Helllooo Family. Here i am in little Harrison of course. Last week was alright. We ran out of miles so we had to walk a thousan miles everyplace(crap, thats how Ryan would say it) abd Humidity is so freaking stupid i hate it. We were doorknocking a few days ago and it was probably like 60 degrees or less but it had just rained. i was sweating like a hog! i sweat worse on that day than a 85 degree day walking in the sun. blaaggh! ok im over it.....I hope i get a wedding announcement You'll send one...*fists a shaking* thats way cool though im excited. send some Hamiltons my way please! Im getting a little bit better at this missionary thing, its getting more and more exciting everyday. Every person is a new experience. its like a new challenge everytime. Im happier too, so that helps out when i talk to people. i notice people will start smiling and listening better when im happy and excited about what im sharing. so it is becoming fun. Mornings still suck terribly! OH MAN! The worst day of my life happens every morning. and then after lunch its over. But i took a Sunday nap yesterday after dinner and i think that fixed me. so im making that a requiremement from now on. Sunday nap time. I didnt appreciate a good nap until that one, mm mm it feels good. Im still learning what to say at all the situations i come to, but Elder Little is showing me what to say and stuff. Sometimes i wish he would shut up so i could get a word in, but whatev. I dont think i have reallly been yelled at yet. but im excited for the day. You can always send treats with any package you send me, thats a silly question! That way i wouldnt have to eat all of Elder Littles! haha i eat all his candy. The big doofus. He thought he could win me in an arm wrestle!(Dad will appreciate this)I thought he could too! he's 6'6" and 230 pounds and he looks muscular, But i kicked his butt. hehe, then i told him to stop being a pansy and taught him how to do it and he won, but just barely. Im huge, haha. A lady at a garage sale gave us an Arnold Swarzeneggar encyclopedia of body building book. haha so we have been reading how to get huge. its kinda funny....i think...soooo about this "amp"... you cant just say Kory Broke the amp hah.... was it mine? does it still work? Details please! has he installed his system yet? I must know!Im not sure if i told you I gave a talk? well i did last sunday. it was on Pioneers so im really happy grandma gave me those stories, cuz they really helped out..We have dinner with the Lee's every friday night. I told him i play guitar, so he pulls out his brand new Alvarez guitar! the same one Jeron had! it was so awesome. I might have to buy a guitart off ebay, because i cant find one anywhere. We had hobo dinners and just sat around the fire. I love going over there. And we also had dinner at the Bartlets. And i found out his Brother/cousin is Bob Bartlett in Newton! The name sounded familiar so i thought id pass it on. I loved going there too. it was the most "at home" i have felt since coming here to Michigan. We joked and there was lots of sarcasm, we shot squirrels off his deck. It was a good time. I even ate some spaghetti and loved it... wierd i know. Sad news, 2 of our investigators dropped us...it was really wierd. Melissa believed everything we said, she felt the Spirit. but Don, got caught up on the Spirit World and some scriptures in the Bible. They are joining the Baptists, he even said 'i think people that dont have a chance to hear about Christ will be judged accordingly after this life......' but thats not what the Baptist believe. Its either Heaven or Hell with them, so hopefully he realizes that. We are still going to go over and see them and stuff. cuz they were really cool. We picked one up yesterday at church tho, so that was good. Her mom is a member and she wants to learn more, so thats pretty sweet. We went up to Marion the other day because we had some referrals. It was the first time we had gone there and they were having some "old fashion days" so the whole town was going crazy. there was a one man band, who i took some pictures of. he would chase people around as he played his keyboard and sang. he was goofy. They had a pretty sweet car show too! there were a lot of sweet Camaros, like 6 i think. i took pictures of them all so you could see if any of them were like yours. i couldnt remember what year you had, so i took pictures of all of them. Im going to write to Grandma Larsen today. I feel so bad for not writing her sooner, oooops. Well i ran out of things to say. Im doing better all the time here and im learning a lot! There is so much i dont know its rediculous, so im studying hard and learning all i can. Hope everyone is doing good. Tell me whats happening in good ol cache valley. I really miss that place. and i miss you guys more. But its getting easier all the time. I love you all and hope you are doing well in all your adventures. talk to you next week!the one and only,Elder larsen
