On my way to Oregon!

Alright so this week has been crazy 


We were able to go to the temple on Friday to do endowments in the timpanogos temple and I had a great experience I love doing endowments every time I go it gets better every time and the sprint is always so strong I love it!

Saturday we had our last class with sister jensen ( thank goodness.....she's the one that made me cut my hair) then we went to the temple again and the bus driver took us to the wrong temple some how so we went to the Payson temple which I've never been too and itwas actually a very pretty temple, the only problem was my favorite food place in the whole world is in Payson and I've been so hungry for real food lately so that was sad, but we did sealings for my first time ever. It was very spiritual but very long at the same time.

Sunday is starting to become my favorite day of the week, or at least at the mtc it was just because it's a change of pace and even though it's our busiest day it still feels like a rest day plus devotionals are low key kinda fun and we have a lot of those on Sundays.

Monday and Tuesday we're just classes and packing so not much fun but I had to say bye to my district which was actually kinda sad, our district has been through a lot and we've grown pretty close because of it. Our branch president said he's never seen a district have a crazier two week in the mtc so I'll give a little run down of what's happened.

Sister Atkinson has mono and was told to go home but she didn't

Elder havenar has dislocated his ankle three times

Elder olamaleva broke his hand and almost had to stay another 6 weeks but didn't

Me and havenar have thrown up a combined 15 times( yes we counted)

And the best for last this one still blows my mind 
Sister hall gained turettes on Friday night
So basically we walked out of the devotional as a district and she just started yelling swear words and just random words and we didn't think much of it that night we just laughed, but then it got worse and worse to where she got sent to the er by our branch president and she got diagnosed with turettes, apparently you can get it temporarily caused by high amounts of stress.

But here's the cool part Sunday night she was told by the mtc president that she had to go home and so she had a panic attack and the turettes started to go away and then she  asked me to give her a blessing so I did and after the blessing the turettes was gone and she was able to get to Canada today so that was a really cool experience. 

Today is a travel day and it is no fun we have had technical difficulties with the front runner and the plane, I don't like traveling.
It's crazy to think I'll be knocking doors tomorrow maybe even in a couple hours, I feel super motivated and I'm so excited but I don't feel ready so I'm just gonna trust the lord and go for it. 1 Nephi 4:6 I read that everyday.

I'm sure I'm missing something but I don't have much time so that's it

Love elder Nelson 
Baaaaaaa 🐐

Not too many pics today
