I missed you guys too on fathers day. This ward did something
really fun though. After church they put all these cookies, that every
single mom baked in the ward, in a room and only dads were allowed in.
We were allowed also because we are Elders ha ha. There were so many
cookies and only guys in there, no kids and no women. It was like an
elite club or something. Really amazing and really really good. I hope
dad liked his card I thought it was funny and totally reminded me of
what he has gone through with me ha ha.
We found a new investigator. It was so amazing we went tracting and
prayed on where to go. We then saw two guys moving furniture out of a
truck and we went up and helped them. We met the lady that owns the
house and her name is Peggy Anderson. She is a 80 year old lady and
super nice. She is full of spit fire though and has a temper ha ha. I
love her to death. We are going to be helping her with some yardwork and
moving things around the house. She is Catholic and has raised 9 kids
all by herself. Her alcoholic ex husband walked out on her and her
kids when she was 30. It was terrible. She has been through a lot and we
hope that the gospel will apply to her life.
It is getting really hot here. We are in the desert part of the
mission so it kinda sucks. I'm okay though because I know it is like
super hot back home and this is nothing. Elder Kohl though is a little
bit more over weight and if he starts sweating and can't stop sweating so we kinda have to take it easy some days
and get lots of water when we go out.
We have a member of the ward who is a karate master and has like
4 black belts. He teaches us how to fight and self defense on p-days. It
is super fun. We get to spar and fight and stuff. I am pretty sure
that I look like a dork doing it ha ha.
We really aren't allowed to go to anything like any big events or Mormon night stuff because it usually is past our curfew and out of our
area's so haven't seen to much of that.
(Dad's letter)
Hi dad, happy fathers day. I really missed you the other day.
Everybody went around the room and talked about their dad. It was hard. You'll have to read
mom's e-mail to get more info I don't want to repeat information.
So I got to meet Howie Kendrick who plays for the Angels the other
day. He was having a signing at OC Sportzcardz and the Brad the guy that
owns it let us meet him. Elder Jackson got an autograph and I got a
picture with all of us with him. It was really cool. He saw us and was
like you guys LDS and we were like yeah. He then told us about how you
guys were cool and that he use to play basketball with us every monday
and that he would get smoked by these mormon kids. It was really funny.
Really good guy. I'll send the picture to you on the flash drive. I also
told Brad that you liked the Royals and he started to give me cards of
them to send home to you ha ha. I'll have to send them. Like OC
Sportzcardz on facebook and you can see a picture of me on there.
That is good that Jaylen is doing well in soccer. I hope that she
goes far with it. That does suck about Kate though getting sick. (Kate only lasted one night at her first girl's camp. She got really sick and had to come home.) Ha ha
that is funny that you had to do security. (Dad had to sleep over one night at girl's camp.) No kids running into barbed
wire fences that night huh? Ha ha.
