Question Time it is:
1. Anything fun for Labor Day? Not really unfortunately, most of the places I thought of going to are closed unfortunately. But its alright, the people out here in California need a break from all their "busyness" if we can call it that. Just getting the shopping done, washing the car, cleaning the place, and what not.
2. How was the week? This week had a couple twists and turns. I'll explain a bit more detail in a bit, but to simplify it. We had a truck, then we became bike missionaries, thighs feels like rocks, and knocking lots of doors.

Something kind of funny happened just this past week. We were teaching Chase about recognizing the Spirit through Prayer and Scripture Study and during the lesson, an earthquake happened. We were sitting on his porch, talking with him, and the ground just started moving and it was pretty loud... We learned later it was a 4.4 magnitude and it didnt last long, but it was pretty amazing. Little frightening, but amazing.

Our vechile coordinator wanted to get our truck fixed up since it had been roughed up by previous missionaries, so for the time being we have been on bike. Which its been awhile, and oh my goodness I am out of shape. We should be getting our truck back hopefully tomorrow. You really appreciate things when they are gone for a little bit. 

Glad to hear everyone is having fun out there! Looks like the kiddos are enjoying it! Yup, transfers are coming up this next Monday and we'll be getting the new Office Elder tomorrow. Its going to be hectic, but I think I'll be going back yo the desert, its been a little while, time to make some more sand angels. But I believe I should email you and everyone on Monday, we'll see what happens I guess.

There really wasnt much that happened this week. And emailing is kind of being a chore today more than usual. Sorry fpe the lack of material in here... I'm thinking of writing drafts throughout the days tbat way I have more information about what happened. 

Either way, always glad to hear back from you Momma! Make sure to remind Bryson that I still exist out here. LOVE YOU MOMMA!!

Hi Momma!

Yeah I am in a new area, and in a new apartment which is a lot nicer than the older one I stayed in, just has a lot more room (I forgot to take pictures which I promise to do that). It's just me and Elder de La Torre in this apartment. From what I can tell you Elder de La Torre is from Las Vegas, Nevada which is super close to our mission and it turns out he is actually a "trial missionary" and he might be staying in this mission or be called to somewhere else. His mom is a member and his father is currently investigating in the church so it's pretty cool. He loves music and played in a mariachi band for a little while and did orchestra so he is pretty awesome, and he speaks fluent spanish which helps when we run into a lot of spanish speaking people here in Ontario.  Yeah it is kind of crazy how fast time has flown by honestly, I feel like I've been here for awhile even though I haven't and even though the end is far away it seems to be coming up kind of qu...

Question Time: 1. My week was definitely interesting, I'll tell you about it in a bit later on in this email. 2. I have no idea yet, I'll be in the office tomorrow so I'll look for it and see if it came in the mail. We don't open those suckers until later and its going to be quite a hassle trying to figure these things out before we roll out ALL the smartphones to all the missionaries but I am looking forward to it and seeing the success that can be found. And yes I will be becoming a Facebook missionary, whoopdy doo for you! 3. Ideas for him? Well I was thinking of trying to get him something but I keep running out of time and forgetting but don't tell him that. I LOVE HIM, just shipping is really expensive... But maybe something that I thought of is giving him a book series called Mystborn or another series by Brandon Sanderson, I heard his books are really awesome and I'll probably read them when I get back. I honestly don't know, you know better th...

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...
