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!!!!)

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...
