8.8.11

Hey Mommy!!

Talking you into stuff was a lot easier than talking these people into baptism...it was super crazy. I said somethings that i wouldn't normally say to anyone cause they are super blunt and kinda rude. For example I had to tell Carla that if she didn´t let her daughter be baptized all the sins of her daughter were going to fall over her head in the day of judgment. Which is true but it seems very mean. But President Torgan always says..."its time to love the truth, If the truth is very hard to take it is because you aren't doing it." It only sounds mean if it is against the comfortable way of being. But it never was comfortable for Christ to suffer for us. So she sucked it up and we were able to have a GREAT baptism and Christiana received the Holy Ghost yesterday and it was super awesome!

I got the package with the socks and it came just in time cause i was down to very few socks!!

Wow that is super weird that Brynn is that old and that Ry has his learners permit..that is crazy.?? I am proud of him for golfing...he is going to kick my butt when I get home...but that is okay. Tell the whole AZ crew that i say hi! Wow, Brittany is going to be married...weird! How is Tiffany? That is super crazy! I didn't get an invitation....where did she mail it to? It is super weird how everyone is getting married...i am not old enough to have all my friends be married....super weird!

Way to go mommy... I am proud of you for reading the Book of Mormon in three weeks. It is super crazy how much power that book brings into our lives!

Thanks for everything mommy!! I love you tons!!!

Daddio!!!

It was a super crazy story....Satan was trying to do everything he could to make it so we didn´t get her baptized. Her mom is doing really well she is at church every Sunday at least for the first hour...sometimes she has to leave after that cause her grandmother is super crazy and super catholic...she hates the church...sad day...but we are working with her and she is progressing really well she just needs to wait a little bit longer. I got one package..thank you it was great!!

After taking this long to draw this tag you better not settle with some little bull. I wanna come home to a MONSTER on the wall!! haha sounds like you better start preparing for the hunt...start hiking up to squaw peak. When i come back i have a friend here from american fork that wants to take me up to do an archery elk up like that up american fork canyon somewhere...i guess also the spike tag turns to a bull if you cross over this one ridge or something...he was trying to explain in greenie portuguese and it didn´t make a lot of sense but its all planned out!

So as for the new investigators...well some of them are progressing but the majority are at the super awesome holidays of the month of august...almost the whole country goes on vacation and takes holidays...it is super duper wierd! Haha moms side of the family is super funny...i think they might have some Portuguese blood in them...they all speak at the same time and have to talk super loud. It is super crazy! They are super funny i miss them...mom was so kind to remind me this week that i only have 10 more fast sundays...super weird! The pdays up here are super weird...we are doing a lot of shopping and visiting crazy old churches and castles...it is super pretty up here...everything is green!

Thanks for everything dad!! I love you lots!!
