Hey Ma! Hey Dad!

OK before I start typing I am at the library and forgot to bring my camera with me so I PROMISE WITH ALL MY HEART that there will be pictures next week. I know I am super irresponsible when it comes to giving pictures just bare with me here. Yeah actually I got to goto that mall, its the Ontario Mills Mall and its in our zone so we got to go there for Preparation Day, got to roam around and look at everything, was pretty fun. I'll look at the serial number too and let you know with the model name as well next P-Day. 

 How's it going Dadio? How's work treating you and the kids? If they aren't behaving just wait about over a year and a half and I'll come give em a little talk. Just kidding though! I got the little picture from Savi with her ram prize with the "Pew Pew". Really looks like she had a good time with you and everyone else, she is definitely a better shot than me. 

Everything here has been doing pretty well though! Unfortunately me and my companion keep running into every bike mechanic problem known on planet earth. We are going to try and fix everything hopefully today so we can get back on track with our work efficiency. We've had to walk practically everywhere and we can't get to everyone we want to talk to so it kind of stinks but we are trying out best. Just yesterday we were able to teach someone who moved into our apartment complex from the islands of Samoa. Gabriel has a lot of Mormon friends so we started talking with him and hopefully he'll have the desire to learn more! On top of that we have been doing our best to help our investigators progress in the gospel and talk to everyone around us.

My companion Elder de la Torre only has two weeks left and then he goes home from his 2-Transfer mission and that is when the Quorum of the Twelve will I guess decide whether or not he needs to serve a full time mission. He has progressed so much from when I first became his companion but there is still room for improvement because we are all human beings. All together it'll be sad when he has to leave but that's life so we just go on with what our Heavenly Father has planned for us.

On my mission I've grown to LOVE the scriptures so much more than I ever could imagine. I took for granted the power behind from knowing and reading the gospel that I grew up with and I'm sorry for not appreciating it until now while I am out here. Just everytime that I read the Book of Mormon or the Bible just something new sticks out to me, its so weird and spooky but its just super cool. Also the power of prayer is just phenomenal. 

Everything has been going pretty well over here though. I look forward to reading the email you'll send sometime today, just today we decided to email earlier today because why not. But anyways I LOVE YOU!! Be safe and tell everyone I said "Hi!"

From,
Elder Brimhall

January 1, 2018 - Hi Mom!

Sorry that I am emailing a little late right now, was busy going through a meeting for "Train the Trainers" because I am now training a missionary who has been for only 1 transfer. So currently I have been transferred to Ontario where I am now in a bike area so that'll be pretty fun and I am training Elder De La Torre who is from Las Vegas Nevada! Its going to be a little weird since now I see trees everyone and there are sooo many houses and just people everywhere in this green environment instead of being stuck in the desert. But altogether its been a pretty fun week, it was my last week with Elder Olson and we had so much fun together while working and just when it was starting to pick up I get moved out, but President Taylor feels it best for me to be here for Elder DeLaTorre so I'll do my best and help him out. I don't have a lot of time to email but hopefully next week I'll be able to actually give you a lot of information about whats going and picture...

Hello Mom and Dad!!

Glad to hear everyone is doing really well! What is actually funny is since I was still a little sick I called the mission nurse and she asked me who she just saw, and mentioned Mom dropping by with Sister Kerby's mom dropping off gifts so that caught me off guard. But that is super awesome that you took the time and love to give gifts to everyone! Time can fly by pretty quickly sometimes and other days it just seems to drag on for awhile but all together I've been out for more than 4 months now... Time really has just flew. And YES we do get to talk on Christmas using Skype, I recently got an email from my Mission President with information on rules and regulations. We get about 30-40 minutes at the maximum and I believe we'll be able to text your number with the member's phone or call ahead as we prepare to Skype (the Hannett Family offered their home for Skyping for us). But for everything pertaining to that on Christmas Day even though its supposed to be our Prepara...

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...
