St. Patty's Day!

ahhhhh!

I can't believe I have another nephew!!!!!! Kaden is a STUD!!!!!! i can't wait to meet him!

another week has come and gone- Things around here have slowed down quite a bit, but the work is still great!
There is this family that we met, oh goodness I love them so much, They live in a small little house with 4 dogs- 1 cat- 2 birds- 2 moms(rose and shannon)- 1 dad(michael)- 1 son(daniel)- 2 daughters(jenna and ashlee)- and 1 old man (tommy).
Their name is the Parret/green/ayho/tommy family.
The mum is Shannon
shannon has 2 daughters (ashlee and jenna) and she is married to Michael (the dad)
Rose is Michaels ex-wife.
 Daniel is Roses son.
Tommy is Roses ex husbands (not michael) dad.
did ya catch that?
no worries- it took me a whole week to remember.
THey are so funny! Shannon, Jenna, and Ashlee are all members- but they have not gone to church in a long time.
we began going over there last week and they constantly want us to keep coming over, they feed us dessert or dinner every time we go over. They have such big hearts! They take in so many people-and animals (as you can tell)
anywho- we went over to their house on Saturday and Jenna (age 17) was all dressed up, we asked her why and she said "oh I'm going to a mormon dance!' we were shocked haha but she decided to go to a singles ward dance! this is a girl who hadn't wanted anything to do with the church, and here she was deciding to go to a church dance- it's amazing to see what difference sister banks and I have made, it's so worth it! Then we started talking to Mike and Shannon and we said "so you're coming to church tomorrow, right?" they laughed and said "ya ok" ... banks and I sat there and we were like "wait, what??! serious?!"
sure enough.. Shannon and michael came to church on Sunday- it was awesome! Shannon hadn't been to church in Years and michael had only been once or twice before that.
It was amazing to see them back at church!

Anywho- here are a lot of pics

Some are of when our car got broken into- the one with the lady and her cigarettes, that's shannon! she makes her own cigarettes cuz it's cheaper... hahahaha.
Then there are some of Banks and I tracting, at the temple
The group one of us at the temple (with elders) that is our district! We just had transfers today, and so I will get a new district tomorrow (same companion and area though, i didn't get transferred! yay!!!)
and the others... I kinda forgot.. but ya!

I love you all!!!
