May 25, 2010-Email & Pics



hey whats going on?so wow i can't believe that picture of the snow! thats so crazy! i can't believe that its still cold enough to snow there. its almost hitting 100 degrees here. when we go tracting i'm pretty much sweating just standing there talking to people. its quite a weird feeling and its not the hottest its going to get this summer. i sure can't wait for that when its like 120 or something. lets see yeah its temple conference tomorrow!!!! i'm way excited except for they switched it so its just our zone. so i won't get to see anybody pretty much. i'm a little depressed about that but oh well i will probably see them at transfers in 2 weeks anyway. lets see you wanted to know more about the tornado thing. it happened i think like 2 weeks ago or a week ago monday something like that. it went off about 6 o'clock in the evening. we got a call from president gee saying that you might get a warning but just to stay close to home. so we did then they started to go off so we went back home because whos going to want to listen when there sirens going off? but lets see we came back and then we stayed inside for a little bit then our neighbors asked if we had a shelter or anything and were like nope, and there like well we got tons of room so come over if you need to. so we decieded to go out there and talk with our neighbors for a while. but yeah we basically just stood outside of it for about 30 or 40 min i think watching the clouds twist and almost form tornadoes. then they stopped so we went back in to our house then another siren went off about an hour after and so we went back outside and watched it but nothing happened around us. pretty much we just got lots of rain and a little wind. so thats what happened. we were suppose to have another warning last week but it didn't hit us at all so no worries. it was cool we met some of our other neighbors and they are all pretty cool. they are all now friendly when we see them. lets see anyway this last week was good we taught over 20 lessons which was cool. we have been using this new tracting method that the ap's showed us a few weeks ago and its helping out alot. we just start teaching them at the door instead of giving them a choice to listen or not to. and because of that we are giving on average 2 book of mormons out a day sometimes more then 4 which is was good. we got 90 contacts so yeah. we really don't have any good investigators anymore. the one that we were going to set um a date with doesn't want to talk to us anymore i don't think and is moving somewhere so thats a bummer. but we are getting alot of new investigators and i think that 2 of them will progress really well so i'm excited about that. thats about it. hows the new calling dad? you enjoying playing with the podium? when do you have to go back to work? soon? how you feeling? healed yet? oh i have branson a b-day card that i think that he will love. i'm sending it out today... well tomorrow. but he will get it soon! I think that they will all love it. what did he get for his b-day? i saw the monster truck cake thats awesome! i got my 3 shirts yesterday but not the jacket yet. well lets see i''l try to write a letter if i have some time. well thats it for me this week have a good week talk to you next week!
