What up fam?! The OCM is good! Everyday is a good day! There isn't much giong on in the area at all... literally at all yet BUT we're trying!  You pronounce Sister Grimnes's name Grim-ness like the Grim Brothers and "blow Nessy out of the water".. I can't remember all of that quote from Napoleon Dynamite...  We're doing good! She's so fun! I LOVE HER SO MUCH!  Thank you for the phone! I'm excited to see what changes it will bring! This week has been full of changes.. well the past two weeks really! I think I already talked about some of them in previous emails, but I can't completely remember so you'll be getting some info again.  We had an area boundary change and so we took in a lot more active members in the ward! It's been so great!  We also changed apartments a couple of weeks ago. We swapped apartments with the Elders so we have made the apartment really cute now!

Sister Grant and another missionary in the OCM Hey pals! This week has been so great! I got my baby. Her name is Sister Grimnes and she's from Santa Maria, CA. It's so cute to see her in the snow.

I'M GOING TO HAVE A BABY!  On Thursday night President Brown called told me I would be training one of the new missionaries! I'm so excited to have a baby!  The week has been good but weird. Sister Bywater decided to go home on Thursday to get help with her anxiety so we've been getting everything ready for her to send home/ pack home and that took a lot of work, but it was good! After district meeting we traveled to Cleveland and that's where I've been since! We had to come for the trainer meeting and then Sister Bywater flew out this morning, so we just stayed here.

Sister Garvin was my STL when I was in Youngstown. It's been the best to hang out with her! I'll be here until transfers tomorrow when I get my new companion. I'm so glad to be here!  Tons of big
