So this week has been good. We had our
first other lesson this week, it went well. It really sucks building an area
from the ground up. So small towns have advantages and disadvantages, the
advantages are that the people most of the time are nicer, but on the other
hand the town has been completely over worked and it is hard to find people out
in the boonies. So on Sunday we had to teach primary. With two brothers that
are the only primary kids. We were given the lesson and then when the first
hour was up no one showed up to take over so we had them color and we just
watched. They were really rambunctious and they were wrestling in the middle of
class and with our missionary rules we couldn’t do much about it (we are not allowed
to touch them). So it was an adventure. So this week was my year mark, crazy to
think that I have been out longer than I have left.

So this week was fun.
I had two tradeoffs and I left the area two times. The first one I went to Thomasville
and the second one I was in Tallahassee. They were both really good for me. So
we had a really rough day yesterday. We were tracting and we ran into a Baptist
who was "concerned for our salvation" and he wouldn’t take anything
we said to him. Next we were going up to knock on this door and the owner came
up on his tractor and told us to get off his property and he wouldn’t even
accept a free family history card. I got really stressed and when we got home
that night we planned and I went to bed.
I go to send
you pictures and I always forget about some stuff that happens. I got stung by
a bee and Saturday and I also made cookies, some of them didn’t make it to the
picture.

So this week has been good. I have got
to know all of the members because there is like 15 of them. But we have been
picking up some new investigators. The work here is slowly picking up. So one
thing that happened this week is sometimes we pack a dinner so we don’t have to
drive back to the house and then back to town. So I had my sandwich and Elder McEwan
decided to go to taco bell. Well I was
broke and I have only eaten at taco bell twice here.
I
can honestly say that that was one of the most awkward moments of my life when I
walked into taco bell with a sandwich and sit down and start eating.
