As I creep closer to the end, I reflect on times past, and I find myself contemplating the future in hyper drive!

Good Afternoon Fam and Friends, 
Happy P-day! 
What great news's do I have to share with you this week? 
Well, I survived another week.... so that's good! Woohoo! Yay for surviving! Haha, survived sounds so negative. I promise nothing bad happened. I've just been working through a bunch of personal stuff and trying to figure out life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. (Being an adult can be really hard sometimes! - PS. If anyone can find a way to Neverland and wants to take me with them....)
This week has been great! 
Monday and Tuesday, we had two really delicious dinners with Sister Peters. I LOVE HER SO MUCH! She is just so confident and at peace with Father in Heaven and understanding his will for her in this life. She is also just super intuitive and knowledgeable. Follow Your Dreams; Go With The Flow, and Experience Life To Its Fullest! She's just great! I want to be like her someday. 
Wednesday we had some really good lessons with a couple families in the ward. It's always so cool to see the Spirit working within others. I just love it! 
Thursday was special. We had Zone Meeting that day. I learned a lot. We talked about and role played talking to everyone, inviting to be baptized, and we watched #BecauseHeLives <--- BEST VIDEO EVER! Please watch it again. Thank you. But I'm pretty sure that as I introduced Zone Meeting a couple of sentences ago, I said that it was interesting. *sigh* Sometimes I just need to learn to keep my mouth shut. STORY TIME! So bless the poor Zone Leaders, they were trying to demonstrate a role play of inviting someone to be baptized, and out of nowhere, I opened my big mouth and said, "Weak!" Because the invitation was very wishy washy. I about died. I grabbed my mouth and was like, "Oh my gosh! that wasn't supposed to come out." while in the background I could hear the Elders, "Oooooh!" And then it happened again but I said something else stupid. I was SOOOOOO embarrassed!!!!!!!!! I'm pretty sure if I could have I would have crawled under the table and died! 
Anyways - the fun part about Zone Conference was getting our car insurance cards because the Estes Park jeep had been pranked and so everyone was flocking around it to see what was up. Someone put a bunch of sticky notes on the door windows. ;) 
Friday we had two service projects which were fun. We did some service out at Mead High School by helping them set up for a Health Fair. That was a special experience because I got yelled at by one of the Ladies. Oooops! (My Oxborrow side might have come out a little bit.) I try really, really hard to be good and it always tends to backfire! :P *sigh* I can never win. Oh well, we made right and worked until lunch and then left to go eat. Then we did more service at the Inn Between. 
Saturday we had the best ever dinner and visit with Ron. I just LOVE HIM SO MUCH! He is a single guy that is recently returning to activity, and he is a SPIRITUAL GIANT! He was telling us all about his trip to Salt Lake City for General Conference. (I'm pretty sure he takes as many temple pictures as you do Emily M.) Anyways - he's just so cool! We're going to start having regular FHE's with him on Mondays. SUPER EXCITED! 
We also were able to go to the baptism for our Ward Mission Leaders daughter. That was really fun, and it reminded me of my own baptism so many years ago.
And yesterday was SUPER great! We had dinner with the Merrill's and Jones's and it was delicious and we might have spent an eternity and their house and asked ridiculous ice breaker type questions. :D it was so much fun! I have never been so slammed with California vibes in my entire life! CRAZY! But it was SOOOOOO much fun. 
Yeah I think that's all. I hope y'all are doing really well. I hope you know how much I love you. I know that Jesus Christ Lives. I know that Heavenly Father loves each one of us and knows exactly what needs to happen in our lives. I know that the Gospel is True and can bring us the Most Happiness in this life. I know that Heavenly Father's Will is My Will even when it scares me. 
Love,

Sister Bryans
