Weeding the Garden

This week has been crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

We went to a less active family to visit and see what their dealio was this week. Grandpa was chillin' on the porch so we talked to him and shared a message with him. When we were talking to him we noticed that he had a bowl of weeds next to him and a shovel was right there in the garden so we told him we would come back the next day and help him in his garden.

 

HAHA.

 

So we came back the next day and Grandma was just pulling up right when we got there. Perfect. So we taught her and they both committed to come to church... which they didn't, by the way. Anyway, after our super spirit lead lesson, we went to the garden to do some weeding. OK. SO. I have never really liked weeding. Actually, I kind of hate it. I don't do it very often. BUT. I know what weeds are. We start pulling up the weeds and Grandpa comes out and just to be safe we ask him if we are pulling out plants or weeds. WE DON'T SPEAK SPANISH. So it took us a while to figure out he was telling us that he eats this stuff. Awkward. I had a handful of weeds. OK. I know they are weeds. He is just from Mexico and eats the roots of some things. But anyway. That explains why he had a BOWL of weeds instead of a BAG of weeds next to him.

 

So we are teaching this other lady. O my word. She talks SO MUCH. Usually, you are supposed to asked inspired questions and all that but we were scared to ask any questions because LITERALLY after every question, or even a comment, she would go off for twenty minutes. K, lessons are only supposed to be like 40 minutes. HaHa. Our lesson lasted FOR EVER, but we didn't even finish or get through the whole thing. We had a member with us, who is pretty assertive too and she only got a couple of words in. I felt so bad for this investigators kids because she woke them up to come in and listen. And she just talked the ENTIRE time. We had been trying to figure out why her kids were so quiet the last time we taught them...

 

Anyway. We are coming up with a game plan for next time.

 

K, I love you guys so much!!!!!!!!!!! Have an awesome week!
