Sept 11, 2017

I'm not sure if this is upside down on purpose or if they just don't know how to use their camera?  :/

Well this week I got a new comp. He is Elder Hernandez from Mexico... To be honest Mexicans are hard to get along with... They think they are better than every other latin out here. But whatever. We are working really hard. We have a teenager that should be getting baptized in a few weeks he is super cool. He hasn't been to a single church in his life. But we are working with him so he can be baptized. Then we are also trying to have cool activities and everything but not many people want to show up. We will have to see how this change goes. The pic was on the bus with an Elder that was in my 1st district.

Peach days weekend. What a joke!  I came to town in Friday morning about 10 to get gas to go to Ogden and pick up grandma at Kenworth and there were people already going to the booths in the center of town. The post office was all sequestered off on Wednesday. It's nuts!  There were people putting out blankets and chairs on Thursday morning when Carson went to school at 730am. How do people have time to sit there all day watching their stuff?  It can't be left unattended until 3pm. I just don't get the draw to it all.
Last week was pretty uneventful for the most part. Carson played in Pocatello on Thursday they won 49-6. It was kind of a sad game. Our kids looked like superstars but they didn't necessarily play that great. 😕
Friday I went to help sell programs at the first home game. A bunch of the freshman boys came too and they sold quite a few. Even though it was out of their comfort zone. I figure they should have some ownership in their fundraising. It's not the parents responsibility to do everything.
Saturday we made salsa and went to Justin Adams wedding reception.
Sunday was just the normal.
Hopefully things are going well. Let us know what's new.
Love you
Mom

Well, this week this week we had changes, I got a new companion, he's from Mexico his name is Elder Hernandez.  He's pretty cool.  He's alright, he's got a year working hard.  We're getting it done here.  I'm finally senior companion, but it doesn't matter.  Last week, it was really cool because we found 23 new people to teach and that's always been a difficulty with me here.  We're doing good.  Like I really don't have much to say, this really doesn't have much battery left.  I gotta get some new ones, but we are working hard trying to get some people to get ready to get baptized.  That's pretty much what we did this week,  We just had changes and I was just showing him the area, visiting a few people, looking for new people.  So there you go.  That was our week.  Love you.
