P-day e-mail 9-21-10 Yeah!!

Hey all!


How are you doing? it sure feels like forever sence i have written you guys! sounds like things are going well there and they are moving along, not as fast as hoped for but cant complain right!? :) thats so good that you got done with the home place! how did the grain go?! :) i sure hope that you can get running on the moutain soon! that makes me get real excited to hear that the elk are going there! i hope bailey can get a big one! that would be sooo sweet! it was way kool! last week wen we were in Heber i actually got to hear them bugle as well! there are some MONSTER world class bull down here that come off all the reservations! crazy big! but thats great that things are going well there!

Ya i did get your mail while i was in scottsdale! they didnt forward any of it while i was there and we were able to pick it up at the end of each day! and ya our mission home is a church! pres and sis ellsworth live in a house right there on the grounds to the north of the church! it was such a amzing week! so powerful. it was pretty much a 4 day zone confrence except better! pres just gave trainings the whole time and it was so powerful! :) the meetings got out at 4 and then we went out with other missionaries in the area! i went with the mountain view zone leaders! thats in a part of mesa! it was 107-110 degrees all the days i was there andi was on a bike one of those days! wow thats a killer! haha, but it was a blast and i learned so much!!! it was really hard to be away from my area for 4 days, but we are being so blessed for the sacrifice!! we are finding new ppl to teach left and right! its so amaizng! :)

I have my first district meeting tomarro! i am kinda nervous but it will be awesome! we have a lot of new and exciting things happening in the mission! :) Me and elder edwards are doing good! its always hard to live with another random guy for a extensive period of time, but the Lord defently qualifys! haha, he is having some issues with the missionary schedual...but i am beating it out of him! Haha, jk! he is doing well and WOW, what a learning expirence this is! lots on my shoulders, but things are going so well and i am growing so much!

its way kool cause me and President get along really well and he really likes me so that helps a ton! we had lots of good talks this past week and i love it went ppl feel like they can trust you and want to work with ya! :)

It is kinda hard though, we have some missionaries in my district that are really struggling with being obediant, so i am involved with all that crap along with the zone leaders...so it is always exciting and keeps me on my toes!

we are starting to get some of the small effects of fall here! it is dropping down into the 40's at night and it feels amazing! as far as changing trees, not so much, i dont see to much of a difference in the sage brush! haha, there are alot of pines though! so thats a nice little touch of home! ;)

That is really crazy that elder Rowbury knows bro robison!! elder rowbury is awesome! he has only been out a little longer than me but we get along so so well! we have a blast together! we will be comps someday for sure....i hope! haha ;) he is great though and we would have so much fun together! :)

I forgot my stuff to send pics so i will send you the pic of my shoe next weeek for sure! thanks for that! i really do appreciate all that you do for me and the support i have! it helps out so much! and i am looking forward to my package! mail is soo good! haha, i got cary's package when i was in scottsdale and i will for sure try to include who they go to and how things go there in my emails! :) that was way kool of them! :)

so i figured out that we have alot of family down in mesa area, because i had several missionaries come up to me and told me that they have ppl ask about me intheir wards! haha thats so crazy! i am sure that at some point i will be in if not really close to on of their wards and ill have dinner with them! haha that will be kool!

so ya it has defently been a different week but we are being so blessed here! i love this area and all the ppl...even the ones who yell at me!;) ha, it is so rewarding and and a incrdible learning and growing expirece! i feel so strongly that because i am serving a mission it will help me out though all of life! and not only in church related things! so i am happy and having a blast!

I love and appreciate all that you do for me and all the support you show! it really means a lot! keep up the good work their and good luck with the grain and all that fun stuff! you all are always inmy prayers! be safe and keep healthy! I love and miss you so much! take care for the week.
