February 13th Mish-Mash of Dad's and Mom's e-mails

Stephanie our investigator is really nice. She is 37 and just finalized her divorce on her second husband who cheated on her. Her first husband and her had two kids who are 14 and 16. They live with her husband and his wife now. Her divorce attorney is Mormon and pointed her in the right direction and gave us the referral. She started to read Mormonism for Dummies and really liked it and then we came by and started to teach her. She runs and owns a company that designs and makes wedding dresses. They are really cool and we have been to her store. She ships them around the world to wedding dress stores and her dress has even been on "Say yes to the dress" twice. Pretty cool. She is an awesome lady and we can't wait for the 25th. Her kids live out of our area and the dad is against Mormons, so don't think the kids will be taking the lessons soon. She wants both of them to start going to the stake dances though.

Elder Austin is awesome and we are getting along really well. He has one younger sister and is from Arkansas. His dad is one of the few that don't work for Wal-Mart there. The work is going good and we teach really well together. He was a little bit of a rebel and came out a bit late. He is fine now though and we are working hard. He sold insurance before he came out and was on track to be making six figures. He want's to do finace and be a sport's team accountant or something like that.

I don't really feel any different. I feel more diciplined and feel like I can make myself do a lot more. But I feel like the same old Connor. Missionaries don't change much when they come out. They are still the same people with the same desires and same wants. I still want to watch TV and still Talk to Jess ha ha but the only difference is that I don't, because the Lord has asked me not to.

That is cool about Cody, don't tell anyone but Brazil missionaries have a bad rap. Missionaries that didn't serve Brazil say that it isn't a real mission down there because people average like 100-150 baptisms down there and just are always busy and no one ever fights them or gives them a hard time. Ha ha so whenever someone says they served in Brazil other missionaries will go "oh so you didn't serve a real mission then did ya?" Ha ha

That is cool about Teri coming down. Living with her was good and was nice to have a lot of space.

Have you sold my computer yet? If not just tell her to use that one or Jaylen's or my old one I think that I fixed it. Gosh I think we have enough computers in the house ha ha.

Tell Jaylen to stop talking to boys!

Tell Kate to punch back!(Dad told Connor that a girl was bullying Kate at school.)

Ha ha sounds like both of them are being successful though. I'm glad that they are both good at sports. That will make their high school experiences much better and easier. Tell them to keep working hard and having fun. I'm proud of them and all they are doing.

I don't think Mom will never stop running ha ha. Did you hear that Jess is running the Logan Marathon? You should give her some tips mom. You can't give up basketball either dad! I still have to kick your butt at church ball ha ha.

I love you guys and thanks for all the support you give me. Have you sent those videos yet? If you have thank you so much! Happy Valentines day!!! I love you guys and thanks for everything you do. I'll send you my baptismal picture after the 25th!
