Heyo, all is well, we are finally getting some rain after about a month. That is pretty awesome that y'all are getting lots of snow. That power line is a dangerous thing, I think they should replace the whole thing, isn't that the third time it blew? Weather has been hot and cold, hot and cold. It's real weird, and freezing cold, not cool. The big thing everyone was going to down here was the Peanut Festival. It is HUGE. Every living soul in the South knows about it, except maybe the tourists... We were unable to go because it was out of our area. Our ward had an elephant ear booth, it's what the food is called. I heard they are pretty good!
We have super nice ward members, in fact we are in a member's home right now emailing! I am also sitting next to a HAM radio and a shotgun, most likely loaded, with about 15 extra shells on the strap! I love the South. We went to a member's home and rode a gyroscope, I got sweet picts of that, and fed some of his giant amor carp. It's pretty fun out here, but we have been having some success. Our two investigators are really progressing. They both have BCD's set and both are doing well. One is going to be baptized after Christmas and another on the first, but might be changed. This girl who might be baptised is going through a rough time with her family. She lives by herself, and goes to the Pentecostal church. Her family told her that if she joins that she will be disowned... What she told us really impressed me. She wasn't worried about what we believed, but why her family was so against it. I know that she has felt the Holy Ghost, she has even told us her super spiritual experiences. The only solution that I see where everything will work out is if we meet her parents with some members they know and talk with them. She is going to be a strong member and that's why she is going through this many trials. She told us of a dream she had once, where she was taken to a high mountain and was shown all the evil works that Satan was showing forth, and she was told she needs to warn the people of the evil. I know she is going to be one heck of a missionary!
We are almost done fixing up the ghetto home we live in, and it's looking pretty nice. There isn't much else that is new. We did hear a little about the Obama situation. We just barely heard that 20 states are signing petitions to detach from the union, I guess the South is rising again! haha... The members have a good attitude, we had a lesson recently about a scripture. "Be still and know that I am God." It's too true, all these things happen for a reason, God is in control, so there is nothing to worry about. We are both a little excited for the coming of Jesus Christ. My companion said talking about the election, hey, it's four more years closer to the second coming! He's funny.
I will probably be going to UVU, but I'm still a little uncertain. But if I decide to change, I will just have to work harder to get more money right? :)
Thanks for the Email, and I'm sorry to hear about Jameson's car, it seems that he is the only one who is getting things stolen from! It's because he's such a great person that he needs more trials! Speaking of backpacks, I am really grateful for the one he gave me, it works perfectly!
LOVE you all and I will talk to y'all next time!
