Washington has shut down

Family and Friends!

Washington has shut down. The world seems to be falling apart. Why is this happening? Because it snowed 4 inches. I had no idea that a surprise snowfall would put a halt to the life here but alas, that is the outcome! Yesterday stores were closed, the library was closed and basically Washington was deserted! IT WAS CRAZY! We had P-day yesterday but we were given the chance to email today when life resumed so that’s nice :) It was fun to play in though! Sister Skousen and I went out and played with our neighbors and their 3 kids! We went sledding down the hill next to our house and had a snowball fight! It was lots of fun so I guess there were some perks :) Our car was stuck in the driveway till 12 when the sun shone for a little and the snow started to turn to slush. We thought we were going to be stranded forever but God is good and faith is important to have in such circumstances!
It has been a crazy week! Our lessons have fallen through and we have had to drop a few investigators, BUT miracles still occur each and every day! Lauren, our investigator on date for March 4th is still doing so well! She bore her testimony with me this Sunday and told everyone that her motto was to be like Nephi! She is just amazing! She told everyone that they better be at her baptism.  I think we better get them all there :) I am so grateful for her! She has such a desire to go to the temple and I keep telling her that she should drive to AZ to see the Tuscan one before it’s dedicated. She is seriously thinking about it! Ha ha I am converting people to the best place ever! But I don’t know if that’s allowed so shhhh..... anyway, the work is work and yet I enjoy it! Some days are harder than others but I still like being here which is amazing! 
Quick story, we have had a battle between the office elders and us James hill sisters of who can put the strange angel thing in the picture in the most random place. (Basically sending it back and forth in different ways). the other day we got a box full of SUPER old candy from a mysterious person... we didn't know who for about 2 days till we opened the can of those cookie things and lo and behold, there it was. Peering up at us! Those sneaky moms are gunna get it good 😎

I didn’t leave much time for this email... my bad, but next week I’ll give a better sum up of my life! I will send pics this week though! Pictures are worth a thousand words right??
Love you all!

Sister Reynolds!
