This week has been a great week to finish off our last transfer though!:)

  we were able to meet with a the lady from Iran and ate with her at here house til we almost exploded! she made us some delicous food from Iran and then some normal noodle food! well the funniest thing about that is that i had eaten a LOT OF FOOD and elder johnson was taking his time so i loaded him up with some more food....HE WAS SO MAD! then she took more food and put it on his plate! i was dying of laughter until she put more on my plate as well and i flat out said ^this is impossible i can not eat this and she just laughed so i did the last thing anyone would have expected and i grabbed the fork and LOADED her plate as well:) well i got to talk to mom and dad and that was such a great add to my week and a boost like never before even though when its durinng mothers day we only have 40 minutes but it was a great boost to my week! all my neices are getting so big!

 we met withthe brazilian family and they even made us tons of food and gave johnson a going away present! they always give us some sweet and useful items since her husband is a vendor for the stores around so like shampoo and deoderant so we told them we would use it more since we might stink a little bit haha:) they are so nice and they even made me a cake for my birthday and even gave me some Useful items as well:) i am so grateful for that family and their generocity:) we love meeting with them:) they said they would be baptized in june to so we are working with them towards this goal!:)

 well we had 15 people in church this past week including two investigators:) its was so great to see every seat filled in the church:) so incredible and i was so happy and we had a great lesson prepared as well:)

 well our trip to oslo was long..but before we left we had dinner with rannveig our angel member and with her friend! we had a little lesson with her and she made us some delicious homemade pizza:) we ate til our bellies were completely filled and then she drove us to the air port! we got in to oslo at 1100 and then took the train and had all of johnsons stuff which was SO HEAVY! plus had to walk to the Zone Leaders apartment on the otherside of town! got there around 1130 and stayed up til 130 getting the updates and what not for what we were doing tomorrow and johnson was filled in on his new call as Zone Leader! we had our meeting the next day or the same day and then i left to trondheim later that day and overnighted in trondheim with my new companion and then woke up the next morning early after staying up late as well that night and had to reach our flight and it left at 900 am! we celebrated and planned for our week and ate birthday cake with the brazilian family:) its been a great week!:)
