Monday Night: had a soirée familiale (fhe) with the Regniers!!!!! they're a cool family.
Tuesday: District meeting, and then a lot of contacting (because we have no amis)... And we found a new ami!!!! her name is stefanie, she's from austria! she speaks german french and english fluently and also knows italien pretty well. yeah, you could say she's cool. we talked with her for and hour! we found her in our favorite park walking her dog. She was so sweet afterwards we were heading home for dinner and she offered to give us a ride! obviously we took it cause it was freezing cold!
Wednesday: had a doctors appointment for soeur r. she's been having back problems lately. then we went to the church after having lunch because we had to send some of the stuff the doctor gave us to the mission office. so we show up and some of the young adults are setting up the church for the new years dance... So I helped them. so for a solid hour i blew up balloons while i waited for soeur r to get everything done... So then we went and did some pass by's. had a lesson with a convert of 3 years, we're helping her prepare for the temple! and then we got the night off!!! We went to the Chevés another really cool family. we had dinner and then watched La Rein de Neige (aka FROZEN!) so good! i missed it so much. (won't get to watch another movie for a year-that's weird!) then we got home and crashed at 11:30- i know so lame, didnt even stay up for the new year.

Thursday: we had the whole day off! so what did we do? first of all, slept in! borrow the RM, the best two years, and saints and soldiers from our DMP. went to the church and chilled and watched movies and ate food. also there was left over food from the young adults dance, so we also ate that... it was a really, good, chill day! also in saints and soldiers there's a french lady and i understood everything she was saying! haha that was super cool!
this week our zone had a goal to invite ALL of our amis to be baptized... problem all the amis we do have were not available for the holidays... but we got to see One ami this week, so we invited her to be baptized... she pulled out the "i've already been baptized" so we explained the restoration again... but she doesn't even believe that God is our Heavenly Father.... so we didnt push it. But at least we tried... we were supposed to see another ami this week too and invite her, but she forgot so when she showed up she had family over and so all we could do was pray with her. BUT next week we're supposed to see a lot of our amis, so we'll be inviting them all to be baptized then.
Also i think i wrote last week that juliette Chevé got her call finally after 6 months of waiting and that she was going to the scottland/ireland mission (so cool)! but two other people got their calls this week too! emmanuel raveneau going somewhere in Africa (i didnt catch where exactly) and sarah who is going to the Lyon France mission. which I think her parents live in that mission, so that's a little awkward haha. but yeah! super exciting seeing so many people going on missions!
Well I hope you all have a wonderful week! and good luck on all your new years resolutions! growing up i never really made goals for the new year, but boy did i make a whole lot for this year. which by the way, this WHOLE next year i'll be a missionary. so weird to think about! this is the one FULL year that i'll spend as a missionary serving the people of france. very weird to think about and a little daunting. Also i come home in one year from tomorrow!!!!!! but who's counting haha :)
Love you all! gros bisous!
