Week 53


July 3, 2017
Hey all! 
This week was great! My birthday was wonderful! What can I  say, I'm an old woman ;) haha just kidding haha. 
I also, just got my offical note from my mission president saying that my official realease date is December 22nd!! Which is weird! Its already July... that's just a weird thought is it not?? I feel like a new missionary still. 
Life has been great! On my birthday we went to Hillerød with Sister Barney and Sister Batey because that is their area right now, and they picked us up in the car. They had balloons all around ahah. Then we went and ate Sunset Boulevard burgers it was wonderful! Then we went to the Frederiksborg Slot , then ate Paradis ice cream! Yum! ! It was a great birthday!
This p day, as in today, we left and used the early time in the morning to go up to Helsingør and go to Kronborg Slot! Helsingør is the closest place on the slot you can get to Sverige (Sweden in danish) and not be in Sweden ahha. You can see it across the water very clearly it was so cool! And Kronborg was so cool! It wasn't Insanely full of furniture, like most, because the swedes stole almost all of it .It was great! 
We had a few mintues left to contact people the other day, so we decided to talk to one more person before heading back to our bikes.. I stopped a man and he at first looked at me and as I was mentioning who we were, his face looked so uninterested, but then we talked to him and he was like "oh you do what? you believe in what?" 
We talked with him on the street for an hour and a half! Then as we were winding up our conversation with him another guy walks up to us and says "Hey are you mormon missionaries?"and Kenneth(the first guy) says  "oh listen to what they have say they are the sweetest girls ever! Then he was like i'll get ahold of you because we had given him a choice between 2 cards and which one he wanted most, and he took both ahha.  Then we talked to the other guy for a few minutes, apparently he got a book of mormon from sisters several years ago and would be interested in meeting again! So that was cool! We realized after we were running back to our bikes, that we didn't get kenneths number which we were way sad about! but we have hope that it'll all work out and he will get ahold of us soon :) he is so prepared!
Anywhoo, life is great.  My one year mark on the mission happened, and that was great as well ahah. My one year of actually being IN Denmark is coming oup on the 10th of August, so that will also be great! Hope you all have a wonderful 4th of July for me and may the Fourth be with you! :)-
