blender

May 25, 2009

Hey family and friends,

So this week went by well. We worked hard and some sort of success. We had one baptism this week the son of the lady that got baptized last Sunday (Adrian) and they both got confirmed on Sunday. It was good and they are progressing. We also went to a family home evening with a cool family in our ward with them. They and we had fun and we ate pizza after. (The member guy sells pizzas from his house).

But the rest of the week was kind of lame. We worked hard and me and my comp get along well but we didnt have much success. A lot of the lessons fell through and we didnt have any success in the church. We found a cool lady and her daughter but they left on vacations until Tuesday. Wel will see if they keep progressing or if they fall through too. This week was pretty hard but im sure that the Lord will help us out this week and will bless us with a really cool family.

So last week me and my comp were thinking that it would be pretty cool if we had a blender. So we decided to ask, really sly-like, all of the members that we ate with where we could get a blender real cheep. So last Sunday i asked this sister and she said hey i got 3 take one for free. SCORE. That was completly our plan, get one for free. So this week i have had liquados (milk, chocolate, banana) every day. Its way fast and fills you up good.

So when Mom asked me if it was rainy season and i said “yea, but it hasnt rained much” i think i jinxed us. It has rained 5 days a week for the last 2 weeks. Lame. But the good thinbg is that its not cold.

Tihs week we had interviews and it was cool. I didnt really get any hints about if i will stayt or go this change. But Pres Doxey told me that me and my comp are like the zone leaders of our district. And that they are finding more success when they have two leadership-kind missionareies together one as the district leader and both as an example to the district. So i dont know if he was hinting at anything there or if it just means that we need to be a good example to the district. Ill take it that way for now.

I hope you are all doing good. Love ya lots.
