She's A Witch!

 She's a witch... but not really. So, we had a service project where we were packing up this old lady's hoarder house! Let me tell you... it was rough! We found lots of interesting things! Including witch clothes... hopefully Halloween costumes πŸ€ͺ We also found a random wig and a drawer full of drugs and needles. While we were cleaning out her closet there were spiders ALL over!!! You all know how I feel about spiders... ahhhhhhh!!! They were crawling on my companion, so I screamed and she said, "Sister Peterson! You can't do that! Breathe!" Later in the same closet the lady came up to tell us what to pack and apparently there were spiders on me. My companion didn't say anything, but she had us leave the closet for a second and then said, "you're welcome." Thank goodness for great companions that make you not freak out in front of people πŸ˜‚ We decided to make a game out of it after that, so we started naming all of the spiders and cockroaches that we found. We killed Timmy... oops. I hope you're proud, dad... I kept it together germophobia and all, and I killed the spiders! Kind of. πŸ™„

After that we got a call from this man that we are teaching. He is friends with a homeless man named Alex. When he called he said, "I think Alex is possessed and passed it to me..." we were like, uhhhhhh. We have no idea how to help! We told him we could see what we could do and sent him to the Elders! πŸ˜‚ Sorry Elders. We think he might be schizophrenic... guess we'll figure that out later!

I also had Jamaican food for the first time this week!! Jerk pork is now my favorite thing ever! 20/10 recommend πŸ‘Œ

We went to teach a lesson and I heard a gunshot and the ice cream truck at the same time! 2 scary things! πŸ˜‚ We got the heck out of there!

We went to dinner with a guy named DJerry who thought he was the funniest person ever. He had so many dad jokes. He looked at us and said, "which one is from Utah?" (Joking of course) until I slowly raised my hand and he almost fell out of the chair laughing. Then he made fun of me for getting a kids meal. I will never live this down... I got made fun of all night πŸ˜‚

I got to do service at the bishops storehouse! It was so fun! You meet a lot of interesting people there... one of them told us how bikinis were invented? It was so funny. Email me if you want to know πŸ€—

Lastly, we called this lady yesterday and asked if she wanted to hear a message. She said she was good like 10 times and the phone cut out. We called her back and said we were sorry that the phone cut out and then she said, "the phone didn't cut out? I hung up on you!" It was sooooo funny! I DIED laughing and she hung up again. 

Spiritual thought: there was a car crash, so we had to take a random road and as we were driving I heard someone yell, "MORMONS" so we turned around and met this guy. He was obviously very high and was smoking and he said that he was sorry that we saw him like that and that he was a recent convert from Reno Nevada and wanted to come to church. It was crazy! I told him my brother was a missionary there! The connections we make are crazy, and Heavenly Father will always put us in the right place at the right time. He loves us and wants us to be happy! ❤ I hope you all have an amazing fourth of July and I would love to hear from you if I don't die tonight in crazy Florida celebrations! 😜 πŸ˜‚ Love you all!!
