Hi Momma!!

Yeah yesterday with MLK the library was closed and we didn't really have the opportunity to email but today we went to a business center really close to our apartment complex. So I could email from the business center here or at the library not too far from us but its got some more distance and we are on bike.

This week we got to go eat dinner with three families. The Cases', Browers, and the Francis' which was pretty fun. I heard what happened with Cami so I hope everything goes well back in the office and I hope Cami is doing alright too.

Sounds like you were having a lot of fun with the kiddos and their busy busy schedules. Funny how at so young they could be so busy all the time. I am learning a little bit of Spanish from my companion but I haven't asked to learn any I guess. I could have him teach me but we need all the time we can get to talk to people during the day because on bike it takes some time and distance to travel to people and we are talking along the way. Maybe I can learn an itty bitty bit. 

Everything out here has been going pretty well though. Just last week it rained from Monday night all the way through Tuesday to Wednesday morning was when it cleared up. So we got to bike around in the rain and get extremely soaked and pretty much talk with no one the entire time (because everything is safe and cozy in their homes) so that was pretty fun. On top of everything though its been a crazy week with bike problems and weather and just navigation in general in this area it gets pretty interesting out here. We are trying our best out here and committed ourselves to try harder to meet our goals and help others progress in the gospel. We had a couple lessons and discussions about the Book of Mormon with some of our investigators this week and actually find another person, Rafael, who we are going to try and teach the entire family too. Its pretty awesome!

I failed at taking pictures again last week with everything going on but I'll TRY to make a conscious effort to take pictures and other things for you. Otherwise I love you lots and hope everything goes well for everyone back home!!

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...

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...

I heard about that from another email and all those posts on Facebook about it. Tell her I send her my best wishes and prayers for them. Be safe on the way there! That was fun to hear about Grant though, he'll become a superstar the more he works at it, and that basketball court will help out, tell him when I get back I'll ball with him!  Concerning that jacket, just something more casual, the only one I have is that big one from the beginning so its can get warm. Just something for the preparation days or just lounging around at night. Probably should have but more information on that request, my bad! You can have Bryson pick something out, I'll make sure to email him today and maybe he'll do the same. We had some really cool things happen this week though. We started teaching this older couple, Ralph and Terry, and they are such great people. Ralph is currently in a wheelchair because he lost a foot, and I swear the jokes he cracks are phenomenal. This is my f...
