Questions Being Answered:
- This week went pretty swell thanks for asking!
- Yeah we got a couple days of rain, I just wore my big jacket and didn't care about everything else. So it was pretty fun, thanks for the rain checkup!
- No I do not have a poncho but that's OK!
- We have had a couple missionaries leave early due to illnesses and other problems but it happens to everyone. I don't know about the number of missionaries but I know it happens. I'll be knowing more about things soon though (I'll let you know why in a bit).
- Nope I did not get pinched thankfully. That was because Elder Pedersen was sick for an entire two days and he absolutely hated not being able to work. So we all got stuck in the apartment unfortunately but that means we get to work extra hard!
- Not yet, I'll stop by an Wells Fargo ATM some time, no worries. You don't have to email President Taylor, its gonna be alright. I haven't been using my Wells Fargo account card but I'll let you know when I get the chance to look at it.

SO TO START OFF. I do not have a lot of time to email thanks to some complications this Preparation Day and other things that happened so I apologize in advance for the shortness. So fun story... Yesterday I got called by President Taylor that I will be serving as an Office Elder starting tomorrow. He wants me to come in early and get trained by the Office Elders now so I will be able to focus my attention to the needs of the mission and I'll have to treasure time that I get to proselyte even more than ever. So I have to get packing even earlier... I also found out that while I am an Office Elder I'll be able to help initiate our mission becoming a smart phone technology mission, which means we might become Facebook Missionaries so I'll be helping out with that. Its pretty crazy but I am looking forward to it. 

Sounds like you guys were able to have a really fun time and I am so glad that our family is so connected. While on the mission I have grown to love everything I was given and with the knowledge that has blessed our lives. The family unit is so powerful and important which means we HAVE to keep it all together and we will see the blessings that comes from being a connected family. I wish I could talk more about these things but time is super short so hopefully I have more time next Monday. Except next Monday is Transfer Days so I'll be helping people out with that since I'll be an Office Elder... Its going to be so much fun and work. I'll look forward to telling you more about it (all this was said with a smile on my face, love you!!!!)

Thanksgiving Week!

Hey Mom and Dad! This last week went by pretty slow for me (I think because it was week six of transfers so it felt weird). That's funny that all the kiddos want to sleep in, no more its time to get up and get work boys and girls! You guys already set up the Christmas tree? Nice! Sounds like you guys will be having a blast with the cousins up in Pinetop, make sure to send me some pictures! That's pretty funny that you got called to be the Sunday School President, I'm sure on of those kids is gonna need your help and love while you are fulfilling your calling. Teaching is going pretty interestingly, its the holidays so not many people are home or are with family outside the area but some more people are home so its odd but fun! I'll be spending Thanksgiving with a lesser active family called the Whites and they invited us for dinner so I'm happy for that! The Ward is absolutely amazing, the people are so nice to the missionaries and we practically have a dinner every...

Did You Think to Pray? I actually took pictures this week. And for some odd reason this computer is denying me the right to access those photos... Hold back the pitchforks for now, I'll fix the problem sometime soon. But besides from that one. The title comes from a praying mantis I saw while knocking on doors. I went to go ring a doorbell and there is this giant praying mantis guarding the bell. I ended up not wanting to fight the thing and knocked on the door. Something our mission does every transfer (which is a six week period of time kept by missionaries), we have this thing called a zone conference. And all the missionaries here in the desert got together. Which is always a fun experience being out for little over 13 months now seeing people I've grown to meet and love during my time here and catching up with them. But the whole reason we got together was to learn and grow in our service out here. And something that stuck out to me was learning to set goals, but mo...

Hello Mom and Dad!

Thanksgiving was really awesome, we had dinner with a family where they have 5 boys and we got to spend our one dinner with them for that night. Got to eat deviled eggs, ham, turkey, mashed potatoes, crackers and cheese with ham, chili, some barbecue hotdogs, and lots of other food which was amazing! Everything else over here is going very well though! Although Elder Olson got sick for a day and we had to drive to an Urgent Care outside our zone so that was fun. Elder Olson is pretty much the same height as me and everything, why do you ask? I don't think its cold enough to get any extra layers of clothes or anything but thanks! That's awesome that everyone of the kids is doing well and doing the things they love! Funny how as soon as I leave you start having missionaries over for dinner, maybe we'll have to invite some more when I get back from my mission or something. Um I don't know anything about plans for Christmas yet but I'll email you when I find out the det...
