Matthew...not so tough


Hi Family and Friends,

This week was interesting! There was a hurricane here and I did die. SIKE. It barely hit the part of South Carolina I am in! We were asked to stay inside and there has been a county wide curfew because half the town doesn't have power. But we do! Haha. We lost for like 4 hours during the storm but that was it. 



The hurricane has been the ONLY thing people down here have been wanting to talk about for about a week. So we tried to visit people but all they wanted to do was ask us if we were ready for the storm!



We did have a fun time with Bruce though. His 63 birthday was this week so we made him a cake! We met him at the other Elders apartment and gave it to him and he put it in his truck and then we just stayed outside and talked to him for a few minutes. Then when he went to leave he looped back around past us, leaned out the window and yelled "WOOOO CHOCOLATE CAKE AROMA. I MIGHT HAVE ME A SLICE BEFORE I GET HOME" It was hilarious and we almost died laughing. 



Another funny thing! We were on exchanges and were biking through a rougher area and a group of guys asked us to stop so they could "holla at us fo a minute" so we did. And they asked us to ride our bikes though again slowly so they could get it in their music video. So we went back and rode through nice and slow and they had a weirdly nice camera and filmed us riding through while they were dancing to some rap music and it was pretty fun. 




Another interesting thing that happened was church got cancelled! So we went out and tried to do some post hurricane service which was nice but the whole day was just off. I love everyone and miss them so much! Hope everyone has a great week!
