April Fool's Letter!

Life is good in Taber. We recently just set a date again with the Pickett's, and i really think they are sincere this time. their parents are really pushing them and it just feels like things are going well. We're pretty close to asking some of the seminary kids to take lessons. There's 16 non member attending! Isn't that crazy? I'm excited because we're heading out to this shack in the middle of nowhere for pday and its gonna be sweet. I'm excited. I love how when we teach, the Spirit really whispers the truth to the investigators, and they feel the need for the gospel in their lives, and feel the need for repentance. its a great work! and i really have to use the washroom right now i gotta gooooo aghhhhhhhhh

Hey! Some more things i wanted to mention.
November 2008 ensign, is that Spencer on pg 74? There's a kid who looks and acts just like him, and i was curious if i could get some confirmation to that.
At Zone conference, we are randomly asked to give a 5 minute talk on whatever. I finally got chosen, it was my first time, and i think it went really well. It was on prayer and i got to share some personal experiences on it and stuff. And you won't believe this, but my district was asked to do a musical number and i sang. on my gosh i sang. with a cold. Never again. hahaha we sang "Ye Elders of Israel." SO we couldn't screw it up to bad. one thing I really saw at zone conference is that when things aren't going well and we don't feel directed, we need to take a step back and look at the big picture of where our life is going and what we are doing. And if we aren't doing right things, we see that we need to fix them.
Dad, get a 3 piece suit, trust me. It'll go well with your fathers day present. I'm sure you can get one at any thrift store, or who knows, maybe you still got one somewhere. trust me. just do it.
Tell me more about how things are going at home! people, events, etc. Its so crazy how fast time is going. I can't believe it!
