Dec 5 Email

I’m really excited to see Brandon!!! He is coming the 29th supposedly!!

Well this week has been pretty lame. Our appointment with both people fell through... but crazy story about one of them. her name is T and we went over and I guess her mom had to leave or something so she gave us her dad’s number so we could call and schedule something so we go to call her the next night and the number is already in our phone as a less active/part member guy. So we were confused because it wasn’t his address that she was at. So we went to the address where the ward directory said he was and the lady was really nice and told us it was a bad time but to come back this week. Then we found out that the T's (T's family) moved! So we got a return appointment with some strangers!! yay!! But yeah turns out we found out where the T's moved to and we talked to the dad and he is completely okay with us teaching his daughter and possibly his wife if she is interested and other 2 kids! That would be really awesome! We taught some pretty good lessons and set a baptismal date for the 24th! But it doesn’t look like it’s going to stick.

Some other crazy things from this week. I’ve been sick... bleh. I’ve had a cold since Thursday. I started to get it Tuesday but Wednesday it was gone. Then Thursday it was back and bad. So we didn’t get a whole lot of work done but there is a lady in our ward who has like a van with tons of medicine in it. I’m not sure her exact job but she said if we ever needed anything to call her so we did and she gave us some cold medicine and made me and my companion lots better! I feel pretty good now. Just a little clogged nose and a tiny cough but I’m tons better than before. The other reason we didn’t get much work done is because there was a very large windstorm Tuesday night! Like supposedly 80-100MPH winds. It was the worst there has been in 10 years! How crazy is that!? There were huge trees that were uprooted all over the place! The road outside our apartment was blocked by 2 huge trees! It’s almost been a week and there are still trees all over the place because the city workers have been so busy. So we did lots of service cutting up trees and all that good stuff. I got some pictures so I’ll send those possibly back with Brandon who can give them to Brian who can sometime get them to you! Yeah so lots of crazy stuff this week! Now that I’m feeling better we are going to teach lots of lessons this week and make up for last week! Oh so we have also been decorating our apartment for Christmas! Using stuff we bought at the dollar store such as stockings that we hung over our fireplace that we have been using! It’s been super awesome! And we are all pitching in to get a fake tree! It’s going to be awesome!

Transfers are going to be January 3rd and I could leave then just so you know! Well I love you all so much and hope you have a great week!!
