Hi
guys -
So
first things first, I didn’t know that Mikah was planning on a mission?!?! That’s awesome – Germany, Austria,
Switzerland - WOW!! She and I will
probably finish around the same time.
Cody’s having another baby? Is that the purpose of the shower? If so
that’s awesome! Ok apparently you’ve
been slacking on keeping me up to date on what’s goin on at home!
I
got your package the day of our conference. I’m not sure if it was opened, but it was wrapped in some plastic
wrap stuff. I know it wasn’t you
guys because it had Argentina written all over it, but yes I got everything,
the watches, Ensigns, post-its, tie, candy, and Christ dvd. They are awesome! Thank you!!
I’m
super happy that the dogs and you guys had a great time at the dog beach! Cannot
believe a dog peeing on Theo!! Poor guy – no you’re not a pansy, you just turned the other
cheek, right buddy! What the heck!
We
didn’t get a chance to teach or talk with the daughter of Bruno because she has
a crazy work schedule. We have an
appointment with them today so hopefully she’ll be there. No I wasn’t able to see the
puppies. We went to their house
and of course I asked if I could see them, they were in another room, and they
told me no! Apparently the mom is a very protective pitbull…. I thought it wise
not to poke the bear lol.
This
week wasn’t as hot, but it had its moments - last week was killer. One day, last week, I think it was
Tuesday we got a call from the zone leaders and they said that we were going on
splits, but they were going to be a little different. My comp was with one of
the assistance and I was with one of the zone leaders. Elder Philpot, from Utah I think, was
my comp and he’s been out for about 20 months. We worked in part of our area
where we don’t have a lot going on so it was mostly looking for new
investigators or less actives that haven’t been to church in years. Most weren’t home, but we were still
able to have some success. I was
able to learn quite a bit from him, and tomorrow we have another split but this
one is normal, with the other elders in our district. We re going to have a
baptism this Saturday! She
is nine years old, her mom is less active and I don’t think the dad is in the
picture. It’s really the grandma
that’s active and wants her granddaughter to be baptized. We got permission from the mom so we
are going to baptize her this Sat.
It was pretty fun teaching a nine year old to be honest. We drew pictures and had a lot of
examples, cookies for the law of tithing, and things like that to keep a nine
year old interested lol.
Oh
and I’m pretty sure that I’m going to have a different pres for the last six
months of my mission. I love you
guys! Keep up the great work! Kiss my puppies for me! Talk to you soon! Love you!!
