It's cold in the south!

We had a good long week but we didn't have too much success which is tough! But we are learning a lot, about the area and ourselves!

1. We met what seem to be some super solid investigators. They are really receptive and seem to enjoy our visits so that is good. We always like when people like us! So we are happy to have them. the wife's name is "peaches" I thought that was pretty funny but we will see what happens with them! 

2. I got to see President and Sister smith again! They came to interview everyone else! So that was cool i got to talk with them. It is amazing how much they love us and how comfortable we are with them! WHEN YOU MEET THEM YOU know that they love you which is so great! President Smith said that he trusts me 100 % and although I'm not in any leadership he knows I'm a leader. He really likes buttering us all up! But we enjoy it 

3. So p-day is way better when you have other elders. We get to do a lot more fun stuff! We actually  are able to go out and do fu stuff like sports that sisters never wanted to! So we have been doing soccer and basketball on Mondays! Oh I also learned how to cut hair so did Elder Garn! we cut each other's and it actually looks pretty good! Elders are more fun!

4. I CAN COOK! Yes y'all are reading that right, it is true!! The other night I made teriyaki chicken and rice! And it tasted good! Yes i used an oven and all! I'm actually learning how to cook since them members live so much [not sure what that sentence means but Elder Taylor told us that they don't usually eat with members in this area]! It is going to be a good learning experience! I  actually like it so if anyone has good cheap recipes send them my way!!!

5. Y'all might not believe this but it is darn cool! It has been so cold lately! YOU MIGHT SAY OH THERE IS NO SNOW but i promise it's true! It's been in the 40's most nights and it feels colder than Rexburg! It is because of the humidity! It doesn't matter how bundled you are it is still humid and way cold! You need to experience it to know what it feels like.

6. We did a big service project and a place way up in our area. It is owned by a museum and they did pioneer days. So we went up there on Saturday and helped them move things and do stuff, it was pretty interesting stuff! I'm just glad I'm not a pioneer that settled in the south that would be a rough life!!!

7. We did some awesome random service last week, it was great! We saw a wedding at a random church and out appointment canceled so we ran in and started to help in the clean up! It was great, they loved it! I helped the pastor vacuum and do a few other thing then they gave us all the left over food! We are proving that mormons aren't crazy one pastor at a time!

8. So i started a new thing. Everyday I write down a quote of the day, usually a funny quote! But darn it has been really cool. I stole the idea from a sister who served with me in Marianna! And it has been cool! I have enjoyed it and got some good funny quotes! My favorite so far is " God gave us the sunshine and we give them the moonshine!"

9. We are at a members emailing because they have a son on a mission! They knew that everything would be closed and they have a son on a mission so they decide to look out for us. They provided 3 computers and a lot of food, which we appreciate! great people and really funny!

10 So i have to cut this letter short being at a members and all but i love you all and am grateful for you and you love so keep praying for me and i will keep praying for all yall!
