March 11, 2013

I am speechless.... haha, That is exciting! Real clever idea! I am so happy for him, it's weird to think that he is going to get married... When I read that I'm going to have a new sister-in-law, I just smiled from ear to ear! I wish I had news that is as great as that, so my email isn't boring, but I don't... Ashton takes the cake on this one! I love the pictures too, her look is priceless. I guess I'll get to know her a lot more when I get home, I know they will visit after they move to Minnesota. But just reading the beginning of her blog tells me she is an exciting person. (deep breath) My little Ashton is all grown up now.... haha, Jk.
Well I'll give you some news, we can email family, friends, recent converts, and priesthood leaders. We also got another hour to write and email. About the work, everything is coming together now. A family we haven't been able to teach in a while is back taking lessons again. We have a baptism this saturday, if all goes well. We have three new, good investigators! And a couple funny stories!
To start out, our gator has a mean dog named Sadie. She just had puppies and is very protective, she is also a chain dog. When she is outside, she is real mean. After talking to a lady, we started walking toward our gator's mobile home. I told Elder Harrer that I saw Muriah, the owner, call sadie a few times and didn't see her go in. He thought the opposite, but was still cautious. He slowly walked around the vehicles keeping an eye out for the devil dog. By the way, this dog is mostly black, and it was night time. He walked and got about ten feet from their truck and a series of wild barks came from the side of it. I saw a flash of black run into Elder Harrer, and he stumbled back as he swung his new scripture case toward the dog. Needless to say he died....
So that is my cool story! Jk, the dog bit his case and put five holes in it. He hurried back and the dog stayed in it's protective circle. By the way the dog is super nice when it is inside.
But this same family, and also another family we are working with attempted to come to stake conference, but ended up going to the wrong building. They went to one that we sold to a baptist church, and they walked in, sat down and then ended up leaving as soon as they found that it wasn't the right church! Real funny people! But the work is going good, and all is well!
Love all y'all! Have a great week!
