Elder Mattei in Caldwell

Well its good to hear yall are having fun at Grandmas. I miss all the food lol. New Years I had another day off. We stayed up till 3 am playing risk and the next day we played basketball and then had a nerf war in the church at night. We turned out all the lights in this huge church building and played capture the flag and stuff. Things with my companion have gotten somewhat better. I think he is prideful and I yelled at him the other day. It takes a lot for me to yell at someone so that shows how much my patience has worn thin. Well one of our investigators, Aaron was thrown in jail. He committed to be baptized too lol. He said to give it some time before he would be baptized but then on New Years he got thrown in jail. So we're probably going to go visit him in jail. We are the only ones that can actually go see him since we're ordained ministers. I have no idea what he did to go to jail. But hopefully everything is ok. Well last night I stayed up playing Risk again. Elder Nelson always beats me and Elder Edwards. I hated to see LSU lost. I'm hoping the Saints play better. I got to see some of the Boise State game though. It was good that they won. Tell Grandma and Grandpa I said hi. It stinks that its getting that cold there. It has been in the 40's and 30's here and sometimes the 20's. I'm excited for transfer calls tomorrow. The time has been kinda flying by so that is always good. I'm serving with Elders Kraus, Leonard, Nelson, Edwards, Cluff, Claridge, Moos, Nelson and that is our whole zone. There are 2 elder Nelsons. I call 2 of my MTC buddies especially Elder Ware. I call him quite a bit. My trainer is pretty disobedient. His whole zone basically is. I was shocked at how disobedient they are. But he is still a good guy and I won't rat on him cause its his choices not mine. I wouldn't mind a Saints shirt and stuff and maybe some LSU stuff. I need more Saints shirts and stuff though so that would be cool to have. Anyways I hope yall had a good New Year and hope everything is going well.

Love
Elder Mattei
