Hey how are yall doin? This week has been pretty boring. There isn't much really to say. Elder Ware has had the flu literally all week. Its really been boring. But at least I like Elder Ware and can talk to him all day. The only highlight of the week was the baptism we had. It was Kassey Massey who ended up getting baptized. Elder Ware interviewed her since he has never taught her and he had to call President Cannon to come do the interview because of some things. But all turned out well and her husband is gonna take us golfing sometime soon. It will be a lot of fun and maybe I can actually learn how to golf. Anyways how is everyone in the family doing? Would it be ok if I got a smart phone when I get home? Like a droid or something? Anyways sorry this is so short. I need to get going. I hope yall have a great week and take care.

Well this week has been a awesome week. As you know I get to serve with Elder Ware. Its going to be a lot of fun. So we have a total of 12 baptismal dates. We set a baptismal date with the Bell family. They will be baptized on the same day that girl named Lindsay will be. So June 25. Kassey Massey will be baptized this Saturday. We are having a ton of baptisms and the work has really picked up. I'm excited to see what is going to happen. Elder Ware and I are going to have a lot of fun and work hard. I picked him up yesterday. It took forever cause the mission truck broke down on the way up to Boise and he was in it. I was shocked that I got to serve with him. Cause we are both going home at the same time. I think the AP's made it happen. Both of us were pretty good friends with both of them and they convinced President to put us together. We are going to have a lot of sucess in the area I think. We went and saw his grandparents last night at his Aunts house in Kuna. President Cannon said we could go and do that. His Aunt lives in Kuna and his grandparents were visiting lol. They took us out to dinner. I'm also still a District Leader and so is Elder Ware. We will both probably swap out District meetings. Anyways I hope yall have a good week. Take care.

It sounds like yall (meaning Missouri) had a pretty bad storm. I heard about it and it killed quite a bit of people. My ankle is doing much better. I was out about a week though. I think it healed so fast cause of the chiropractor. I know I probably spelled that wrong. He really worked with my foot and helped it heal back correctly. So this week nothing new really happened. This family the Bells finally came to church. I was so excited to see all 9 of them there. I'm hoping they will be baptized soon. We are also teaching another girl named Lindsay. She is really nice and is ready to be baptized. There is also another one named Todd that we are working with. Funny that they are both names of my siblings. He is a good person and I'm really glad that he asks questions. He makes it somewhat a challenge which is good cause I don't feel like I'm talking at them. So I really only went to appointments we had set. This week we will be busy though. I still don't know if I'm gonna stay here or go. It will be interesting to see what happens. I enjoyed reading Mark's email. It reminded me of when I was a greeny and has motivated me to work hard more. I hope his trainer is a good trainer and will teach him how to work hard. It took me awhile to figure that out. Things have really been turning out well in our area. I'm excited for next transfer if I get to stay. I wouldn't mind staying with Elder Bevell again. He has been a good companion and we both have gotten along really well. I'm glad my ankle and everything have healed so fast. I went and played football on it today lol. I did pretty good and it didn't bother me a whole lot. Tell Thomas Congrats on him getting his black belt and everything. Well yall stay safe with all the bad weather that is about to hit. That one is Joplin was pretty bad. Yall have a good week and take care.
