Soeur Isaacson's Mission

Bonjour mes amis !!!!!  What an amazing week, last week of learning French!!!!!!!!! 3 weeks left, 3 more emails from the MTC then I'm out and in the real world! I love being a missionary!!! We've taught lessons to our teachers almost everyday this week and I love it! Love being in a trio, love the fake suspicious food, love Fall, just ALL THE FREAKING LOVE. Random thoughts: I've been trying to roll my Rs since I got my call in May and the other day I FINALLY DID IT!!!!!! Might have freaked out a wee bit... We labeled everything in our classroom in french on sticky notes, including soeur Winder. français toujours ! Found a girl that was totally twinning me! Same skirt, same colored shirt, white socks, brown boots, don't know who she is but it's good. We learned a handshake that apparently all the Tahitian kids do, see video #basicallyultimategoals I never know how to end lessons and I ALWAYS wanna say 'That...

First off, I got another companion this week!!!!! She came in 6 weeks before me but had to leave for medical reasons and just got back so now I'm in a trio with Soeur Valle and Lunt! Literally love them to death. We kill the lessons and help each other with French and they help me not forget things and be on time and it's great.     So many missionaries in my zone are ski/boarders so we're always fan-girling about the now in the mountains and crying over how much we miss our mountains. Most of them are elders so it's a fun sight. S/O to dad for living another year without braking a hip or eating milk toast!!!! Hope your 32nd bday was amazing! Cool experience- Sr Lunt and I were planning a lesson for our teacher and trying to plan it on one topic and it was so frustrating and nothing was working. So we left and prayed about it and talked and had a prompting to teach something else. We prayed again and asked God to confirm our decision if it was right and ...

Conference was AMAZING!!!!!!!  Our purpose here on Earth is others. It really is to being others joy and peace and salvation. I loved how much they talked about taking upon us the name of Christ , and serving/acting JUST like him. Deepening our conversion is ONLY possible through Service. Also the missionaries all went CRAZY during all the temple announcements . Before conference we were talking and I said "they're probable gonna change something, but I know it won't be church hours, idk why people keep talking about that" LOW AND BEHOLD 2 hour church haha!! Really love this change and I'm excited to help out the Tahitians in January! THERE IS SNOW IN THE MTNS!!!!!!!!! The fall colors are killing me, but the snow is just   sorry to my comp for freaking out and heel-clicking whenever I see that white fluff straight from heaven.     I saw Emma Watts on her first day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We live down the hall from each other and I LOVE having her h...

I love how in French instead of using formal language (thee, thou, thy) they use the REALLY informal / close form of you that you only use for your family and close friends. I love it cuz we know Him and we're familiar with Him! w/ Cousin Drew, serving in SLC West I saw cousins Drew and Elfie and my friend Caleb Barlow all in the same day!!!!! So good to see their lovely faces.  Story: Tuesday I was sitting next to a gorgeous Puerto Rican sister who was so sad cuz she had her first cinnamon roll at the mtc and wouldn't have one maybe aver again (she's leaving on Monday). Then she said "I'm just gonna pray and ask the Lord for one more cinnamon roll before I leave." She was so sure and I honestly thought it was a little silly to pray for that, so i forgot about it. BUT LOW AND BEHOLD MY PARENTS AND AUNT AND UNCLE SENT ME CINNAMON ROLLS WHICH WERE SOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZINGLY DELECTABLE 3 DAYS BEFORE SHE LEAVES. We saw each other and started freaki...

DAD DISCLAIMER : I put the links in her emails 'cause some people like to click on things.  She's not taking the time to do that--I'm just geeky about enhancing experiences.                                                                                         -Dad/Travis ------------------------------------ HELLLOOOOOOOOO MY PEOPLE!!!!! JE T'AIME BEACOUP !!!!!  First off, yes I did say that en francais to my teacher in a mock lesson. #goals Saveur vs Sauveur . Basically the same thing. Second, I LOVE THE MTC AND MISSIONARY LIFE ! This week was definitely harder than the week before, every class we get more advanced and the more I have to work on learning and understanding... it's been a good lesson on humility haha...  ...
