Hey Y'all!
     This week has been AWESOME! We had 2 trade offs this week. On Monday night we went over to probably my favorite member's house in the ward, Sis. May. She is awesome! I tried on her fur coat and her cowboy hat. She loves them and I can't say I have anything against it. 


Tuesday we had trade offs with Elder Stanley and Elder Ward. I went with Elder Stanley and we had a super fun time. We knocked 3 doors and found 2 new investigators only because the middle door didn't even answer. It was a miracle! And we are going to invite one of them to baptism this week! We also raced each other and he destroyed me. WE had to give an emergency blessing to a pregnant lady at the hospital too so that was awesome.

Wednesday was pretty uneventful. Thursday I went on a trade off with my former child Elder Smith. It was SO MUCH FUN. We were machines that day. We taught 9 people in a single day. It was really awesome to see how much he's grown since he was just a little bitty greenie. We talked about life and had Elders Quorum trade offs that night. We went and saw a couple of our investigators and both of the people we dropped in on we're home and we were able to teach them! (Never happens.) so that was great father son bonding time. I'm so pumped he's in my zone!

Friday we had weekly planning and taught some people. We had dinner with the Whitakers in the Ward and taught Emmanuel who is getting baptized this Sunday!  So that was a birthday present in and of itself. Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday! Saturday was crazy. We taught a bunch of people but they were all crazy. We taught this one and the lesson was going super good, and then out of nowhere he just starts going off about how we become trees when we die and then we become dogs and the man that owns us has to wash us, etc. It was way weird. Yesterday we had no one come to church but found out after that we had one who was driving around town looking for it and tried calling but we had no signal at the church so that was heartbreaking, BUT we did get in contact with him after church and invited him to the baptism at the church that night and he came!! It was great.
