05/07/22 Week Two MTC Highlights

Katie didn't write about week two but she took some fun pictures. I'll explain the pictures the best I can.

Katie sneaked a ride on the twin's wiggle car. 






We got Ellie and DJ wiggle cars for their 2nd birthday. The cars were left unattended in the living room while Katie had home MTC. During one of her breaks, she decided to give it a spin! (shhh...don't tell!!!! She is WAY too big for those cars!!!!)











Katie has a special relationship with her Grandpa Griffin (86 years old this month!!). They went to Bear Paw Cafe for breakfast and then to Buena Vista Park and spent some quality time together eating stuffed french toast and walking around. 





Katie's nickname is Katie Quacker's Griffin. Her ring tone on my phone is a duck quacking.  Her grandpa is Grandpa Quack Quack, because he always makes a quacking sound to the great grand kids. Katie wanted to do something fun for her district so she made elder and sister ducks to give to her MTC friends when she arrived in Mexico. As you can see she had some fun with her duck choir, duck scripture study and her district of ducks. I'm sure the Elders and Sisters will be excited to get their ducks!!!

Holaaaa!  I'm gonna do this a little differently... here's this week's highlights!  -Tuesday we went to Antofa for a conference and to say  goodbye  to  presidente   y   hermana   Larsen !! I got to see the Hermanas who picked me up at the airports and met a bunch of people who maybe I'll talk to again later and maybe not!! We had pizza which is a super important detail, and on the bus we watched Cars and another movie I can't remember what it's called. Overall a good time.  -Wednesday we got completos :)  -Thursday we had a zone FHE and we were in charge! We also had a super long phone call with our friend Billy and got him set up to be baptized on the 16th... and we think this time is different and is not gonna fall through    -Friday we had a gospel principles class... but no one showed up, including the teacher... so then when one person did show up, us and the Elders taught her the 4th lesson in preparation for her baptism...

Katelyn Griffin Sat, Apr 30, 11:03 PM (6 days ago) Hola a todos!!!  It has been a crazy week! I've met a ton of new people, felt the spirit a TON, and I now know, like, twice as much Spanish as I did a week ago (so still not that much ;) Here are some of the highlights:  Monday I got to meet my compañera, and she is  amazing!  She's from Manti, Utah, and I don't know how else to explain this, but I feel like I vibe with her. She's bubbly and sweet, and she seems to really love the gospel and wants to work hard. I can't wait to get to know her more!!  A couple days in, I got to know my district a bit more, and I am so impressed by these people! I was anxious about going "late," since most missionaries, it seems like, go out as soon as they turn 18 or 19, but most of my group is older than the minimum age, which is a comfort to me :)  One of the days, I wrote this in my journal: "One thing I've noticed about being a missionary so far is how much mor...

  Hello hi how's it goin its so laaaaate, so imma make this maybe a little more short and sweet!!  We had zone conference early in the weekend which was pretty good... except that it went long so we didn't get to do interviews and we had to RUN to the bus... good times   (side note I'm currently writing this from a bus on the way to copiapo AGAIN because we have exchanges tomorrow with the hermanas here.) Also, got told to do a musical number again... on the bus ride on the way to copiapo... so had to figure that one out in like less than 12 hours haheha. A little organization would be cool but like it's fine. We sang I need thee every hour (me and my compi) and it turned out pretty good (there was a weird thing with the piano but no importa!!)  A little later in the week we had our ups and downs, like one day we found this little family who are so golden!! (And apparently they had someone over visiting until 4am, but the husband couldn't sleep because he was so...
