A Wrestling match...well almost!

Hey family/Friends,
This week was good, normal work as far as finding goes, a couple of sweet new investigators... like Beverly she is an older woman who has never seen the missionaries before. I was shoked everyone knows and she is cool we'll see her this Thursday, oh hahaha so Iwent on exchanges with Elder Gardner who is an Aussie and by the way mom he will be living in our house after the mission, anyways we were in his area and we went to see this kid named Matt and he has down syndrome and he is so funny. He is like 250 pounds and only five feet tall just a ball and he also loooooves wreslting. so after our lesson with him Elder gardner tells Matt that I (Elder Ballard) would love to wrestle him, at first Matt refuses cause he says i'll rip him apart, but then he builds courage and the next thing I know matt's shirt is off and he is hitting his chest with his fist like a stinkin gorilla, and he is ready to pounch, so fearing injury from excess weight on my shoulder I negotiate my way out of being smashed under a butterball turkey. So after surving that how we go and get a deep fried mars bar which was delicious but not as good as a deep fried twinkie or oreo. Oh so when you trian a new missionary you are considered his dad so Elder Tongsumrith is my dad, and the way it goes is nobody can have a daughter cause nobody can train sister missionaries.... oh but we did I love telling everybody I have a daughter. Ya some girl in Glenhoun we went out a full missionary helping and training her it went great she'll be serving in Sydney though. Oh and funniest thing I heard this week was "Whats a Chair lift?" ahahahaha That's all. Love you peace.
