Pass-Along Cards

This week was NUTS!!!

I had blood taken and I didn't cry for the first time in my life, and I turned 20!!! .............Those two things do not go together.....

I turned 20 on Saturday! I was expecting to wake up and know everything and exactly what I wanted to do with my life since I'm not a teenager anymore, BUT it didn't happen so that was a let down.

Sister Ahlm made me birthday pancakes and President and Sister Kohler called and wished me happy birthday! Then we had a street display for 5 hours... happy birthday! HA. HA. HA. Just kidding it was fun! Afterwards our ward mission leader took us and the Elders to his house with the people who were helping at the display and he cooked a birthday dinner for me. He's so nice and it was so delicious! It was probably the strangest birthday party I've ever had but it was also one of the best!

Sister Ahlm and the Elders had the senior missionaries smuggle a case of Dr. Pepper from the military base and gave it to me as a birthday present hahaha *tear* they know me so well.

It was a good birthday and I can't believe I'm 20. It's so weird. Germans are so funny because the second you tell them it's your birthday they just melt and treat you like a king.

I also recieved my visa this week so I am now officially legal in Germany.

Transfer calls were on Saturday. President Kohler called us and said that I am staying in Tübingen and Sister Wilkes will be my new companion, and we will be sister training leaders for the Stuttgart Zone. I'm so excited!! She trained my MTC companion and she's so cute! Sister Ahlm is going to white wash and train a golden in Vienna. She's super hardcore and I'll miss her.

R was baptized yesterday! I'm so happy for him and I feel so blessed to have taught him. It was cool teaching someone from beginning to end and see how they were blessed as the time went on. He is a testimony builder to me that NO EFFORT IS WASTED! He started meeting with us because a missionary that was here before me gave him a pass a long card on the bus and then had to quickly run off before she got to tell him anything about our church. She probably thought that nothing would ever happen and that he would lose the card or something, but he went on the website and decided that he wanted to learn more. Simply handing out a single pass along card led to him choosing to be baptized. Im so happy for him!

Well.. i love you guys!

I have loads of pictures to send today

prepare yo selves!
