April 13, 2015

ey Family!
Well another day and another week that has gone by. O how the time flies, its incredible! This week was of pretty good. I guess it was a little slower than usual but thats probably because ive been thinking about India a little. but that doesnt mean it was bad, it went well. We had our interviews with the mission president that happens every 3 months which was good. He kind of just thanked me for the time that they had me here and that kind of stuff, but I ended up asking him if I could join the departing missionaries this week in attending a temple session one last time before India since there wont be one there. That would be so awesome to go but he didnt give me a direct yes unfortunately.
Anyhow Ill tell of a way fun experience we had two nights ago, we went to see this less active memeber after dinner and had to bike there, we meet with him and he is doing good. oh ya you know him the rich guy who will take me to colombia when I get back haha he again invited me :) anyways but they gave us some food, which was shrimp including the head, feet and tail. Which I was like just great... but i tried a couple and they were actually really good. Did take the things off the shrimp of course but the sauce the had on it was so good and spicy! Preparing myself for India which im doomed for. This one member gives a small tempin pepper to missionaries and I just tear up so fast even when its not even hot!! sheesh anyways again I digress, but during the meeting with Walner, it started to pour rain. It had been like the hottest and perfect day do far. Came out of nowhere. So we were like well we got to bike home now... I was like well what the heck, lets go!
ran to our bikes and took off! It was so fun, i was drenched to the bone before i even got to the bike! :) and then the 6.5 mile bike ride home in the storm. which the street and sidewalks were usually covered with 4-12 inches of water the first 3 miles. It was sooo fun, but super hard to peddle. I wish i couldve seen the reactions to all the cars that drove by haha
Lessons have been going pretty good, we have 2 investigators who are progressing really well but have had trouble getting them to church. And it doesnt help that we need to find them rides for like all of them. But the members are pretty good in helping us out with them.
We meet this girl age 16 while knocking which turned out to be a pretty good contact, she is up to meeting with us except her parents are not, so we made sure it was okay with her to meet with us. I mightve touched on that last week sorry haha
umm trevor got his visa as you probably have talked to the pattens so thats cool, hopefully ill see him.
wow whoops, sorry to waste so much time on the storm story but ill talk to you next week hopefully on the phone!! yayaya haha and sorry dad, yes im getting the letters from grandma and grandpa! im so appreciative of them!
love you all and have a great week!
