Hello!!

Well I'm glad Mom and Dad made it back from Quebec safely. I assure you
that the humidity you had there is NOTHING compared to what we have to
deal with here... It's rediculous..... But it's even more motivation to
try even harder to get into someone's door!! haha!! okay... I actually
wrote down a bunch of stuff i need to write about. go me!

1. We had Stake Conference this weekend. It was amazing, Bishop
McMullin, who is a member of the Presiding Bishopric came to speak to
us. He is such a spiritual man, and very inspirational and has a very
dry sense of humor. but I loved it. He asked all of the investigators
the missionaries are teaching to come for a meeting before the Sunday
session, and he met them all and gave them this awesome short little
lesson.. Louise got to come, and she loved it. She's so set for baptism.
The date is going to be on July 12, because it's her grandson's
birthday. He's the one on a mission. So she wants to be baptized on that
day because she remembers holding her grandson when he was minutes old,
so she only felt it was appropriate to have her own spiritual rebirth on
that day. He's the one who started this whole thing anyways!! WOOT!!!

2. Yesterday we were tracting and Sis Rothe saw a lizard and tried to
catch it, which was hilarious in itself, but when she actually did catch
it, she only got it's tail, so then the lizard detached itself from the
tail, so she was left there screaming because she was holding a
twitching lizard tail.... it was disgusting... but hilarious too..
haha...

3. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you Dad...
You're pretty much amazing, and thank you for all you do for me...
because it's a lot... I've honestly got the best Dad ever, and I'm
willing to fight anyone on that statement. haha.. Also... Sis Rothe says
you're really awesome too. She likes the picture of the mountains that
you sent, and that you wrote on the postcard you sent that you used my
"cool Dell light up pen". She liked the randomness and reached the
conclusion that she likes you a lot too. haha...

4. I dont remember if i mentioned to you how excited i was that you sent
me a scan of my Institute Grad diploma thinger... I was sooo happy to
see that... I LOVE INSTITUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5. We've also been living off of freezies... our freezer is full of
them. But I wanted to mention to Mom, that I cant eat the purple ones
because even though I'm accross the continent, I still have this idea
that the smell of anything I eat that's grape is gonna make you sick...
haha...

6. Also... I broke down and bought nail polish.. If i cant have it on my
hands, I can at least have it on my toes. So my toes look cute and are
this pretty dark purple color. haha.. I dunno why i felt like i needed
to tell you that, but i wrote it down, so i guess i figured it was
important at the time.

7. Last thing... Clarke..... What's Wells Fargo???......

So pretty much that's been my week. Pretty random, but awesome too. Its
still warming up and we hit our first 100 degree weather day....
blech.... The things i do for the Lord... I know that what we teach is
true, so as a result... The Church is still true!!!!

Love y'all!!!
