​Bonjour!!! Zone Conference in Raiatea Flying to Raiatea! So this has been another AWESOME week and I can't wait to tell y'all about it! You know how I said last week we might be going to Raiatea for zone conference? Well dreams do come true! We flew out pretty early  Wednesday  morning and were able to spend the night in Raiatea! It was really weird having a 15 minute plane flight, but what can you expect when you can literally see Raiatea from our little island? ;) It was so cool! It was also very disorienting to be with all three of the companions I've had so far. At one point Soeur Wissocq said "companion" and I responded instead of her current companion. Tears may or may not have been shed once we realized the mistake. Honestly though, I've been so lucky with all of the companions I've had so far! They've all taught me something new and have helped me become a better missionary! Both Soeur Kendall and Soeur Wissocq are doing amazing ri...

Bonjour tout le monde!!! The stones are like a sacred place here. Their ancestors placed them here in that way and now people get married and stuff there. Pretty cool stuff. Packages from America So this week was awesome! For starters both Soeur Miller and I got packages from our families! So blessed! And I got something in said package that will allow me to upload pictures, so life is good again!!! Be prepared for tons of pictures!!!  Bicycles Bad!! So you know how I was so excited we weren't going to be on bikes? I spoke too soon. Our new elder has knee problems and can't bike everyday so we're sharing with the elders now. They have it every  Friday -M onday  and we have it the rest of the week. And surprise surprise: Riding a bike in a skirt is not easy. I am really impressed with all of those sister missionaries who have come before us because it is actually the worst. I think I've managed to flash everyone on this island.    oh well, what ...

Iorana Everyone! The LAX Airport - Luggage Craziness I made it to Tahiti without dying thanks to all your prayers I'm sure. :) So... Where do I even start??? We made it to the LAX airport even though we only had 6 week visas, so they pretty much said that the plane to Tahiti wouldn't take us but to go to LAX anyway and trust that the church would figure it out. Good thing Soeur Kendall had a phone and was able to talk to the church and remind them that we needed to get to Tahiti. So that was a party. Also, about an hour before we were supposed to board we realized that my luggage had only made it to the LAX airport when it was supposed to go all the way to Tahiti, so I ran back through security to figure it out and barely made it back in time to board! Talk about luck! Little did I know then that I would not get my luggage until  Thursday  and I had not brought a carry on because I could fit it all in those two suitcases. Good thing So...
