A day at the Zoo! (June 21, 2009)
G'day Family.
This week was good. Last week for P-day we went to a zoo park thing and I got to play with so many animals! I got to play with Deer, Emus, Kangaroos, Albino wallabies, Koalas, Wombats, Tazzy devils and I e
ven got kissed by a Camel... ok mybae I did the kissing, I got heaps of pictures i'll send them soon. Oh and also during lunch one day this week we had some extra time and we had the awesome idea to set up a trap for a Wallaby. The trap is a wheely Bin (trash can) tipped over with an excersise band tied to the lid and the fence. Then we put apples in the bin and fashion a trigger that if the animal puts any weight on the trigger the top snaps tightly shut. It is the best stinkin trap ever but no success yet. There is a picture attatched to the email of the trap. You'll definately know when we catch one. We already picked his name. It's gonna be called dishes so we can say "do the dishes"
as code to say feed the Wallaby. But on the more spiritual aspect of things we found a lot of new investogators this week. One just invited us off the street and we taught the first vision and the lady said I believe that's true. So excited! We see these people some time this week. Anyays love you all take care.

"I'll call the cops!" (June 8, 2009)
G'day Family,
This week was pretty good. We got a lot of work done but it's still weird being senior Companion I don't like having to do all the work, but some funny stuff happened to us this week. The mo
st recent story.... so you know what tracting is (door knocking) well it gets dark at like 4:30 here so we were doing some night tracting and we knock this door and then they weren't interested then we go to the next one and as we were walking to the next house I see this man just standing there holding somthing, so I decide to go and talk to him. So I throw my hand into a high wave and say "G'day Cobbah how you going?", and then he just screams "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING OUT HERE AT THIS TIME OF NIGHT?!!!" I respond "sir it's 6:35" then he says "GET IN YOUR CAR AND LEAVE, YOUR NOT EVEN ALOUD TO BE DOING THIS." "Actually fella we will not leave cause we are aloud to do this". "YOU LEAVE OR I'LL CALL THE POLICE!!" "You do that please i'd love to have a chin wag with them", then he just waddles up to his house which turns out we never even knocked his door. So why was he so mad, this whole time I was being polite but at the same time kinda rude. Then as he waddled off I said "have a good night" and he flipped me off haha. And as far as i'm concerned no police came. It was funny. The work and numbers are about the same but we haven't got any new investigators in so long. oh well. We're already half way through this tranfer freakin nuts and my six month is just around the corner wow, and Mike has been out a year what the heck it goes too fast I feel I haven't done enough. But all I can do is work my tail off. And mom I didn't forget about you I just only had a half hour yesterday cause the lame queens birthday so we get more time today. ok tell Shelby I miss her and the sunshine and the warmth and all of you. I love you all. bye.

Russel Falls, slow work, "King of Tazzy!" (May 31, 2009)
Hey Family,
So Elder Tongsumrith is gone. Wahoo my new comp is as you know Elder Lewis he is awesome I have had more fun with him in the past week than I
have had in my whole mission. We just have a great time together but he doesn't like to work so I gotta shape him up and make him realize that life is so much better when your exactly obedient and work hard. We went to Russel Falls you should look it up it's such an awesome place. Oh work got all messed up and so we slowed way down in teaching our people and now since i'm senior companion and all the responsibility is on me. But next week the work will be great only one investagator came we planned on five so many people are gonna get my dissappointed look this week. Other than that we have been challenged to set one Baptismal date this week so we'll see how this goes. Other than that the work is great im still in Tazzy and it seems to be so for the next three months. It's weird to think i'm one of the oldest people in Tazzy now there is nobody that has been down in Tazzy longer than me so people look to me for the way things work down here. haha kinda cool. I'll soon take the throne as the king of Tazzy. Well family love you all and be safe and take care.

Hey Family,
Man that dinner sounds so good to me, but you know Martgrete ya she gets up in fast and testimony meeting and yells at the ward for not feeding us hahahah I love it out of a whole month we only go about five days without eating. We eat a lot of meat and viggitables the dinners are always so good but when we don't get fed I found somthing like topramen but it makes top ramen taste like donkey dookie. It's called indo mie brand Mi Goreng auhhhh so good. Man I can't wait for you to know what your having Christy it's about time this family has a girl. If you don't no worries cause me and Jos will have all the girls. Man i'm jelaous of you all swimmin I wanna go so bad. There is snow up on the mountains here and were going to it today but its not that cold here. Alls i gotta say is GOOOOOO NuGGGGGs, ya this week was the best my comp and I did somthing nobody has done in a really long time. So we have stats and there are about twelve different catagories like lessons taught, referals recieved, baptismal date, people baptised, people confermed and so on and so the thing that nobody can do is get all of the catagories full but this week we did and it was awesome . So this week we baptised Sky woot woot my first one I did it and it was so exciting. The ward loves her and also we had investigators come which was awesome. Also this week my rib doesn't hurt so bad I can sorta sleep now. But still kills to do anyhting in the morning. Also one of our less actives went to hospital for stints and alchohol poisoning. We got to lay the smack down on him we'll shape him up. Tranfers are next week so pray for me leaving or change of companions cause oh man is work hard with my comp but I love Tasmania. Anyways family, work is great and there is snow up Mt Wellington so i'm going to play in it today. I'll send pics of the Baptism... Hopefully love you all.

