Hey everyone! Today I will write a little bit about my week. I took a ton of pictures of my adventures! First off, it was Sister Aleman’s
birthday this week and because it was her birthday we were able to go to the LA
Temple and do a session! It was so great to just sit peacefully in the temple and feel the Spirit for a change and clear my brain because as missionaries we are always running and running. We went with a
member from our ward who had the day off of work, she was so sweet to take
us.
Thursday was Sister Aleman’s birthday so I made pancakes and
we had a Zone lunch where everyone surprised her. Elder Zazueta even had a
confetti gun... I don't know how the heck he got one of those but he did! After
that we had an awesome training in District Meeting where we talked about
"The Force" where Elder Zazueta brought light sabers and
everything... that guy hahaha! We talked about how important the Spirit is and
how we need to teach and find by the Spirit aka the force.
Saturday, we had our ward trunk or treat! It is so weird
being in an English ward where they do things like Super Saturday and Trunk or
Treat, but it was a ton of fun! We even did a trunk!!! I went to the 99-cent
store and the ward members were so impressed that we participated! We handed
out candy and pass along cards with pictures of Jesus, the kids thought it was
really funny! We did the activity combined with another ward so a lot of people
came up to us and asked us if we dressed up as missionaries or if we were the
real deal;). I told them yes... it is us in the flesh! We were a hit!
Well, I have a ton of pictures for this week so I will let
them tell the rest of the stories of the week! Hope you guys all have a
wonderful Halloween!!! Until Next time,

The birthday trip to the LA Temple, Happy Birthday Sister Aleman!!!
I Spy with my Little Eye...the Hollywood Sign!!! We could see it from the temple haha! Just look really hard and turn your head to a 60 degree angle and close one eye and you can see it ;)
"The Force"
Elder Zazueta and Elder Losse had way too much fun!!!
I told a member that it was Sister Aleman's Birthday, they got her a cake and then...
...I shoved her face in it!
It is a Latino Tradition to shove the face of the Birthday person in their cake. The family that got us the cake are Latino so I knew they would not be offended. Sister Aleman was very suprised haha!
This is our Trunk at the "Trunk or Treat"
Our bowl, which happened to be the spare tire, filled with treats and Pass Along Cards :)
There are only so many resources that are available to missionaries to dress up for Halloween! I was dressed up to be a Cow Girl and Sister Aleman was going on a Safari! People just thought we dressed up like missionaries haha!
