.....

Alright... Sooo....

I'm STILL in Maumelle!!! I'm actually pretty surprised. I gues the new Mission President made some major changes and somehow we avoided being a part of it. I guess they're whitewashing 9 new areas, and there's TONS of missionaries going from Arkansas to Tennessee and TONS coming from Tennessee to Arkansas. It's pretty intense. But here I remain untouched with Sister Davis. 

Pretty much though... Nothing really exciting is happening lately... Same old same old I guess. We are able to do a lot more tracting though. The weather has cooled down significantly, because it's been rainy for the past couple days, so that was nice. Instead of it being 100, it got down to 70!!! It was amazing!!! But today its sunny again, and thankfully no longer 100 degrees... WHEW!!!! I'm glad I only  have to deal with ONE summer. The Lord definitely had this all figured out and it's working out perfectly for me. Yesterday we found a new investigator though. She told us that she usually turns the missionaries away, but for some reason today she felt like she needed to let us in, so we shared the first lesson with her and it was awesome. We're gonna go see her again next week. She never really told us what it was that made her want to talk to us though. I guess we had shining countenances or something.. haha...

Louise is going on vacation for two weeks, so it's gonna be weird not having her around. She's become such a huge part of our life!! haha!! Get this!! She has this incredible desire to go to the temple, and she has no idea why. That's what she says that she's always thinking about. So hopefully she'll be able to go to Memphis shortly after coming home, and go to the temple to do baptisms... Maybe we might even be able to go with her!!! that would be incredible... She even ordered her own "preparing for the temple" pamphlet. haha. She's all gung ho about it. It's really awesome. Larry is still coming along.. Slowly... But we're trying to be patient with him. I think Louise is getting a little fed up though. She wants desprately to be sealed to him, so the longer it takes the less patient she gets. haha... He'll get there though. 

I'm glad Ian had fun at EFY. Every day last week I was trying to remember what he was gonna be doing. But I definitely thought of him a lot on Thursday, which is the Testimony day, and I remembered last year when he called me and pretty much bore his testimony to me after the day's events. That was pretty special... 

Now... What's this about this "good news" that Clarke and Cecilia have for me??... Seriously Dad... Not cool to leave me hangin like that... I dont do well with teasers..... Is Clarke gonna be a baby-daddy or something??.... I thought the agreement was to WAIT UNTIL I WAS HOME!!!!!.........

Anywho...

Sounds like Mom and Dad are doing well on their northern adventure to the Yukon and area... Such a random place to vacation in, but whatever floats their boat I guess... haha..

Remember... The Church is true!!! and I love y'all!! WOOT!!!
