Hello again...

So...

6 months this week eh???.... its pretty crazy how fast time flies...

I'm sorry to hear about Arnold and Ken... But as we know, they're in a
better place now, and prolly have a really good idea of what I (and all
the other missionaries around the world) am doing by now.. 

This week was pretty uneventful... Just a lot of tracting and sweating,
as it was our walk week and we didn't have a car... blech... two showers
a day... I never thought I'd actually be required to do that... One day,
after coming home that night, I felt like I had just been in a mosh
pit!! I was just as exhausted and just as sweaty, except this time it
was all MY sweat!!! UGH!!!! But this week so far is treating us
nicely... It's only been 85 degrees!! haha!!

I did find out that a whole family I taught back in Cabot got baptized
though!!! Crazy!!!! The dad looked be square in the eye and told me he
didn't wanna learn anymore, because he just joined a baptist church...
now look!!! He's baptized and received the priesthood!!! RANDOM!!! But
so wonderful!!!!!

Also... Randi and Monie sent me a birthday package... my favorite item
that was sent.... FISHNET STOCKINGS!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good thing i cant wear them
anywhere!!!!!!!!!! haha!!! but I laughed way hard and pretty much those
and the Canada socks made my day. well... the whole thing did, but i
laughed a lot and that's the point.. haha...

And in the spirit that Randi is in Ecuador right now... I was reading
one of the Ensigns... i think it's the one made for new converts... but
it listed the amount of members in the top 10 countries.. #10 most
members in a country is Ecuador with almost 171000 members... #9 most
members are in Canada!!! haha!! There's about 172000 there!!! Who
knew!!! Ecuador and Canada are super close in the number of members that
live there!! I thought that was cool...

Louise is still a go for baptism on July 12. She's really excited and a
bunch of her family is flying in from Vegas to see it. She's so great
and she's ALREADY doing missionary work!!! We tracted the street she
lives on a couple days ago and told her who she needs to talk to.
haha... she's already made plans to have a couple neighbors over for
dinner one day... hahahaha... I love that woman... Her husband is still
Agnostic, but his heart is slowly but surely softening, and he comes to
every church function Louise goes to as long as he isn't working.
haha... Pretty much its awesome..

Anyways... That's about all... Next week is transfers so the next time
you hear from me, I'll be a Mommy!!! haha... That means I'm a trainer.
haha. I emailed Sis Blake and told her she's going to be a grandma next
week... hahahaha.... Maybe that's only funny to missionaries.... uhhh...
awkward.... ummmm... yeah... LOVE YOU!!!!! MISS YOU!!!! THE CHURCH IS
TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
