!!
We saw some incredible miracles on the exchange. And met some really nice people :) I love nice people!!! It's also comforting to know that the gospel is true, because when we share it if the person we are talking to is honestly listening, I don't have to worry about making things up to make it seem true or worth it or grand! Because it already is all by itself!!!! Best job ever:):)
Bluemoon ice cream. Its a big deal in Wisconsin. I think it's weird. tastes super funky.
DANNY, ROCK EUROPE OKAY???? Inspiration is a pretty amazing thing as a missionary :) This definitely feels right to us. You are gonna love it. No marrying Paris boys while I'm still on my mission though.
We're going to have to start doing some finding again now that our most awesome investigator is getting baptized!! But Kim still has a lot of potential. We found out that Chad is on parole until 2017. I almost started crying when they told me. But we're gonna make him so solid in this church before he ever gets baptized anyway!!! Cause he's ready to change his life:)
Wish us luck in finding new people to teach! We have a pretty good potential pool, but it still takes a lot of the spirit to do it right. Keep us in your prayers :)
Love you all! Tyson--chill! :P
