Good Conference

9-27-10 Ya that’s what I’ve heard you’re always sick. That stinks. I’ve been a little sick too but I’m over it I think. Sounds like you went to a good hockey game and that you’re gunna start liking it. haha Football’s better:) That’s good that the Primary had a sweet program. It sounds like you’re way busier than in Moses Lake. Why’s that? Jk That’s good that Miles spends a lot of time with the elders. Does he teach people with them and all that stuff? Is he liking work? It sounds like he’s way busy these days and I’m sure he’ll have a blast in Indy. Tell him to say hi for the cousins and give them a hug for me, aight? It’s so weird that you’re all almost out of the 4 oldest – it’s weird. Cameron sounds like he’s doing awesome. He’s an awesome missionary. Well things are going good here. We had a baptismal interview for Jacob and he’s so ready. It’s way legit. He said an awesome prayer - it was really touching to hear a prayer like that come from a non-member:) And our other investigators are doing aight. How’s school going for you? Well sounds like yall are doing good. Hope you have a great week mom. Luv ya. Any ?'s you wanna ask or anything so I can write more cuz idk what else to talk to u about. Well in the B of M I’ve been reading Alma and those missionaries are perfect examples - you should have Miles read those stories and link them to topics in PMG - they’re way helpful. well luv ya mom

10-04-10 Ya it’s pretty crazy. It’s in the 60s here so it’s a bit chilly haha. But I like it since it’s been such a bad summer here, so I’m glad no more humidity. Ya that stinks that yall are still a bit sick, but hopefully yall get better soon. That’s good that you picked up another class. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. How is it going so far? Why don’t yall have set schedules or anything like that? That’s good that yall finally had the yard sale - I heard about that thing like a month ago haha jk. Ya that was pretty sweet (getting a temple in Indy) That’s were me and O’Laughlin were born. Ya conference was really good, even though I accidently feel asleep a few times - woops haha - dark room watching something isn’t a good combo for me and never has been haha. Priesthood session was really good. I learned a lot from the speakers - really good talks. Sounds like yall had a fun weekend with the Hansens and kids. Those are funny movies haha. (Take a Chance, Mobsters and Mormons) So when does Miles get home from Indy? Well that stinks for Miles that the elders got transferred. Why did they both leave at the same time? Who are the new elders? Ya I got the message from Sis Miller. She’s a really good lady and will do anything for us. Wow that’s pretty sweet that Chiawana is undefeated. Sounds like they’re doing really good. Did they bet Moses Lake? Do you know how Moses is doing? Well that’s sweet that yall aer the temple prep teachers. I’s probably gunna be a small class all the time since most members already go to the temple but how much do I know haha. At the 1st session of conference we met a lady that’s being taught by the High Point elders but she lives in our area. She gets taught at work and her house is crazy –that’s what she told us but she said she’s gunna get baptized soon. And a member also at that session told us he wants his 11 yr old grandson to be baptized and we have another little girl gunna get baptized soon, hopefully. So the work is going pretty well. Well no funny stories haha. The office is still getting Elder Goodrich and I mixed up haha. They call us to know who it’s for haha. Well were gunna go to the zoo today - biggest zoo in the Americas and I’ll take a bunch of pics, aight? It should be fun I guess but I’d rather play bball but I have to go sometime, so our district is gunna go. I’ve been reading a book called "About the Three Nephites". It’s a really good book - really good spiritual stories. I told dad to see if he can find it. I’ve also been reading in Alma about the missionaries in there and how it applies to missionary work today - great examples. And I’m reading D & C and the Old Testament and “Jesus the Christ” so my hands are full haha. Trying to learn more and more everyday…Well that’s it. Hope you have a great week and luv ya.
