Missionary "Beat Box"

This is the typical house in our area.

Hi Everyone,
I got my package and I loved it. Thanks for everything I really do appreciate it! I am sorry if I am a crummy letter writer to most people. it is mostly cause our p-day only really goes from 11:00-6:00 and we have to do laundry, shop, clean up, wash the car and try to do something fun!

Life is going awesome!!!!! We did exchanges twice and I really realized how much harder my companion works than others so that was good!

Yesterday we were on exchanges and we went and saw this Kieth kid. His grandpa was a Seventy and his mom has not been to church in ten years. Kieth has not been super interested but he reallly likes us, so he has let us come by. Last night we came over and talked to him then his mom came in the rooom and I offered for her to come listen to the lesson. She said no but came into the room. We talked for a little about the church and how she had been offended. We talked about that for a while, then I changed the conversation topic and we just talked... then she went back to church topics. She turned to her son and said "Kieth I have tried to find every other church thinking there was something out there that is true. And this church has all the answers. "Then she looked at me and said "what time is church this week?" I just about jumped out of my seat. Apparently missionaries have been trying for years and she wouldn't talk to them. It was the first time I felt Like I talked to someone who I was really supposed to talk to... Pretty darn cool!!

We took one of our investigators (Jeanie) to the ward talent show. She brought her younger brother (Michael) and he wanted to get up and do the robot. so we arranged it on the spot and we had another missionary beat box... SWEET. He was way excited about it. He is a funny little guy.

Thanks for everything, I love you ALL

PS My companion and I are the only people in our apt but we have 8 missionaries in our ward.

PSS We have transfers on the 28th and I have no idea if I am staying or going so could you put the mission home address on the blog cause it will take a long time to catch up to me if I get moved... oh yeah, I have the same companion. We are getting along very well.
