The week in pictures

Last P-Day I got to go to a WAL-MART for the first time in a year!! So that was exciting! We also enjoyed Petco! Real stores! And their big! But, we did have to drive 40 minutes to get there... so New Paltz is small.  But yay for upstate;)



We had a fun split this week and Sister Kelly came to New Paltz with me! We taught an amazing less active family, the Salinas family, the Restoration in a simple and relatable way reminding them of their spiritual experiences. We used "I Am A Child of God" to teach about how God gave us families kind and dear and he gave us prophets and Jesus Christ to lead, guide, and walk beside us. They remembered and talked about experiences going to the temple, reading scriptures together and individually, and one of the sons remembered his experience getting the priesthood. It was a great lesson and a great day, but it ended up crazy! When we went to meet up we were way behind schedule, it was pitch black, and raining. So we ended up just having a sleep over in Yorktown (approved by President don't worry) and drove back the next morning haha! 


Half of our cute branch is all one family! This picture is Grandma Weed's house and yard, 
and we're sitting on the porch of the Hekkings (her daughter and her family's house). Right down the road are 
The Weeds which is her son and his family. So fun and we love them!




Today for our P-day Adventures here in New Paltz we went on a beautiful hike! It was at a super fancy hotel preserve place in the mountain. (Mohonk Mountain Preserve). It's basically its own little town with all sort of fun activities and things to do. Our neighbor works there and was able to let us enjoy a day there. It's so fun being surrounded by mountains and trees again. It reminds me of Utah:)
