Week #24- birthdays!

This week was really fun! For p day last week we went to the beach, and there was a lot of tourists, even though it is winter here. Tuesday we had our district meeting and we had a little birthday party because 2 sister missionaries also had their birthdays before mine. They bought 2 cakes and as a tradition we had to take a bite out of the whole cake without using our hands and they shoved my face into the cake! Then for my birthday we had a family night planned with some members and they invited some of our investigators and some of our recent converts. We watched a video of The Testaments and then after we ate sandwiches and cake. I got a few gifts from them and I loved it! It wasn't the same as the last few years but it was really fun. I am pretty sure that I have transfers tomorrow so I will be in a new area next week with a new companion. It will be my first transfer so I am a little nervous, but it shouldn't be to bad. We have one investigator that is going to be baptized soon so she wants me to go to her baptism so I have to ask permission. I hope I will get to go to her baptism because she is one of my favorite investigators that I have had. Other than that this week was pretty normal.

Love Elder Monson
Elder Monson got a customized jersey!

Elder Monson got a few gifts for his b-day!

Nothing says happy birthday, like a cake in your face!
