Happy 4th of July!!!!!!

Hey so false alarm...
The Ipad's were stolen, but the mission just took the ipads from companionships that already had one each. so now at least every companionship in the mission has an Ipad. which didnt really affect our equipe because soeur hales wouldnt have gotten one anyways and soeur dechesne isnt part of our mission. So originally  it was just going to be me that got the ipad anyway.
Well this week was super fun! So lets talk about the weather... It got up to 110°F. Its also very humid here and there is NO WIND in Paris. So that was fun. We drank lots of water and I stayed hydrated... But soeur hales got dehydrated while on exchanges. Just to let you know if your dehydrated don't drink 3 liters of water in less than 3 hours....  you end up throwing up. So she came back not feeling well.... Also soeur hales gave a formation the day before as an "stl" because one of the stls had heat stroke. She was given like a 10 minute notice to teach 4 zones... so yeah the struggle was real. After fasting I felt super light headed even though i drank water during the fast...
So this week we made as many rdv as we could so we weren't out in the sun.
But lets talk about the 4th of July! First of all we started with breakfast: pancakes with real maple syrup and hash browns. we also sang every american song possible and said the pledge of allegiance. And for that and the star spangled banner everyone looked at my shirt (see photo below). For lunch we had a picnic next to the Statue of Liberty in Paris!!!!! Not as big as the real one, but still super cool and as patriotic as we could get for France. I loved it! And it was my first time going there, so like i chose the right first time to go! Pictures are down below!
Hope you have a great week! And I love you all!!!!!!!
Bisous!
