G'dai Family,

This Week was a Good one, pretty melo for the crazy stories but we did a who heap of work this week. Well first off I got to see the last four mintues of the Super Bowl, and can I Say Booooooring what a lame and not fun super bowl, Sorry dad your Colts Lost, maybe you should stick with the 49ers where your guarrenteed for disappointment every year. hahaha Then on tuesday We get a Call from Pai (Pah-ee) he is a Blind member in our ward we love him, his wife is also blind and they are amazing, but anyways he calls me and says "Hey Melvin (as in Melvin J. Ballard) I found someone for you to teach, his name is Danial and he wants to be Baptized" I was so excited, we met Daniel on friday he is sweet as. we set a date for march 6th (his birthday) and he says he wants to be a missionary so bad, he can't wait his goal is in a years he'll leave on his mission how awesome is that. awesome kids. Oh so on thurday we had planned to ride the trains all day and talked to people and so we go and all the trains are shut down for the day, Whaaaat! We were dumbstruck, we honeslty had no clue what to do, the trains we our fail safe but they were not running so we went into shut down mode and curled up in a chair and did paper work all day long. Also yesterday we were able to see Priyanker get Confirmed at Sacrament meeting that was amazing, this young man it great. he also got a brand new Quad (scriptures) he's so excited, I hope we can help him along his way learnign the Gospel. man after writing this email my week seems empty. We had Zone conference that was good our mission are being combined in july which is very exciting. not sure if i told you that. Last thing, It's was Jocelyn's Birthday on the 11th make sure you wish her a happy birthday, if you havn't. Love you all thanks for the letters i got this week, take care,
