Well my week was good.   We did a lot of good service and we had a lot of new investigators.   I will stay in Clinton and get Elder Goodrick, he sounds cool. Motsumai is going to Kaysville.  We had a funny district meeting where some elders trained a robin to stand on its hands, so guess who got attacked by said robin? It was probably the funniest thing that happened this week but it was a long week and it’s good to be able to be here to see the harvest. Elder Flake is going to the Clinton north area so that will be fun, it’s just north of me. Elder Garret is training and we have two with a date and a father and son who are beginning to investigate.  It is great to see how the gospel changes lives.  Well not much else exciting is happening, love you all lots!

I enjoyed talking on Sunday, it was great to talk with you and everyone, we had good day. We had fun this past week not to much excitement but enough for me. I went to the temple today and stopped by some old friends of mine (former investigators) they were so surprised to see me it was fun, I’d send pictures this week but these computers don't have USB. I am doing well having tons of fun, and doing lots of good work, but still not the kind I enjoy teaching baptizing and making friends its hard right now because we are finding and that is the tough part about missions. But we have a good week planned with several lessons and Mia might set a date so that’s good it makes me happy.  Thanks Dustin for the encouragement and support I love you a lot bro.  I love you Mom and happy mother’s day to everyone! I love you lots!

I was going to call you, around 5 your time, I’ll call tomorrow and make an appointment more official, I just want to overlap with Dustin really, have everyone else be there or on the phone since they ditched on Christmas.  Any way to more important things

My week was great, we lost Elder Bohana so we only cover one stake now and there are only two of us.  One of our investigators is getting really close to baptism and she is so funny, she told us she wanted to tell us that she was thinking about it, before her boyfriend got there cause she wants it to be more personal (sorry for the atrocious grammar)

We still walk but I only have one blister! I feel lots better physically, and we our getting along swimmingly as companions and everything is going great! Yesterday we were followed by a dog a whole block so we brought it back and talk with his owner, cool guy less active but he's trying. We have had lot of disappointment lately but it’s great for otherwise, we just need to motivate our investigators and ward mission leaders, Auxiliaries and general member but other than that...

So cool Cam is getting married! It’s so exciting to see covenants made like that!  Love you guys’ lots!

Oh HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to Jordan and to any one I forgot.

My week was good, we had fun going over lesson's, but we haven't had any new and no one wants to be baptized    :( but there our other prospects and we our getting referrals and people are going to invite friends, so that’s always good. We had zone conference the other day, it was amazing. I had so much fun doing things.  Sister Olsen had some great activities for us, and I learned a lot. Everything sounds cool…  It sounds like the wedding was fun.  We found a costume shop and we are planning an adventure there.... it'll be fun.

Love you lots!

Well my week was good.  Our zone leader is going home, so we are having a party for him at 4:00 today. He is a really neat guy. We have had a lot of progress with investigators... not as much as we like but enough to keep going. It’s a walking area and we have a long way to travel on foot but I feel good.   We found a thing of coffee in the apartment, we threw it away. I thought that was funny. Our investigators are having some trouble keeping commitments, so were working on that, we may have to drop some, some are really spiritual, and some of the people we work with our less active but they’re on the way back and it is amazing to see.  Temple square is amazing!  Did you see the new city creek center just across the street? It’s a shopping strip the church built and it has a retractable roof!

Hope you guys are well, love you lots!

My Easter was packed we had a lot of people at church, and ridicules amounts of candy and other things, so it was good. We taught several lessons, picked up dates and I am being transferred to Clition (Clinton?). My companion will be Motsumai from South Africa, he is a cool guy. I met him while I was in Roy zone. We were really packed today so this letter isn’t detailed. I’ll do a better one next week; I might get my charger back too.

Our week, it was great! We had Ray and Johnny, two investigators, at priesthood on the balcony, and several other RC's and investigators at all the sessions except Sunday morning. it was a stressful, fun but it all came together in the end. We had fun with a friend of Gingrich's who brought up a game he wanted us to play it was complicated but fun, he gave us a ride to conference on Saturday, after we failed to get lunch, but all in all it was great we had all our questions answered and I hope some of our investigators a less actives watched cause it blew their concern out of the water!! Well I have enjoyed bountiful a lot and the zone is great, it’s weird to think about how long I have left (I don't do it often) but when we put it in terms of transfers to figure the mission split, it seems a ridicules short time :(, but IT's going to be fun every step of the way! I loved the talks in conference especially the prophet's, he is a great man. Love you lots!