But we'll get him. Then Valerire came with Maxuell Cave she is a non-member and he is less-active she enjoyed it but she'll be a while till baptism. She actually cried when she heard one of us will be leaving for tranfers cause transfers were this Monday but fortune didn't turn my way cause i'm still in Glenorhcy, but thats fine the only downer is i'm still with my comp, i'm mean we shouldn't bad talk them to anyone but man 4 1/2 months with him is almost too much ugh!!! No worries all is well i'll endure righteously to the end hahaha. Well not much work continues, we taught a Colombian lady who I wanted to just teach her in spanish so bad man I said a couple words to her in her native tongue which is the best language ever. Other than that nothing new, except the mission president and his wife said there is gonna be a mission reuinion in April 2011 so I volenteered our house haha, mom thats why I need you to send pictues of the whole house so I can show these people, Elder Gardner is from Sydney and he says he's livng there after the mish so prepare him a room.

A nut from a nut! And a baptismal date! (Monday, March 30, 2009)
Family,
ok so wow this week was really eventfull Ihope I can get it all in... so I first got Shannon's package it was awesome I love the Cereal. Also I got the tape I already sent you guys back my response you'll get that probably tomorrow. I also got all Jordan's email and they made me so jeleaous but it's fine i'm haveing some pretty sweet/strange expiriences. I also realized from his emails i'm not sharing enough with ya'll but this one will be better. Thanks mom for getting those addresses sorry but I already had them cause I have the best girlfriend in the world, but no worries I didn't have Scott's so thank you so much. First off hahahaha super funny expirience. I promise no missionary will ever expirience anything like this hahaha. Ok so you guys remember that guy who looked up the chapel in the phone book and called and asked for the missionaries to come and teach him. Well his name is Michael Coneley and so I call the number back and ask for Michael Coneley, they say "Well there is no Michael Coneley but there is a Micheal Hello and he usually goes by that name, do you want to speak to him?" I say ya sure. So they give me his number to reach him and just before I hang up they ask " Do you know where you are calling?" I say no, then they say "This is Melbrook Rise Center, this is a mental institution and Micheal is a patient" I was all "uh... hahaha ok, Bye" Then I call this Michael character he answers and I comfirm that he was the one who called us, he said he was and then asked me "Can we go out?" and not really understaniding him I say Sure. But it wasn't until I hung up till I figured what he meant. I was all "ahh crap he probably thinks we are gonna take him out into the real world!" hahaha oh well, so the next day we drive to where he is at and go in. We talk to a nurse about him and she says were lucky cause he is one of the not very agressive patients hahaha oh boy, do I feel lucky. She also said he has been calling every church in the phone book asking for every church to come teach him. haha ok whatever send him in. And in walks Michael Hello. wearing three pairs of trowsers, two shirts and a suit coat that is two sizes too small and he is half bald with the classic crazy man hair. haha he sits and he asks me "Hows the beaches in utah?" haha no beaches in Utah bud. Then he asks "How many...How many Keys will it take to get into your church?" I said 436 to mess with him hahaha. Then we had a fairly normal conversation and then gave him a Book of Mormon. Then he goes on about some eagle God, and finally we ask if we could say a prayer before we left and I was just about to ask if I could offer it when he just started to pray and this is his prayer to the best of my knowledge "Heavenly father... please bless this food (right there i lost it and busted up laughing) thanks for the grass and the sun _...Some other stuf..._ Holy holy holy holy holy amen" hahahaha what?? Then he stands up infront of me and starts rifeling through his pockets and says "I have somthing for you" oh boy I can't wait to see what is it, he looks through all 2 million pockets and pulls something out hands it to me and says "a nut" hahaha it was a peach pit, and then he turned to my comp and says I don't have anything for you... then we leave and when we get to the parking lot I burst into laughter and say "I got a nut from a nut!" hahaha funniest thing ever! Then one of our members used to know him once upon a time. He drove taxi's with him and I guess he is an amazing artist, so we'll go back to visit. But next story is we went on exchanges I was with Elder Brayden Lewis and we decide to go tract down by the beach so we walk outside and just start walking we see water and just start walking towards it. We decide to cut throught the bush I swear we walked to Africa cause it looked exaclty like the Sarenghetti plains, and the funniest part as we were walking just over the hill were we couldn't see was a bunch of kids at recess banging on drums haha I seriously was africa haha then we get to the water and walk along a road for ten kilometers (about 6-7 miles) and we realize its the wrong way and have to go bcak worst day ever, why would they put two newbies together. hahah anyways also most exciting thing about this week is WE GOT A BAPTISMAL DATE WOOO!!!! Awesome guy his name is Lee we gave him a book of mormon and came back in three days he was already in Omni this guy is golden commited to Bap. on first lesson I can't wait he is awesome only problem is he smokes but who doesn't here. Oh ok assignment read D&C 75:19-21, thats made me very happy cause all the rejection we get so just check it out, hahaha sister Brynes is awesome she taught me all the Aussie slang so I wouldn't be stabbed haha you gotta meet the other ones they are awesome and also a sister from Tazzy will be reporting soon to that mission. Ok so I know how to make the soup I already made it but its ok and it was delicious like always i've made it like 6 times. Oh I can't wait for the Hulmes letters. ok thats about it I love you all, thanks for the support!
