Some Bucket List Items 6/23/14

Things have been going well. One of our investigators left on a trip to the US a week or two ago, and she comes back tomorrow or the next day, so we're waaaay stoked to see her. She's sooo cute. Things are progressing well the other one. Pray that everything will turn out well. Sister Lehman got a ball in the face at soccer the other day, lol. But she's fine--just a pounding headache for a day or two. She played soccer a lot before the mission too, though, so she knows how to be a trooper about it. Also we got to go back to HANAU on Sunday. That was so crazy and fun. It takes only about an hour or so to drive there, so we got a ride from a member. So weird to see the city again. Also I got to see some people from the other wards I was in. It was really fun. We enjoyed ourselves. ALSO they made another STAKE! That was an amazing miracle. The prophecies about Germany are being fulfilled! They split up the Heidelberg and Frankfurt stakes and created a stake called the Friedrichsdorf Stake, which is waaay cool because Friedrichsdorf is where the temple is. But seriously. Lord is hastening His work or something...

ZOKO on Thursdaaay! Exciting but sad. I'm going to miss President Schwartz. He's so cool. Also ZoKo is in Offenbach this time. Lol I'll have to tell you guys about Offenbach someday. There are a lot of things I'll have to tell you about. But anyway, we're stoked for Thursday. Everything should be awesome this week! Today we're planning on going on a bike ride with a member. Some things on my bucket list...I'll hopefully see another castle, and I want to go pick strawberries. That's a big thing here--you just go to a field and fill a big basket of strawberries. I've always wanted to do that. Plus I want to eat chocolate spaghetti ice cream. It's like a German special. Well, spaghetti ice, I mean. I just want the chocolate kind, haha. But there are plenty of things to do and hopefully enough time to do it all! Also we got permission to watch one World Cup game! That was cool. The soccer World Cup is going on right now in Brazil, and Germans LOVE soccer. I have never seen so much German pride than in the last week. I think it was last Monday...yeah they played Portugal and destroyed them 4-0. You seriously would have thought that Germany had won a war. There were flags EVERYWHERE and people singing in the streets and cars covered in German flags racing around town honking and it was waaay crazy. But we're probably going to watch the Germany vs. USA game this week. Sis. Lehman is way stoked. She loves the world cup. We're probably going to watch it with one of our investigators.
