Hello Red's!


Sorry i write you a baby one.:( ill try to write you a bigger one this week. Its kind of hard to write huge ones when my time is limted, and i have to read yours first. haha, but i still have a good amount of time to write. ive got about an hour of emailing every monday.


WELL i LOved the Pics!! Kays picture was hilarious!!! it totally reminds me of her. Wow bear Lake already? geez time sure does fly by! silly koko and Kono. i hope you can train them well. they best behave if they are going to bear lake!


Guess what? i think the closest lake i am next to is Big Bear Lake!!! copy cats. haha jk funny huh? OHH thats said to hear about little orjon.:( continue taking care of buster please i want to see him when i get back! thank you for all you do sister!


Well alot went on this week it was kind of crazy! on monday we moved the other elders all day. then starting on wednesday we had exchanges with all the other elders in our district, and that was crazy. The week reallly started getting crazo on saturday i was on an exchange with Elder Moss from orem. He is coolio, but all morning we moved out an extreme Alchoholic let me tell you now from experience you never want to be around anyone who drinks hardcore! Bleh all morning for hours i was wiffing urine, and and alcohol. it was so sad. the guy we moved out was actually a very organized talented guy. He had a very clean garage full of tools, and inside he had an amazing sound system and entertainment center. He was very good with his hands. he built alot of model airplanes as well. The worst part about the whole thing was that he was there while we moved him, but he was so out of it. his exwife helped us.we took all of his stuff out, then we left him there till he sobered up.:(


On sunday night we showed up to one of our less active members who we have been seeing just about every friday. Seems like all of the sudden he got a little depressed, and stopped taking his meds. so on sunday we showed an hour after the cops had just stopped by and picked him up. His fiance didnt do anything, and he flipped out out her in front of her 2 young girls. he threatened to kill her, and the works. so she seemed very scared, because she didnt know when , and he was going to do when he gets out. All we could do was say a short prayer with her, and hope she could find somewhere to go.


Well yup there you go a full week. ahh im thinking this week will hopefully be a little better.we need to pick up some more investigators, because most of ours are not progressing, and me, and elder Holmquist have been leading our zone in tracting hours. something will give.


well ill try to tell you some funny stories next week, but could you do me a favor,and either mail or email me the playlist for final fantasy. so i know what track is which.


well looks like you get the long email this week. be sure to share it with the family:)


love you sis hope you can find a good job, and everything. ttyl.

Yeah the baptism was great!! We baptized an 11yr old boy,and he has 2 other brothers one thats 9 and the youngest is 7. hopefully we will be able to baptize them soon too. Those boys are fun lil guys Elder Holmquist and i are having pizza, and root beer floats with them tonight. I will be honest i have eaten some sugar, but i still strive to limit it. it is impossible to say no though. The first night when i had dinner in the mission home i was sitting right next to President, and Sister Reeves. so when i tried to decline the dessert i was talked back into eating it by the president. Haha. Grr blast all the other MTC Elders they saw it coming, and they were at the edge of there seats waiting for my response when the dessert came around!

Hi sister!!!! How is it going? Everything is going great right now!!!! On Saturday I was able to go to mission conference!! It was great!! The whole mission was there, about 200 Elders. Crazy fun! Elder M. Russell Ballard spoke to us. He is amazing. I can't believe I was the youngest Elder there.

Well nothing too amazing has happened to me yet, but I will share a cute little story with you, but you will need to tell Keira and Kaylee about this. TRUE STORY. So one day Elder Hunsaker was tracting a street with his companion Elder Holmquist. At one house we knocked on the door and a 19 year old girl named Caitie (actual name) answered the door. I could tell there was someting different about her. She had Downs Syndrome. We asked her if her parents were home and she said her dad was so she walked back to her dad, and said with a loud voice, "Dad boys are here!" She came back out and told us he was coming. There was silence till he came soon after. So when he came Elder Holmquist talked with him. But while they were talking Caitie said something to me and I slightly understood her, but not really. So I asked her, "What was that?" She said, "YOU'RE handsome!" I didn't know what to say so I said thank you and looked away. She said the same thing as well, "Thank you." All of the sudden before I knew it she came up to me an gave me a huge hug right in front of her dad and said, "This is my married life." Haha. It was very awkward, especially since she repeated herself. Well luckily I didn't have to endure too much of that. He wasn't interested so we left. That experience reminded me alot of home, and you. I miss you very much, and I hope everything is going well for you!

One thing I am sure of each day is that I am able to see the gospel bless peoples life each day, even if it is in a small way. Right now I am working with a guy named Brian. He is progressing slowly, but day by day he is inviting Christ in his life. The main drive he has to joing the gospel is his 4 year old daughter named Grace, who looks just like Shirly Temple.

I know that if I can help everyone to come to the knowledge of Christ, and how he suffered extrememly for all our sins. He took upon himself all the pains and sorrows of the world. He knows what we have all been through thanks to His infinite Atonement.

Well that's about all the time I have right now. I will have to write you later, but I know you can do anything you set your mind to.

Love you very much sister. TTYL.
