me and steve/Elder Wilson, BYu bud
playing with tape
Whiting, me and burnhamWow, that was a BLAST skyping you guys. I loved being able to see everyone! So much fun. I can’t even describe it. that family is easily one of my favorites out here. Elder Burnham bought some pogs at a garage sale for 25 cents (I got a volleyball, cd player, and baseball glove for a dollar fifty.) and we learned how to play them and its been pretty fun! haha Yeah, i’m learning some sweet skills and stuff. Maybe we can actually do that addition to the storage room we always talked about! Put a bathroom up there and stuff. jeah! but it was awesome talking to you guys, i can’t even describe it.
The weather has been pretty good here. Nothing too drastic, we’ve had some rain, which is nice. I’ve always liked the sound of rain on a car. So soothing. But its been decently warm, so that's been nice. I miss CA warmth so bad!! I can’t remember if i told you this or not, but we were helping out with a community clean up, and some Jehovah's’ witness’s startied talking to my comp. I don't think they knew who we were. But i grabbed a Book of Mormon from the car and when they offered us their lil magazine i gave em a book and surprisingly they took it. I was under the impression that they can’t accept other books. but what ev. And they kept trying to convince me of stuff like how we can’t add to the bible, Jehovah is god, and all that, but i stumped em. She kept changing subjects, it was funny. But yeah, i probably shouldn't have bashed like i did, but we were trying to get stuff done, and e whiting looked a little annoyed. SO yeah. That was fun. We helped give a blessing to a special needs boy and it was so cool. he was kinda nervous about us standing around him and stuff, but as soon as we started with the blessing he calmed right down. It was really neat. We just had Stake conference and it was pretty neat. President Priday had all the missionaries come up and say some memorized scriptures and stuff. ANd supposedly the camera zoomed on me for a second so i got a little bit of spotlight, haha. Man, I really love this whole being a missionary thing. Its such a blast. So much fun with so many people. Well, time to jet, but i love you all so much!
