Its been a great week down here in little Morgan Hill! I don't even know where to start. First off... the 4th of July down here is UNREAL. They have this massive parade that goes for over a mile long and everyone goes ALL OUT on their floats. The missionaries in my District got to help make some of the floats and clean up after the parade for our service activity, and it was awesome. We made these very festive announcing booths on July 3rd, and did it all on the main road, because they shut the whole parade route down for about 2 and a half days. So that was kind of fun! Then the 4th of July we started bright and early with a ward pancake breakfast, then all the missionaries hopped on the "clean up" float and rode in the parade to all of the announcing booths! it was so fun! we just smiled and waved at people and they actually smiled and waved back!!! hah it was a great time. Also an honor to be apart of one of the biggest parades in California. But everyone and their dog was outside barbequing and socializing it was awesome to talk with everyone. One barbecue we ran into was ONLY A BACON BARBEQUE... So y'all know that was my favorite one. They honestly had about 7 pounds of bacon and that's all people were eating. haha It was great. 

Our little Miracle:  This area is a pretty tough area when it comes to finding. But that is okay. Last week we had a good week, and this week is looking even better. But we were planning on having 2 of our investigators come to church, however when we got their none of them came. We were really bummed but right when we realized none of them came, this man came up to me. He very excitedly told me that his sister was in the back, and she wasn't a member and he wanted us to come meet her. We had been fasting and praying to find who the lord wanted us to find. So we went back and met the sweetest lady named Ann. She immediately hugged us and talked about how she loved the people of this church, and was shocked to see girl versions of "Elders". We were able to go through all of church with her and she is the most wonderful and prepared lady! we are so excited. All is well here in Morgan Hill. Have a wonderful week everyone. God is real. He listen to your prayers. I know he does. :)
