Conference this weekend was really good. Unfortunately we didn't have any investigators to watch it with haha so we were stuck at the institute all day Saturday and at the church building on Sunday.
The other district watched it at the Pullman church building together and so we joined them and made brunch in between session. It was a lot of fun and we had a lot of pancakes.
Also, yesterday after the afternoon session we got together with the missionaries next door and had dinner together. We were still eating and they had a an appointment with one of our neighbors upstairs so they left and asked us to lock the door on our way out after we ate. We did that.... After we stacked all of their chairs in the center of the room, put a chair in the shower with a plush shark sitting on it, and took out all their suitcases on their beds with a note making a joke to the missionary that goes home at the end of this transfer. We did a couple of other random things to their apartment. All of it was just to distract them from realizing that we taped the sink's spray nozzle thing (i forget what they are called) So that it will spray them when they turn on the sink. We left a note that said, "You really left us alone?"
They got back from their appointment and then came straight to our door after finding what we did (everything but the spray nozzle) We thought their reaction was pretty funny. But they made us help them clean up.
That night at about 9:30 one of them walked into our apartment, his shirt was completely soaked. Elder F. and I could't stop laughing.
It sounds lame, but it was a lot of fun :)
On Thursday, Elder L. had to go to a meeting in Spokane so we were with Elder L. all day. It was a blast. He has been teaching us how to say random phrases in Chinese. So far our favorite one to use, is "I am a handsome boy" We went to the institute for a meeting class that Elder L. was teaching to the Chinese group. Whenever a someone would come into the room, he would turn to us and say, "Go say it to them" And one of us would go over and say it and everyone would burst out laughing. It was a lot of fun.
On our way to a dinner appointment that night we saw some really cool clouds, I got a couple pictures

There is this thing going around the mission that someone started. There is a rabbit skull (it was sterilized) that someone taped a piece of paper that says "TAG!" onto.The goal is to give it to another companionship without them knowing. Whether that's putting it in their apartment, car or bag. Just as long as they don't see you do it. And you can't give it to missionaries who know that you have it. We found it sitting on our table on Monday, so we put it in the bathroom of the missionaries next door. At zone training, we got in the car with some of the other missionaries and as we were going down the road the driver realized that the skull was on the dashboard. it was hilarious. We missionaries need to stay entertained somehow, right?
Other than those few things, not much has really happened this week. We have done a lot of visiting members and getting them ready for conference and none of the people we are actually teaching were able to meet during the week. This week should be more productive with missionary work.
