I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!!!!
I just love the crap out of all you people! but really I opened my email this morning with all sorts of emails and pictures from my family it was the best thing I could ever ask for. I have no idea how I got blessed to have such a beautiful family who is AMAZING! I LOVE ALL OF YOU!
So in case y'all didn't all ready know MY VISA CAME!!! WHOOO! all of the visa waiting missionaries in the WKM will be leaving on Monday, SO EXCITING! Thank you for all the prayers and support and advice about waiting for a visa, I have loved all of it!
This week has been full of miracles! One of which has been me learning to listen to the spirit's promptings. The ward has asked us to go and visit this part member couple that own a local nursery, the nurs's hahahha it's funny right? any way they live pretty far out of the area that we are usually tracting. On Tuesday we had done everything we had planned and were trying to figure out what to do with the last 30 minutes we had before our dinner appointment. I had the impression that we should drive over and visit the nurs's {nurss'?} {nurss's?} we got there and no one was there, I was like what the heck?! So then we decided to tract all around the area and we didn't find anybody who would even stop a few minutes to talk with us. I felt really stupid and like I had wasted our time. :( The next day one of our appointments fell through and so we tracted all around that area and we still had like 20 minutes before our 3:30 appointment. I again got the prompting to go to the nurss's and it was on our way so off we went. We pulled up and they were just getting ready to head out so we were able to introduce ourselves and talk to them! It was awesome! but then get this... when we went to our 3:30 appointment nobody was there and then we realized it was supposed to be at 4:00. It was so cool that heavenly father put us in the right place at the right time. I LOVE THIS WORK!
so here is the big story of the week. We have been teaching a 17 year old girl named Ari. She is awesome! And on Friday we were able to meet with her, give her a church tour, and put her on date for baptism on the 25th of May!!!!! We were SOOOOOOO excited, and I think we are going to get her out to seminary and mutual before then. ARI IS AWESOME! After Ari we had an appointment with a lady we were referred to by Larry and Lynnette (peyote guy) named Terry Lemon who actually is just really really really inactive. We brought the relief society president with us in hopes that we could maybe get her visiting teachers. When we got to her house and sat down on the couch she mentioned that she was dealing with a bed bug problem. EWWWWWW! but it was too late we couldn't get out. This is especially hilarious because Sister Farnes biggest fear is bed bugs... i kid you not... like she talked about it all the time before this appointment. So we just had to sit there for an hour while terry talked about why she didn't come to church any more was because someone told her she couldn't talk in tongues at church... ya weird i know... so we leave the lesson a little baffled on how to proceed with Terry. And Sister Farnes is FREAKING out. Then we found a bed bug in our car... and she was freaking out even more. We called the zone leaders to get permission to go to walmart and then we bought spray and bug bombs and sister farnes was crying by this point... me and sister brand were laughing. we had to come home and have sister black (the lady we live with) bring out our robes and we cleaned everything out of our car and sprayed the whole can of raid in our car and then we went in the garage and took off all our clothes and put them in plastic bags and put them in the freezer and then we went down and we all had to just sit in the bathroom while the other one showered to make sure all the bed bugs were gone. mid doing all of this we got a call from president greer..ahhhh now we have 2 things to stress about! so we answered the phone and told him about putting ari on date (WOOOO) and then we were like well we have bed bugs so we have to go! President and Sister Greer were like WHAT?! and then they were like ok well Sister Wyatt can we talk to you for just a minute more and they told me my visa had come and I will be leaving a week from today! May 6th. Then I started crying and Sister Farnes started crying harder, and Sister Brand started crying and Sister Black was crying and I was happy and sad and scared and stressed out and excited and thrilled all at the same time.
It's been a great week!
we've had heaps of other miracles this week but i'm running out of time.
i love all of you!

ps where does the term tracting come from?
pps i'm sending you guys letters... dad that means you :)
So your visit has served more purpose than planned. It can be really tough to get rid of bed bugs, as they can be transferred from furniture to furniture through human activity. The best thing to do is to have a pest control agent that will completely exterminate the bugs. Bridgette@
