November 29, 2009

MY week has been good but to answer some of you inquiries...Ya ok so i figured somthing out you can send me for christmas, i need a couple whitew short sleeve shirts, some dumb missionaries took mine. and also if you can send a couple mesh garment bottoms that would be great. oh man i miss that huge christmas tree but our puny charlie brown tree is awesome i love it we set all up this week and it was great were working on a christmas card now but zero ideas now. have dad hop on and tell me all about the dallas trip, how was the new stadium and all that jazz. so guess what i actulally wrote down things to talk to you all about so yay you'll actually here some good stories form my week. ok so first off big news i have recently found out that i'm mildly lactose intollerant, so yeah i eat cereal most mornings and have milk and my poo hasn't been hard in like over a year so we bought heaps of soy milk and oat milk this week and since i'm drinking that instead, guess what... Hard Poo hahaha sorry you had to endure that story but you wanted me to share about my week. we had zone conference in Melbourne so as you heard from last week we were down there. it was good and it was president lee's b-day and we got him a pink tie and he swore he'd never wear pink but we got him to wear it, it was great. then we rode a noce long train ride back to our area it was fun, and when we got back we went to this part member families house and they had been having stange happenings with spirits and they wanted us to dedicate there home, so they asked me to do it, so i did and it was very spiritual and it is the dad who is not a member and after the blessing we asked him if he wanted the Priesthood to protect and bless his family and he was blown away he said no body has ever asked him. but he said he'd talk mit over with his wife but i think he will want to recieve that it was such a cool expirience. so my area has been very hard we havn't found any new investogators in the three weeks i've been here, which is weird cause i usually get a couple a week. but just satuday night we knock this one door we saw a couple days previous so we knock it and behind the door is a burmese family they invite us in we teach them and it was tough but i feel they understood, and we got four new investigators it was great, some success finally. that was great, so thing funny that happened was we were talking to this girl on her doorstep for like 45 mins and the whole time this song was playing over and over and over in the background. so i wanted to guess what it was all about so i guessed " is it the title menu for a dvd of the show "third rock from the sun"" and i weas exactly right, how stinkin random i was so proud of my self. anyways my week was good and after being here for three weeks they finally got me to introduce myself in sacrament, after i'd already met 90% of the poeple there. but i think thats about it i love you all thanks for the love. talk to you in 25 days.
