Hello Everyone! It is Christmas time! It feels just like yesterday that it was christmas time. Time flies by so quickly. Especially out here on the mission! I was with Elder Fossat! Who is long gone to Brazil! We got to hangout with the Hoover family that day! It seems like just yesterday! Anyways, This week was super interesting! So here is the week!  Wrapping presents!  I got to help out a member wrap presents for christmas! As you all know, I am the best christmas wrapping wizard ever! So after showing me some tips and tricks the christmas present wrapping wizard strikes again and I am a professional!  Awkward dinners Every once in a while you go over to a members house for dinner and they just do not say jack squat and do not keep the conversation going! We usually are at one of these dinners for like an hour to an hour and a half but this one was interesting because we were there for 35 min. We had dinner, almost in silence because they are so weird and then they sai...

Hello Hello Everyone! I hope you are all doing well! This week has been pretty average but lets get into the highlights!  Bucking Hay! One of the services we did this last week was buck a lot of hay! Ive done this a bunch of times in the past and I still enjoy it. Something about hard labor makes me feel good afterwards! I miss it! We also got to go celebrate Brother Goodpastures birthday This day! He is so Awesome!  8 Hour Zone Conference Because of christmas president put together a zone conference that was an all day experience instead of like 3-4 hours. We got up and drove down to Medford so we were there at around 10 and president shared a message so did the APs and whoever else and then we had lunch. Then we were split up into groups and we got to go decorate gingerbread houses, and play games with the other missionaries! I was able to hangout with my boy Elder Tufuga and Holmes. It was a good time! Just was super long.  Nobody Shows! The rest of the week was pretty...

Whats good my friends! I hope you are all doing well! There is like 15 days until christmas so I hope you are all setting up and getting ready for the best day of the year!  This week was very interesting. Did a lot of things I had no idea I would be doing so lets get into it! Living in Eugene!  So Friday we got a call from the mission offce and they told us that Elder Kartchner would be flying to Salt Lake City for an apointment for his Visa. So I got to hang out in Eugene for like 3 days until he got back. We drove up Monday morning because he had to be at the airport at 11. The schedule was I was going to stay in Creswell just outside of Eugene for 2 nights. We would pick My comp up Wednesday Morning and drive back home.  Monday (Pday) Was a joke. Nobody wanted to do anything fun so we just sat at the church building with only like 2 people I cared to talk to. I did get to hangout with Elder Merrill that day. But everyone else besides the creswell elders sucked. That i...

Hello Everyone! Welcome to my email list! I hope everyone is doing well! It is 22 days till christmas! I hope everyone is excited to listen to all the mariah carey they want! Except us missionaries because that would be disobedient. Anyways, this week was very interesting. So lets get right into it! Cookies!  The other day we decided we should deliver cookies to a couple of our friends we have been trying to teach! One of our ward members has offered to make some cookies for us so we finnally took her up on the offer and we delivered 2 batches of cookies to our friends Lu Jean and Dean! Both of them are going through some hard times and probably could use prayers. But they were both super thankful and seemed super happy to see us! Lu Jean actually started crying! It was very emotional!  Temple Day!  We got to go to the temple on thursay this week! It is always a good time to go to the temple. Got to see a couple of good friends there and just felt the spirit a lot! If you...
