Hello Again!

The baptism went super good! Nothing went wrong and it was very spiritual. Probably the worst thing that happened was a boring talk, but that's it. Elder T and I sang the baptism song and it went super well. He was nervous, but afterwards felt great. It's great to see him get baptized, a couple of months ago, I didn't think that I would've been able to see it happen. The Lord is definitely blessing our area! We set 4 BCD's this past week, and the family who we set them for came to the baptism. Everything is working out great. Now I know that something difficult is going to happen soon, something always does! I took many pictures, I'll send them when I send the next card, most likely in two weeks, when transfers happen. The Pres said he is switching companions in a lot of areas so I think that ours will be changed as well. I just hope that I'm not the one leaving, because we set the BCDs for a week after transfers.

That is funny that the swat team came in for bottle bombs, it makes the situation seem so much more serious than it actually was. I know that the bottle bombs are dangerous too, but it just seems funny. That would be scary not knowing what's going on, but I'm glad everyone is safe! I also heard that Bountiful received lots of money for remodeling or something. That's awesome that you are having all these adventures! Utah state doesn't sound too bad, but I'll worry about it later on! :)

So, about Ashton, does he have a fiance, or Carson, and who is it? That's exciting that somebody is getting married! And Ashton is a wuss, jk, he's a smart man for wimping out! :) (Ashton went with his friend and his friend's fiance while they skydived.....Ashton didn't skydive, thank goodness:) Naw, I know it's super expensive to do that stuff. He's awesome for waiting for Carson, I think it will be fun to see them coming down too!

I believe Jameson is cheating for Brook, but that's all I'll say! :) (I told Parker that Jameson goes out to let Brook shave his face and neck every other day at SLCC so that she can count those shaves in her quota to graduate!!) I bet everyone is getting haircuts from her too right? If you find a friend that has talents, you make sure they use them! It says so in the scriptures. :) By the way, Elder Tialino and I gave a talk with our ward mission leader yesterday, it was great. My talk was about the importance of the scriptures that's why it reminded me of it. We also gave a little talk in Primary, and we learned we need to teach Seminary on Wed, and Thur, at seven in the morning! Lots are happening!

Hearing Coree's new profession, (security dispatcher at the new City Creek Mall) it reminds me of somebody in our ward. He works for the post office, and at the family dollar, and sometimes doesn't get home 'til 5 in the morning. What's amazing is that he's ALWAYS at church! He is very impressive. So Coree can't use that excuse! :) Sorry Coree!!

Love you all!

Elder Smith

ps, tell dad thanks for the email, that I will study those verses, and that I'm not a big fan of spaghetti....:)
