Conference week and his visa!!!!!

ey Family!!
Love you all so much its unbelievable!
This week has been really great! But we have district pday so ill write as much as possible since this a huge week! :)
I absolutely loved conference! It was the best and fastest conference of my life, who wouldve known 10 hours could fly by so fast! Man it was so fun to take notes. I was super impressed how the theme of the conference has been on families and the role they play. I liked the phrase of the family is the KEY to eternal happiness. The missionaries watched conference at the church which was super fun. bought a lot of snacks and pretty much i ate sugar the whole day haha Yea dad priesthood was rough as well for me, couldnt help but think of Chuckarama and all the great times. But sadly as well i only got to watch the last hour of priesthood, we went to fill up our car and this lady had locked her keys in her car. so we spent like an hour and a half trying to pick the lock. well elder olsen tried, he is like the smartest and craftiest kid i know. we had to get triple a out to unlock it so that was dumb to miss, ill have to print of the talks or something that i missed.
Ive agreed with the family on there favorite talks from Whitney Clayton and Elder Holland, and also dads choice as well. I think I enjoyed Claytons just a tiny bit more but cant really decide.
Umm ya so it has been a great week, really fast and we have been working with the investigators we have found last 2 weeks. hopefully we will have 4 baptismal dates by the end of this week. we have some pretty cool people we are meeting with right now. One of them came to a session at the church with us so that was awesome! sorry i cant describe them, dont have time.
The mcbrides are a family out here who have a son out in california on his mission. he has been out a little longer than i, but has had some serious foot issues so he has been struggling. things are looking better for him now though.
Ill tell shortly of elder olsen, he is very cool and smart but is also very funny and we are having a great time together. He is very dedicated and does not waste any time even when it comes to like lunch and dinner. No relaxation for him, he is always moving and thinking of things to fix in the apartment. his dad is a engineer so makes sense.
ya thats about it for me this week it was fun, elder olsen caught a duck as i was making calls to people on a bench in a park. he got them to get really close by baiting them with woodchips that they thought was bread. it was pretty hiliarious, it was the funniest moment of the mission.
love you all and have a great week!
-Elder Conrad
PS I got my Visa to India :)
