Hello family!
So Bro Mckay took off for a few days without telling us! haha what a funny man. So we didnt have a dinner appointment last night and i had to pay to get my laundry done! First time in 4 months. Stupid stupid stupid. So i got the package and i loved it all the candy is almost gone. ive been making myself sick on it like i do. Oh and by the way. Those otter pops that you sent me a long time ago i ate all of them in i think a week and a half. i had 20 in one day once......it was sweet....im tellin ya.
I cant believe what happened to baby sis! I could punch somebody! Was it our car or someone elses? Stupid no good rotten mongrels! I like how they left my picture in there though. Thats sweet. hah. that makes me so mad though. AAAAHHH. Ill strangle them!.... And the Christ-like attributes kick in...aah...all better.
Yes ive gone tracting. haha i think thats what you asked. You have a picture of my first door knock ever....oh wait maybe not. Little has it! anyways that was my first day out. so ya. We dont do a whole lot of door-knocking because it isnt very effective. But i like to do it anyways, my comp hates it though...whatev.
So we taught the WoW to Amy and it went alright, she wants to quit. Its going to be hard because her "boyfirend" doesnt really support the idea. What a jerk he is. So on Saturday i decided we were just going to drive to Gladwin and see if Sheila was home, and we did. And she was totally there and invited us in and we read the scriptures with her. We read about the Tree of Life and explained it and talked a little bit more about church and the things that go on. Im pretty sure the reason she hasnt come is because she is scared people will think bad about her if she does something wrong. She said she would come and then she didnt....of course....Im pretty ticked. Oh and while we were teaching her a cigarette pack fell out of her coat pocket......That was the most depressing thing ive ever seen. So much for her baptism date( which was that day HAH). Cigarettes are the worst thing in the world man, i hate them with a passion,. They ruin EVERYTHING! We have 4 investigators that would get baptized if they would just stop smoking.. One of our old investigators showed up though which was a huge surprise because some shiz went down with him and his wife.....anyways it was the primary thing in sacrament so thats why they were there. We went to Brendas for our first appointment ever and turns out her son has the swine flu and so we didnt go in because Bro Sprague kept making jokes like "Its alright im old its time for me to go" HAh he is the funniest man i love it. So we resceduled for tuesday. hopefully he is better so i dont get sick, and if i do im probably dead because theres not really anywhere to get shots around here. Oh well! jk mom...kinda
And about my eating...I eat everything. Its wierd im telling you, I had this wierd soup stuff that looked like something that you would feed pigs, And surprisingly it was pretty tasty. It wasnt that your cooking was bad mother. I was/am just stupid about things like that. I refuse to eat mashed potatos because i have been harrased so much about them.....okay not really. They are pretty good i guess. "Branching out" doesnt really help too much either...I now weigh 185 and im all depressed because of my love-handles, im not getting any lovin out here either!
Michigan is known for its fall season. The colors over here are awesome. If you are ever on a hill its pretty sweet, because you can see this endless forest of trees and all these different colors everywhere. People bragged about it all summer. Now that its here i havent really heard anyone talk about it. They are in denial i think. Michigan isn't so good, haha
I dont have my friends addresses with me right now. So i would just call up their parents, I could have it tomorrow for you but it might just be better to get it from them. I could even get them later today or something. Let me know!
So i have been reading the New testament and its awesome! I love it. Im learning so much. Im in Mark right now and i read Jesus the Christ while reading the Bible. It clears up a lot of things and makes it pretty awesome, like how Jesus calls James and John the "sons of thunder" <-- look it up its pretty cool. Im kinda of disobeying a rule. We are supposed to read PMG and the BoM the first year of our missions and then after that we can read whatever we want. I think its dumb, it just puts a damper on learning so i choose the higher law. <- its sounded good.... dont know exactly what it means, but i could make something up pretty easy, but i wont. Anyways the church is true, yadda yadda yadda. Love you guys! Peace be unto you.
Sounds like you had quite the hunt! Thats what i like to hear! Never back down! haha thats sweet that its working like a charm now. its a good truck! The pictures are dang funny, hah good times. I like how Brianne is wearing all my clothes in that last picture. Dang girl! I can just see you guys trying to get up that muddy road. If the truck breaks down you might as well be in the hardest spot to get out right? Remeber that time we went 70 down Smithfield canyon in your old truck? i thought for sure we were going to die, haha that was dang fun. Oh i forgot to mention in the letter to everyone. We have Elder Paul B Pieper coming down this week and we are going to have a zone conference with him and he will speak to us and stuff, so it should be really cool. Im excited. I guess last year everyone was arguing with the last general authority and using scriptures against what he was saying and stuff. So nothing really happened. haha dang know-it-all missionaries! So im excited for that it should be pretty sweet. Sorry you didnt get anything better luck next time and then next time again until im home. whoo! So Jordan says he wants to get into body-building and so i told him ill be his partner. So conjure up some potion for us and make us huge! anywho love you, and have fun at work! I miss work.....bye bye
