hi family how's it flowing? like a river or a stream or more like a current in the ocean?
so this week has been kind of uneventful. i don't have allot to say this week. i got your letter. and it sounds like all of the missionary's are doing great. i also got a letter from grandma/ grandpa/ creton. it was a fun letter. i opened it up and all kinds of shamrocks fell out. so i had to vacuum the floor. do you remember the card that grandpa carter had? the one with the butterfly that flew out as soon as you opened it?
im getting freaking sick of smoking! who ever invented cigarettes needs to be shot and then punched and then shot again. were teaching like six people that smoke. and they don't seem to have the desire to give it up. we have a program the makes you quit in 7 days. but people don't seem to follow it at all. you drink grapefruit juice and use Cinnamon mouth wash as soon as you wake up. and it involves alot of praying and staying away from cigarettes. but people cant even commit for seven days. and they cant get baptized until they quit. so a couple of our baptisms fell though. but we still have two in the next month. one guy is super cool he sky dives and travels all around the world. he has been though heck and back twice. so hes really humble. the other is a lady that wants to read the book of mormon all the way through before she gets baptized. but she is in like 3rd nephi.
alot of people are flaking out on use lately like we tracked into people and they say come back but then you cant end up teaching them for some reason or another. they make up the most ridiculous excuses. like o my dog is barking so you cant come in. and my favorite so far is o i have a baby in a high chair so i cant talk right now. i wish people were more strait up with us. then we wouldn't waist our time if there not even interested. but what ever one day they might. seed planted. hopefully some one reaps what we sow.
ive been taking lots of pictures. and im sending them today so bee looking for them. and also there are two tapes in there that you can listen too. hope you like them.
sounds like you dance was fun. lauren. was he a fun date or no? he looks like a creeper. wink. and how did he answer you to the dance? something about a string and a pop bottle? was it creative or kind of lame? was he crazy like our family? was he bonkers, off the wall, nuts, completely off his rocker? ill tell you a secret. all the best people are.
i was asking if you typed your own letters dad. because of the smile faces and exclamation points. i just didn't expect it. that's it not that i didnt think you couldn't type. hows the elders quorum there. i forget. are they willing to do stuff. because this ward is not very good at that. how is the home teaching? who are your family's? and who is your fellow home teacher? and who is our home teachers? and do they come alot.
i dont know what to do about the whole not wanting to go on a mission? just tell them that 25 percent of missionarys turn out to be losers but 95 percent of the people that dont go on a mission turn out to be losers. idk it hast to be a personal decision and no one else should make it for you. if your not converted to the Gospel yourself then your not going to convert anybody else. you can leave and come home and not even be converted yourself. you have to be committed before hand. people can tell if your be hypocritical.
anyways i love you all so much im out of time. but i care about each and everyone of you.
