the one where they put Bill on date

 "Boom, you looking for this?"

Starting with Monday, we met up with some other missionaries and went to this fire spot for lunch, but it was closed, so instead, we hit up a classic Chinese food chain, and it was super good! After that, we played some card games and just hung out at the church together! 😁😁 And of course, at the end of the day, we played basketball with our boys and it was a sick night! We had 4 friends pull up, and Hide brought his super cute family, and it was fun to talk with everyone and just have a good time together πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜†

Tuesday, we did exchanges with the ZLs, and it was a really good time! 😁😁 I went with Elder Lighthall, and we had a really productive day! We did lots of streeting and visited some inactive members, and it was just a really good day!πŸ˜†
At the end of the day, we had English class and we had a lot of friends come! It was one of the most fun eikaiwa classes we have had in a while! πŸ˜πŸ˜†

Wednesday, we met up with some members and some old ladies and we talked, ate some food, and sang hymns together 😁😁 The old ladies were so so cute and it was so much funπŸ˜πŸ˜†
The rest of the day was a pretty normal day, but it was hard to street because it was rainingπŸ˜…πŸ˜­

Thursday was such a fun day! πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†
It was our friend shoki's birthday and we went to the world expo that is going on in Osaka because he wanted to go! πŸ˜†πŸ˜† We had such a good time!!! And it was so much fun to spend the day and hang out with him!πŸ˜†πŸ˜πŸ˜ I got lots of flicks on the album, so go check it out! πŸ˜πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Friday, we did some weekly planning and then had game night as usual 😁😁 We had lots of people come and it's just so much fun to hang out all together and spend time with all of our friends! 😁😁

Saturday was one of the top 3 best days of my entire mission.... It starts with meeting up with Kai and Takafumi from Osaka and we all went bowling together πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜† After a good couple games, we went to a sushi place for lunch and ate so so so much food πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜πŸ˜ After that, we headed toward home but went straight to Bill's house to spend the night with him and his family πŸ˜πŸ˜† We started by having a little campfire with him which is always my favoriteπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜† Then, His wife made some amazing dumplings for us and we ate even more food (we were already so full but we pounded a good amount of dumplings) which was so delicious πŸ˜†πŸ˜πŸ˜‹ Then we went to the forest back behind his house and literally just explored it for like an hour and a halfπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ€£πŸ€£
When we got back to his home, we sat down and just started talking about the church and stuff, and then we PUT HIM ON DATE FOR MAY 18THπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†
LET'S GOOOOOO!!! BILL IS GONNA GET BAPTIZED πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜† We had such a great conversation and a little lesson, and everything is finally good, and he can get baptized! πŸ˜πŸ˜†

Sunday was another phenomenal dayπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜πŸ˜
To start, at church I got to see brother and sister Aoki who was an amazing couple from when I lived in HigashiosakaπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜ Sister Aoki's parents live in Kawachinagano and so they came to visit😊😁Bill also came to church and we had a really good lesson and Brother Aoki participated in the lesson because he is fluent in English and it was so fun and nostalgic to teach a lesson together because we used to teach Mima together πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜† After that amazing day at church, we went over the the Shino's and we had a great dinner with them all together πŸ˜πŸ˜†πŸ˜† They have three super fun and cute kids and it was a great night! πŸ˜πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Well, I went on pretty long, so I'll end it there this week! Feel free to email me ! 

That's all, Folks.
